I was diagnosed on March 17, 2006 at the age of 39.

Hi,

I immediately knew I had an IBC when I found a big tumor on my breast and when my breast began to be red.

I received 3 doses of fec 100 and 4 doses of taxotere, but in August, 2006 my breast became red again, and the tumor's size increased so much.

My specialist told me that there was nothing more to do and that I just had to wait for death!

I saw another specialist at the Curie's Institute in Paris. He decided to make a combination of radiotherapy and chemo (5fu + navelbine) to reduce the inflammation and the tumor.

I finally had my mammectomy on January the 3rd, 2007.

Now the point is that there are some redness again on the wound...just will know tomorrow if it's another cancer's attack or not! Next week I will see my specialist to know if I will receive another chemo again or homonotherapy!

I have a 9 years' old daughter, and I will fight every day to see her grow up! I'm a warrior, and I won't let the IBC win!

(sorry for my bad english, but I'm french!!!)

My Heart Will Go On

Every night in my dreams
I see you, I feel you,
That is how I know you go on

Far across the distance
And spaces between us
You have come to show you go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

Love can touch us one time
And last for a lifetime
And never let go till we're one

Love was when I loved you
One true time I hold to
In my life we'll always go on

Near, far, wherever you are
I believe that the heart does go on
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart
And my heart will go on and on

You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on
We'll stay forever this way
You are safe in my heart
And my heart will go on and on
