Mom got the initial pathology back from her surgery and it was all good news...clean margins. Which means that she can move along to the next phase of treatment. She is recovering well from the surgery and has been getting out of the house with Dad.
Yesterday she had an appointment with her oncologist who guided her through what will be happening next. She will begin chemotherapy at the end of March. This process will be to rid her body of any additional cancer cells that could have escaped the tumor. Chemo will be a treatment she has once a week for 6 months.
We are hoping to be able to make a trip out to sunny, warm Arizona next weekend to relax and spend some time away. As many of you know, my brother Tony recently bought a home there so we hope to all meet up there and spend some time together. Please pray that doctor appointments will all line up so that we can make this trip, and that mom will be feeling well enough to travel. It sure would be fun to get away and just all be together before she begins this next step in this journey.
We love you all and appreciate your continued prayers and support!
So glad to hear that everything went well and I'm continuing to pray! Love you guys!
