My Mom spoke with her doctor on Tuesday, and we got good news. He said they caught it early, and he's positive she can beat this. She is having a lumpectomy next Tuesday, and they will also test her lymph nodes to make sure it has not spread to them. Post surgery, she will more than likely have 6 weeks of radiation, and she may be on an anticancer drug for a couple of years after that. He is very optimistic that it is only in the one area, and more importantly, that it can be taken care of relatively easily.
Whew! Big.Sigh.of.Relief. Of course, we aren't out of the woods yet, but it is a very positive outlook that all will be well.
My Mom is remaining positive, and has even joked that she may be getting that much wanted boob job after all. Dear Lord!
So, for now, I have calmed down, taken many deep breaths, and am looking forward to putting this all behind us. This week is turning out to have a much better ending than start, and thankfully it is almost the weekend.
Stay tuned for a post about Bella's bedroom makeover because it will be awesome!
