Patti's first field trip after surgery, a visit to the doctor, and news we wish we could lose :-/
Hello to all,
Patti finally got to get out and take in some of this nice weather! Mike took Patti on a field trip was to the grocery store (see photo with the new sweatpants Mike got her for her adventure!)
Patti said that it was a tiring experience for her. Of course Mike did all of the shopping and pushing of the cart, but Patti says that the actual walk through the store exhausted her! I guess that will happen after a 3 hour surgery of tearing up muscles and all that yucky stuff.
Doesn't she look proud in those new duds? Mike has been so supportive through all of this.....makes me think, what could we do for the guy who is dealing with all of the tough stuff that we are not there for, or know about? thank you Mike! Not only for being there, but for really taking care of Patti during one of the most difficult struggles she will EVER face in her life. We love you!
Patti has been so positive through all of this, it simply amazes Mike and I when we talked about her positive spirit. This is exactly what we need of Patti to get her well and keep moving forward.
Patti had a tough start to the day today. She was very down this morning. Then, she got crummy news.... ugh....we all have them, but not like this! Unfortunately, the second results came back and the Sentinel nodes show cancer cells - BUMMER :-/
So, we are not done with this fight yet! On November 5th, Patti will undergo yet another surgery to remove these nodes and test. Our goal and prayer is that they come negative. This would be the best possible outcome. Thank goodness we have this blog to keep you posted as this information is just too much for her to repeat again....and again.....and again....you get it, right?
Patti will do her best to see the tree and not look at the whole forest, and we ask that you keep her in your prayers tonight. No prayer too small!
More to follow tomorrow....see you then :-)
