On June 14, 2013 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. It had not gone to other places in my body, and now I have completed chemo and mastectomy (followed by mastectomy on normal side). I have been able to work continuously, with the enormous and unending support of my patients, my staff and my coworkers. I continue to be humbled by the constant kindness provided to me by those I am supposed to be careing for, and by the many who have walked this path before me.

back to clinic
I am back in clinic. It has been like the other 5 cycles of chemo. Harder than I thought, but doable.
Though I have not had the pleasure of meeting you, I did have the opportunity in participating in the rehabilitation of several of your patient referrals while I was staff orthotist at Raleigh Ortho 2007-2010. In August, 2013, I returned to the Raleigh area and learned of your diagnosis. I just wanted to say that I covenant with you, your family and friends in praying for you complete healing. I will especially be remembering you during your surgery on the 18th.
Sincerely,
Tommy Foster, Jr. Clinical Director, Orthotics SME Clinic
