WASHINGTON POST Tuesday, February 16
TAURUS (April 20-May 20).
The silliness around you that held no magnetism yesterday now seems tempting. What would happen if you cut loose and had a little more fun? Would others still respect you? Probably. Go for it.

My War Against Triple Negative Breast Cancer
Welcome
On September 28, 2009 I was diagnosed with stage 3 Triple Negative breast cancer. They found a 9 cm tumor and another smaller one while I was nursing my son. I started 17 rounds of chemo: ACT plus carboplatin. Had a double mastectomy on April 6, 2010 followed by 6.5 weeks of radiation. At the time of my surgery I had had a complete pathologic response to the chemo - no evidence of disease. Here's what I learned along the way:
