As I know many of you were concerned about Aysemari, I decided to post to let you all know what is going on. I took her to the surgicenter for her double mastectomy this morning. We sat and talked for a while and got to know each other. She was in very good spirits and a very sweet, lovely woman. She insisted that she has someone to pick her up tomorrow, but she has my cellphone number in case things change. I then had to leave to go to my radiation therapy appointment. I plan on calling her on Wednesday to check on her and see if I can possibly visit her.

    Thank you, Renee
    For this update. Hopefully, her surgery went well & she's recovering at this point. And glad she's got someone lined up to bring her home. You were very kind to accompany her this morning - and offer to assist in the future, too. If you learn more about her progress before she can get to a computer, please keep us posted.

    Thanks, again. With best wishes to you as you continue your radiation treatment.

    Kind regards, Susan

    Thanks so much for posting, Renee
    Thank you so much for letting us know about Ayse.

    I loved how she said in an earlier post that now today is The Day she got to meet you, not just The Day she had her mastectomy. A lovely opportunity for both of you.

    Please do keep us posted, if you're able to speak with her.

    Amazing story
    Renee,

    This is really an amazing story. Anyone could have, but you did. I love random acts of kindness.

    Is this what Chen and the other original focus group members envisioned or does it go beyond that?

    Hugs

    So happy to help
    Thank you all for the kind words. I'm just trying to do something to help someone right now. The past several months (post-surgery, doing chemo and now doing rads) have been probably the most challenging and terrifying of my life. However, I've been totally blessed by many kindnesses paid to me by family, friends and complete strangers. I feel there are blessings in every journey and I certainly have been the recipient of many.

    This forum has been a Godsend to me. I should be thanking all of you.
