June 2, 2010
The doctor called and asked me to come in today. He said he had good news and bad news. The good news is all the margins were good on my breast so it is okay. The bad news is there was cancer found in my lymph nodes. Tomorrow I will undergo surgery to remove all the lymph nodes on my left side. I have Stage 3 cancer.
The next step will be meeting with the oncologist. The oncologist will be here in Shawnee. My doctor is in the process of scheduling that now. So the chemo should start in July.
I am feeling a bit blue with this news. In the scheme of things it won't change my treatment much, but it my add radiation after the chemo is over. Things will work out and I will be teaching this fall.
Thank you for all the prayers. Ken and I appreciate them.
