......to cancer in the NODES!
Hallelujah! The doctor called today to confirm the results of the surgery on Monday 10/21. He says he's got nothing! In simple terms.....the second surgery shows that the cancer did not go beyond the sentinel nodes and this is a VERY GOOD thing. The cancer stops here - time for Patti to get on with it and get well!
Patti was not having a good week, as the surgeries and cancer talk has worn on her (I hear you on that sista!). She really needed to hear good news and we are happy to report that the cancer did not spread beyond the first line of node defense - YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Next steps:
-Follow up visit with the surgeon tomorrow to check on things.
-Next week - meet with more doctors to get the recovery plan in place
Time to get on with her life.....you got this one Patti! Anyone who can rock hair like you did in this picture (thought you could use a smile right about now - circa 1991), can fight better than a girl!
Keep the faith Patti and don't give up!
Excellent news!
