I'M BACK!

Well, surgery for the breast cancer went well.  The mass and 2 lymph nodes were removed.  Pathology should be back by next week.  Minimal discomfort - just some stiffness in the area.  The real 'pain' was the reaction to the anesthetic and all the meds.  I did not handle it well, so they decided to keep me overnight, for which I was grateful.  Came home yesterday, and still trying to get out of this fog.

Just wanted to post this update, and check in on everyone.  (((HUGS))) to you all.  Catch up to you later!

    Welcome back Monika!

    Doesn't it feel good to know that the nasty little lump has left the building forever? Rest up and feel better soon. What did you decide about radiation?

    Gentle hugs and kisses,

    Alexandra
