Kirsten's Diagnosis: invasive ductal carcinoma- chemo, surgery (lumpectomy/ axil node dissection), radiation DX Jan. 2003
How Kirsten Thrives!
I thrive by fully engaging in my life. I have worked hard to regain my strength (although different than before). I took on new challenges. Soon after my surgery, while still in treatment, I joined Team Survivor Madison- there I have participated in several triathlons, and have taken up Dragonboating. That has led me to become a coach, and to several international competitions.
Something good going on. In addition to my adventures on water (canoe trips, dragonboat training, stand up paddleboarding) I love spending time with my husband, and fur babes (dog & 2 cats). I really am looking forward to the colder weather so I can pull out my fun warm clothes, and test them.
