So, the Really Good News is that the pathology report is negative (Hurray!!) so they didn't find any other cancer and the surgical margins are clear. That means no chemo, no radiation and no more surgery. What a huge relief this is for Bob and me. We were so overjoyed that we went to King David's for dinner after the doctor's appointment and I celebrated with a glass of wine (I ate too!).
The Not So Bad News is that the drains are still in and will be until my next Doctor's appt. on Monday. But, they did put a waterproof dressing on them so I can now shower. So, a glass a wine, a shower....and I'm positively giddy!!
Stay tuned for the next episode of "The Drains".

Hi Renie,
ReplyDeleteWhat fantastic news- congratulations! What a relief that must be (for both of you). I guess keeping the last 2 drains in for a little while longer isn't so bad, when you compare it to the good news. I'll keep sending you the good stuff and look forward to seeing you soon.
Blessings,
Mary
Congratulations on the negative pathology report! Glad to hear that you and Bob were able to celebrate out on the town a bit, and that you could enjoy some creature comforts in the way of wine and a shower:)

Hi Renie,
ReplyDeleteI just found out about your surgery from Laurie. I really hope you're doing okay. It certainly was quite a shock to hear about the cancer (as I'm sure you were!!!!). But, thank God, you're doing well!! Laura was good enough to send me your blog. I love the bed picture - but, given my area of "academic" interest - why wouldn't I (-:
If there's anything you need... I'm the man!
