The stories of one woman's fight against breast cancer shared with the family, friends, and students she loves.

This is me with the wonderfully sensitive technician who performed the sentinal node injection. (Four needles right in the nipple, and I didn't make a sound!)
Not long ago, I was simply a mild-mannered high school English teacher, totally disinterested in cyberspace; I left that realm to my students. However, on October 4, 2008, I was diagnosed with breast cancer. Because I have such a wonderful, concerned support system—family, friends, and students—the idea of a blog was suggested to me by my Assistant Principal Melanie Sprouse. Actually, she was so enthusiastic about another teacher’s “Baby Blog,” she thought I needed something similar to share my experiences with those who care about me. Not only did she suggest the idea, but she actually created the blog spot for me! She and several of my colleagues aptly named my blog “The Tata Tales.”
