Just weeks after learning she was expecting her fourth child, Stephanie Wysaski felt a lump on her chest.
Tests confirmed that she had a breast cancer called invasive lobular carcinoma, which is harder to detect on mammograms.
When the baby was 15 weeks, doctors at Northwestern Oak Brook prescribed a chemo regimen both Stephanie and the baby could tolerate.
On Tuesday, Wysaski delivered her baby girl early at 34 weeks.
"So as much as I'm in my own head thinking, cancer, cancer, cancer and spiraling, my kids still have school pick up and drop off, and they still want cuddle time. I just didn't have time to worry. life doesn't stop," the suburban mother said.
