This spring has been a wild ride, and frankly it's not a ride I want to be on.
After my last post, I got called back for a secondary mammogram. After that I was next called in for a biopsy. Talk about anxiety through the freakin' roof. Freezing had to be redone as the first bunch did not take and I felt the scalpel and felt the first sample being taken. Not fun. Ten more samples later and some vomit inducing worry, I found out that I have breast cancer. Caught early but it's still there and it's Grade 3 which is aggressive. It's non-invasive which is good. After more tests, I found out that my lymph nodes are behaving; which is excellent news. I had my MRI with contrast this week, and will go back next week to talk to the surgeon about my results and talk about surgery. So far it's looking like a lumpectomy but I don't know if radiation will be in the cards or not. I am just taking things one appointment at a time. No sense in worrying until it's time to worry.
Tomorrow to get our minds off of stuff, we are going to Grandad's Donuts in Hamilton and then down to the Pier to watch roller-skaters. It will be nice to get out of the house, have a treat and enjoy the DJ.
Other than this weekend being a long weekend, nothing exciting is planned. It's too cold outside. We will take the dog for his daily hike (get our stupid exercise for our stupid mental health) and just try to catch up on puttering around the house.
Hope for a peaceful week and good news next week! 🤞
