So, time for another update. As of last Thursday, Chemotherapy is done! Twenty weeks! My fingernails and toenails are still hanging on. A little lifting, but I still have them!
Surgery is coming up on May 16th at 1:30 PM and I am getting both nervous and excited. It's surgery! The only other surgery I've had is the surgical biopsy an the install of the power port for chemo. The doctors will check the sentinel nodes (lymph nodes) to see if the chemo cleared out the cancer, finish the lumpectomy by getting some margins and take out the power port. When she is done the plastic surgeons will go to work. One on each side. They are giving me a reduction and lift. Hopefully this will help with some of the neck and back problems.
Once I heal up from surgery I will have to get radiation. More on that later...
Things are going well and I feel very positive.
Glad you are up to the challenge. Strong woman you are. :)
