Hello Everyone,
I am beginning the countdown to the first step in my treatment. It begins Tuesday when I will be getting a bilateral mastectomy (getting rid of both) as well as begin the reconstruction phase (going for DD's). Just kidding... I was told I will only be in the hospital for 1, maybe 2 nights. Once I complete the healing process, which will be about a month, then they will begin chemo. We will find out if I need radiation after surgery, where they will test the lymph nodes for disease. I am feeling a little anxious but confident in our decision to be proactive.
I truly appreciate each and everyone one of you that has offered prayers, thoughts and advice. The thing I have noticed is that it definitely helps to talk about it and realize that if peope have questions, its only because they care and want to do anything they can.
I especially want to thank everyone of my family members and friends who have given up their personal time and energy to help make this situation the most postive that it can be.
I LOVE YOU ALL.
Ali,
ReplyDeleteYou would look just like a Barbie with DD's haha. But seriously, you are one tough lady and I admire the way you are handling all of this. Please know that you and your family are in my prayers. God Bless you !!!
