Hello my family and friends;
Have I ever told all of you how much you mean to me and my recovery? Well let me tell you now. I'm positive that your prayers and well wishes were heard and helped to assure a good report for me. As Harry said the cancer was removed via a lumpectomy and the mass in the right breast (benign) was also removed. The sentinel lymph node at my left arm was also removed and appeared clear. We will have the final report on the node and the margin on the tissue containing the cancer either late Monday or early Tuesday.
I'm tired but relatively pain free. Meds take care of that. I am beginning to get little messages from the "Kingdom of the Lymph" I understand that may be with me for a while. Aggravating but small stuff when compared to what might have been.
Harry is a good nurse. I think I'll keep him - after all I do love him.
It's back to bed for me. Again thank you all a million times over for your concern, prayers, and support.

The power of prayer is awesome!!

Glad your pain level is relatively low. Better life through chemistry. Continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers.
Yes your words sound strong and optimistic. I am rooting for you and thinking of you. It's wonderfully healing to just put yourself in he hands of those who wish you the best. Harry is great. Take those pain meds and keep relaxing, this too shall pass.
Big hug...Sue.
Auny Mary Ruth: I could not have said it any better than the comments of the kids on your blog. I never thought for a second that the out come would be anything but good for you kid.

I love good news. Especially yours.
So glad to hear the fantabulous news. Been thinking about you all the time. Good to see that you are up and moving enough to post. I'm sure 'Pa' is a great nurse. Ask him to paint your toenails for you... he did that for me when I was little and wasn't feeling good.
Love to you!

Mary Ruth: Should Harry decide to paint your toe nails for you, you may want to select the color.. you may also want to mention to him that he use a small brush instead of a spray can..Ricky
I always use Krylon Industrial Tough Coat Acrylic Enamel. I buy it by the case.
Harry: you may want to return the one case of Army green paint for some nice red or pink. Dont forget the drop cloth and masking items......Ricky
Waiting to hear the final word. Hope it's today and early.
