So, my mom had her biopsy a couple of days ago. She was nervous, but went through it like a champ. She said she didn’t really feel the needle and the process was not painful. This was music to my ears because my mom has been warrioring through some stuff in the last months.
At about 11a I got a text from my mom that said the office called her and for me to call her on my lunch. Uhhhhhhh…calling NOW! #IKnowMyMother #ThereAreMoreThanResultsToReport The biggest thing, the biopsy was…BENIGN! Praise God! Then, she kept talking! #HereItGoes The mass is benign now, but it is best to remove it via surgery to keep it from changing. #Great #SugarHoney
I couldn’t even feel anything! At this point, what is there to feel??? I have been functioning in auto-pilot since her surgery. Every time I tried to switch gears, a shoe dropped. And I guess I should be a bit more positive. I do realize that God is working on my family. We are in the middle of a stormy season and through it all, He is our only navigator and pilot. But man, oh, man…can I breathe for just a second? #StillGrateful #StillPositive #AlwaysBlessed
The thought from the nurse is that surgery should happen prior to her starting chemotherapy and radiation. This may get a little tricky because C&R shouldn’t be delayed for much longer. We have to make sure Arnold doesn’t return.
Next week, the official C&R treatment plan and start dates will be ironed out. We will also meet with the boob surgeon to discuss how soon this surgery can happen and the recovery time behind it. There isn’t any time to waste here.
So, I have come to terms with where I am in this season. I…am in a car…mom is the front passenger…chemo, radiation, and boob surgery are in the back seat. If I am being proactive, I realize there is still a trunk and glove compartment in this car. I just pray I don’t have to fill them!
