Hi all, hope everyone is doing ok today, I am doing good atm had a little cry the other morning I think that is cause I have been keeping most of this emotion locked inside.
I got my results on tuesday and they are 99.9% confident that they have removed all the cancer, Now to start 6 weeks of radiotherapy and then go onto tomoxifen for 5 years. I havent decided as yet where I will get treatment, I have a choice of Morrabbin or Frankston Private......Since I work at Hawthorn and live in Frankston either i guess will be suitable and both will cost about the same in the long run. Guess it will depend on the time slot that I will require once I talk to my work in changing my shifts to suit.
I had a lovely surprise visit from my daughter and grand daughter from Brisbane last week I think my daughter needed to be near me to make sure I was doing ok.
I know I am at this stage lucky to have a good result and I know some of you all are going thru worse than me, and I just want to say thank you to you all whom have been in contact it has all helped and I dont feel alone in this journey.
The oncologist has agreed for me to have my vein surgery on the 22nd of this month before starting radiotherapy.
Thanks again to all, havea good weekend....Selina
