A lot has happened in the past couple of weeks. I have seen so many doctors I am beginning to have "white coat syndrome". I have had a sentinel node biospy that didn't take a node.....interesting how that was explained to me. I have been told that I need chemo and then told that I don't need it.
And now I am waiting for a date for surgery. I have settled on a bilateral mastectomy with a DIEP "free flap" reconstruction. The surgery will last around 8-12 hours and I will be in the hospital for around 5 days, two of which will be spent in ICU. Then 6-8 weeks of recovery. I plan on taking my time getting back to work.
It sounds rough but I am pretty strong and have alot of faith that God will take care of me during it all. Now we just need to get Tom healthy enough to take care of me.
Life is what happens when you're planning other things. Peace.
