Good News
I met with my doctor today and went over the results of the PET Scan - and it is good news! The cancer has NOT spread beyond the affected lymph node, and I am officially in stage 2B breast cancer. I am relieved to have this knowledge, and I finally feel confident saying that this is a fight that I can and will win. I just have to get through 15 more weeks of chemo, surgery, and radiation, but I know I can do it because I have so many wonderful people supporting me and cheering me on. Thank you again for all your prayers and support. Really, I can't say thank you enough. And please keep praying for us! We will need it!

Sarah I am SO relieved!! This is great news (as far as cancer news can go anyway!) When is your next chemo treatment? How often will you have to go?
ReplyDeleteI have been thinking of you and praying for you all day. I am so glad to hear that the cancer has not spread. As always let me know how I can help you!
ReplyDeleteMy next chemo treatment is on 8/6 (next Thursday), then every two weeks for 14 weeks after that. My hair should fall out by next week, so I'm debating shaving it off this week (but which would be worse - clumps of hair on my pillow, or tiny hairs that are impossible to clean up?). If you all want to come shave my head for me, it might actually be fun, and might keep me from crying!
ReplyDeleteThis is great news. I've been thinking of you all week. I know you still have a lot to go through but it's wonderful to know it's curable and that you can be well again. Love you Sarah.
ReplyDeleteHello Sarah, no intention of being intrusive, Keith mentioned your blog. All of us at WesTech are pulling for you. We love you and your family and feel very fortunate to work with Keith. He is very talented, and not a day goes by when he does not in some quiet way profess his devotion to you and your boys. If we may help in any way, we are glad to do so.
