Hello and thanks so much for the well wishes and prayers, you are all so very sweet and so thoughtful too.
I go for my pre-op on 7/3, surgery 7/7. I got a very nice surprise today....my two cousins will be coming for my surgery....One is an R.N., so I know I will get wonderful home care! They will be here from Sunday til Thursday of that week....Then the second week my brother and his wife will be coming to help out too...I have a few dr. appts and I am not sure when I will be able to drive....All my friends work, as does Mike and my mom doesn't, so I will have lots of help and this way my mom doesn't have to do it all during the days. My dr. told me to expect to be off work for up to two weeks.
I also found out that I have to stay at the hospital for 23 hours after my surgery....I have never been in the hospital before...I have had my tubes tied and my biopsy...but that was at a surgery center and I went home within a few hours....so I am a bit scared of this...I am a bit scared of alot of things but I will get thru it all....and again, I was so happy to hear from you all, it made my day....thanks to Angelbear for forwarding everything to me from all of you.....
Please take care, and remember......do a self breast exam every month!!
