moving forward after treatment

This is my story, i have just completed 9 months of treatment for breast cancer including lumpectomy,chemo, radiotherapy and a mastectomy. i decided that i wanted to turn a negative experience into a positve one so i am undertaking the 3 peaks challenge in 24 hours to raise funds for breast cancer care and willow wood hospice and have started training. i finished radiotherapy 18 days ago and yesterday with the help of my beautiful daughter and 6 of my good friends i climbed Snowdon. It is possible to move forward after breast cancer and im doing it

Climb for Life - Good for you, that is a wonderful story. I have had WLE, chemo and am now half way through rads and my energy is coming back too - not sure if I am ready to climb a mountain yet but you have certainly inspired me.

good luck
