Surgery on Tuesday

Saw the Specialist again yesterday, and there are no other lumps that need to come out, Yay!!

I got my My Journey Kit in the mail when I got home from the appointment too.  That was great timing, although reading all the info was a bit overwhelming for me today.  I had to resort to watching Dr Phil, to take my mind off it.....  :o)

I have a pre-op consult on Monday and then go back on Tues morning for needle to pinpoint which lump to take out and the surgery. 

I think after the op, Hubby and I go and see a Fertility Specialist to find out our options.  I really hope that we won't have to go down the IVF road.  But, could be a possibilty when we get the results back form surgery.

Overall, Hubby and I are doing Ok.  He is so sweet, every night when he gets home, he gives me a big hug/kiss and askes how my day was and how I'm feeling.  I know he is really scared about what is to come, but I hope that seeing me calm and still smiling, he is comforted that I am ok.

So, we get another weekend free from Cancer Surgery Recovery. Hmm have to think of something we can do on, hope this weather keeps up.

Take Care Ladies.

    hi Rach, good luck for Tuesday, glad you got the my journey kit, it will be invaluable to you through your journey, everything is a bit overwhelming at first, but at least the kit, has been done with a lot of women who have been there, and is in a language we can relate to. i used the journal all the way through, and found it great having all my notes and appointment, and i wrote questions i wanted to ask on my visits to doctors. enjoy your weekend, and please let us know how you are going. Take Care  Moira
