    Odds are SO in her favor. When they find it is benign, that can be good for opening up talk of options and tests to help prevent it from ever being cancer. Easy for me to say, but much too early to get scared.

    She is still young so that's the biggest thing that helps. I hope it's all going to be needless worry.

    It is good she found it and is getting it checked - hopefully it will just be a cyst and if that is the case then she won't need to have anything done - I have MANY cysts and while I have been told they can get bigger and hurt a bit as I get older (I am 42) they aren't actually harmful. I have a family history of breast cancer (my mom passed away from it 20 years ago) and when I find something I know it is scary, but they can usually let you know what is going on fairly quickly, so she won't have to do the waiting game for too long. And hopefully the news will be good - and if it isn't great the good news is she is young and medical science has come so far that her outlook is hopefully very good either way. I wish her good luck and hope for a good result for her test. It is good she has her boyfriend there and has you to lean on too - that will help a lot.

    Thanks for your well wishes. I am going to propose to her that we plan on entering a Run for the Cure next year no matter the outcome. Perhaps one day we can all look back on cancer as a historical footnote -- we can always hope!

    The doc thought I had breast cancer.....turned out it was benign. But it was a month's of hell. Let's hope it is nothing.

    I am sorry that you had to endure that but I'm glad that it turned out to be nothing in the end.

    I just stumbled upon this thread. I'm glad to hear it was just a cyst. I'm a 3 1/2 year breast cancer survivor....I was scheduled for another surgery last week but it was cancelled because I am ill. It was rescheduled for December 3. I'm glad to hear that she is fine. The power of prayer works :)

    Just be there for her.

    That is all you can do. And if you'll take it I will throw up a few prayers for strength and wisdom for your daughter and you.
