Well, as I type this I am self medicating on Peanut M&M's which my dear friend DD gave me as a gift. I have now eaten TWO packs of them! Not good, but GOOD.
I don't like watching and waiting for the phone to ring, but today has been one of those days. We ran errands yesterday late in the day as I am still unable to drive and when we got home there was a message from my surgeon. Having been going to doctors for so long, when "they" are on the message and not their nurse - it cannot be a good thing. The message said- we still had work to do.
He asked when I was able to connect with him if Nick was here and could be apart of the conversation - ok RED LIGHT! The cancer is in my node and the margins are NOT clear. So we are basically back to phase two, part two and will be going back into surgery to hopefully get the rest of them. The MRI did not show what he saw in the pathology report that came back. I was not due to go back till Monday for post op but he felt I needed to get on the surgery schedule and move ahead rather than wait.
As I sat with my head in my hands, all I could think was well, I know what to expect surgery wise and somewhat of recovery. I think the thing that hit the hardest was it being in the nodes. Could mean I would have to stay overnight for this trip to Baptist, but hey, what's a little hospital food in the midst of all this adventure - right!
Don't have the date yet, thinking it will be next week.
