    Update

    Once again I thank everyone for their advice and emotional support.

    Sadly my mom suffered a complication from her surgery 2 days later and had to be brought back. She's doing better and should be back home sometime next week.

     

    As for her pathology report,

    The Dr confirmed 15 minutes ago it was stage 1a and was contained to the polyp that developed in her uterus. It was only 11ml and didn't spread to her ovaries, lymphnodes or any other nearby organs =). The dr still reccommends chemo and possibly no radiation.

    Thank you all once again, this was the best news we had all week!!

    Moonlets, sorry to hear your

    Moonlets, sorry to hear your mom had a complication and hope she recovers from that quickly.  It is great to hear it was contained to the polyp, but even at Stage 1A, if it is a Type II form - which is agressive - chemo would be recommended.  There are quite a few of us here with a 1A who had it.  There is a whole thread dedicated to it: https://csn.cancer.org/node/308416

    Please let us know how she is doing and if she has any questions - we are here for both of you.

    Thanks for the concern! She

    Thanks for the concern! She should be coming home by the end of this week =)

    Yes, she's defintely getting chemo but her Dr for some reason said she'd only get *a little* chemo,and possibly no radiation which I find odd since I was following that forum you linked said its best to do both.

    However, her Dr said the board was going to have a discussion about that when she starts her treatment in August cause it might have alil cancer residue left in her endometrium lining due to the D&C as the dr said but they have to discuss that as well.
