Recovery begins Sept 10th as soon as surgery is over. I go in just before noon, get some blue dye injected in me so the surgeon can more easily locate the sentinel node, then it's on. I'm looking forward to knowing for sure exactly what's in there. It could be as large as 9cm. Hold up a ruler and consider that. Then hold the ruler across your chest. Yea. That's large. So everything that comes out will be tested. And if the cancerous part is indeed larger than 5cm, then I will have radiation. I don't even know what that looks like, but I'm ready.
Thank you to everyone who has reached out and said "let me know what you need." Now that I have a date, I'll be getting my list and timeline together and posting it under "How Can I Help" on the blog, so expect that section to change substantially. I'll also be updating the calendar in the "Our Schedule" section.
Thank you again and know that we really appreciate all the love support and prayers.
Recovery has already begun, my friend! Discovering this and creating the mindset to crush cancer were your first steps in this snag in your life journey.
