I spent most of the day crying.. while looking up my chemo meds on the computer I found an article regarding lyphm node biopsy results. I read that finding single cell cancer in the lymph nodes deceases my chance of five year survival by 50%. But I'll put that into context research shows that these single cells should be treated like positive lymph nodes with Chemo, radiation and hormones. Which was already Dr Hu's plan. It's comforting to know the man is up on the research but so scary to read.
So another day comes to an end. I can't wait for sleep because the mornings always seem better.
I will not read about Breast Cancer tomorrow...
Icing the port always helped me...or at least I convinced myself it did:) And I know what you mean...it's hard not to read about it and sometimes one article leads to another leads to 20 or 30 that you just have to read....and that's ok as long as you remember that you are not any of those stats...you are you, a unique case that will be like no other and with the help from your Drs, family and friends you will not only survive but thrive when all is said and done.
