Strike up the band. Sound the drum. The sentinel node was negative, which is really positive news.
I'm came home from the hospital this morning, and I'm doing really well. More details later.
Happy Happy Thanksgiving!
BACKGROUND
- Cathleen Watkins
- Glendale, California
- I wrote the blog, "Merely A Detour," in the months following my diagnosis of breast cancer. It's my story, but it could be yours, or your wife’s, or your mother’s, or your daughter’s. You probably know a woman with breast cancer. If you can’t think of anyone, ask a friend, and he or she will know someone. It’s everywhere. We all have to take action. Even a small act is a good start. Donate to more research. Do a self-exam. Get your annual check-up. Fund-raise for better prevention and screening. Call a friend and prod her into action. After months of treatment, I'm just getting my life back on track, and I'm writing a new blog as I go. (www.eatingmygarden.blogspot.com) The first blog chronicled an unexpected setback, and the next is about moving on. Whichever blog you're reading, the underlying theme is the same: It's not the obstacle, but how you deal with it, that matters.
