Something Promising

So, my OB does not practice at the hospital where I am being treated for my breast cancer. She was going to try to get emergency privliages to practice there but that's not going to work out. The mastectomy is Monday and I was beging to get a little worried about who was going to keep an eye on the little guy during my surgery. Well my breast surgeon called the doctor that helped her with the 2 other patients she had that were pregnant and I scheduled an appointment with him. He called me this evening, I guess to put my mind at ease, it seemed to work and that is something promising. He seemed genuinely concerned and let me know that he would be there for my son if necessary and went over a few things we will discuss at my appointment tomorrow. This guy truely sounded like he has my baby's best interest in mind and I am very encouraged.

There are other encouraging things this week. My liver, lungs and spine are all, miraculously, cancer free and my doc says that if the pathology from the surgery is good there won't be any chemo and no matter what no radiation. Can I get a HELL YEAH!
