What sad news about Elizabeth Edwards (John Kerry's wife) this week... definatly felt through out the entire breast cancer community. The worst news you want to hear.. not only is it "back" it's spread to the bones!!!. I have been lifiting up her and her young children 6 & 8 in prayer all week! May she seeek God's face and his will in her life.
Cancer is such a crazy place to be. My hair is starting to grow back.. I basically have very dark "peach-fuzz" going on.. but my hair grows very fast so hopefully before long I can stop covering my head everywhere I go.
My tumor is officially GONE! It has responded so well to the chemo that it is no longer detectable inside my body!! Woo hoo!! I still have 7 scheduled chemo's left UGH!!
I will have surgery.. I am now leaning more towards just a single masectomy with the "tummy-tuck" procedure (If ANYTHING good comes from this surgery I'm getting a tummy tuck!! ha ha ha). Who knows though, I change my mind a lot. Official American Cancer Stat's say that I only have a 2% of getting cancer in my right breast.. so really.. I think I might keep her! But... I only had a 2% change of getting cancer in the first place. I am still praying!! Such a BIG decision to make.
Life is good, God is good, it's starting to warm up but of course, I live in MI it will get cold.. spring will not be here until May.
I'll post prob. 2 times a week now that I don't have internet at home, so keep checking!
Thanks for your love and prayers :) Shanda :)
