My name is Tracy, I feel like I am about 210 years old right about now : ) I was a hospice RN case manager for over ten years when I was diagnosed with Stage 4 breast cancer with mets to the bone and liver in December 2013. What a wonderful Christmas gift that was! I have one son who is 20 and I raised him as a single mother. Once diagnosed, I decided it was time to "live". I went on various road trips, first to California, then a road trip with my son to Kentucky and Tennessee, then New Orleans and Montana to see family there. I am from Michigan and one day decided I did not want to see another Michigan winter. I now live in the Florida Keys with my wonderful boyfriend who also is battling liver disease. As a nurse I have seen how this usually ends, but I am a fighter and I am not giving up yet. Much love and respect to all my mets sisters and brothers.
