Well, today they took out a "range" of lymnodes (node dissection) and will again test them to see if any more of them have cancer. I have a drain this time and can't take a shower for awhile and I'm not allowed to lift anything over 15lbs for 3 weeks. Now it's crampin my style a bit!! So I guess I'm not going back to work as soon as I thought.
My Aunt Sandy came in from St. Louis to help out with going to Dr. appointments. Chris went to my 1st surgery and again today. He has been absolutely wonderful throughout this whole thing and is my best friend and supporter as always (I am very lucky to have him!), but unfortunately he still has to bring home the bacon. We thought it would be a good idea to have someone to go with me when Chris can't so we have more "ears" in the room when talking with the docs. Thank you Chris and Aunt Sandy! Mom will be coming later when treatments start.
We will be meeting with my surgeon on Monday, so hopefully we will have the pathology report back by then. And then on Wednesday, we meet with my Medical Oncologist and my Radiation Oncologist. I am hoping that we will get lots of info next week!
