Week of Feb 21
CT Scan of Chest, Abdonmen and Pelvis all came back clear without any indication cancer is detected somewhere else. Still waiting on complex pathology from specialist at Credit Valley Cancer Center.
Setting up OR time for Mastectomy within 2 to 3 weeks. This will include the removal and dissection of a couple of lymph nodes to determine staging. After that we will make a plan with Credit Valley Cancer Center for remainder of treatment (or additional surgery if more removal of nodes is required)
While still a long Journey ahead, all signs are pointing to Breast Cancer only.
The comment, “thank goodness for small mercies” come to mind. Both Dad and I will keep optimistic that the other procedures will go as well as can be expected given the diagnosis. We appreciate you keeping us informed. We keep you all in our thoughts all the time.
