I feel like I'm dancing through the ocean spray waving my hands gleefully in the air while my smile is from ear to ear because the cancer is out of MY BODY! Also, my pathology did come back CLEAR!!!!! Let me say it again: MY PATHOLOGY IS CLEAR!!!!
I have never been so over-joyed in my life! My doctor removed 17 lymph nodes and 2 of those nodes were malignant tumors. However, the margin around these nodes were clear, clear, clear. He removed a node up at the apex of the node area to make double-sure and it was completely clean. He took other biopsies from my right breast area -- all clear. Just writing it makes me cry and laugh at the same time all over again. It's so wonderful. I prayed for this, others prayed for this, and I know my angels around me embraced me this whole time through it. It's so wonderful I cannot express, once again, properly.
Suffice it to say, my family and I are gleeful. I still have a lot of recooperation to deal with and then the radiation, but knowing this positivity is here, I'm on top of the world. As we approach this Labor Day Weekend, I cannot help but reflect on the fact I'm living, I'm truly ALIVE inside and out and a new beginning is here. I will write more later, but I just had to spread the news! What better news could there be but to celebrate LIFE! I'm so grateful and cannot thank those around me as well as those who have been spiritually with me through this. I have a lot more to write about, but for now LITERALLY my Cup's Half Full -- cuz it is. My breasts are half the size they were -- LOL!! What an amazing job my docs are doing. My reconstruction is just beginning, but my bilateral mastectomy is finished!
Ciao, Ciao! Must take my nap....Rest and recuperate!
