Do not worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank Him for all He has done. Philippians 4: 6-7 (NLT)

We had a great vacation at DisneyWorld! It was so much fun spending time with both my parents and Bryan's parents, as well as my sister-and brother-in-law and niece. The kids had so much fun at the parks, seeing all the characters and riding rides. But mostly just being with each other. It was a trip we planned so long ago, but it ended up coming at such the perfect time. I needed the mental break and break from going to all the doctor appointments.
We arrived home Saturday afternoon. I didn't think I was feeling anxious about coming home...but was we approached San Diego I began thinking about the week ahead. And reality started to set in. Stranger yet, as we walked through the terminal I saw advertisement after advertisement for Susan B. Comen! It was crazy! I guess it was weighing heavier on my mind than I thought. Then came the migraine at 3am. I'm better now!
We met with the medical oncologist today. This was our first meeting with her. I wasn't sure what to expect for this meeting since she is the one to make decisions on chemo and hormone therapies. Neither of which I thought I would have. But she was very insightful (again!). And she will be my ongoing doctor over the next several years to make sure I stay cancer-free. She will evaluate the pathology report after my surgery this Thursday to determine the "next steps"-- which is still most likely radiation therapy.
So I off to surgery Thursday. My wonderful neighbors have planned meals for us beginning Thursday (THANK YOU!) and playdates for the kids. We continue to be so blessed by everyone around us. Thanks again for your prayers and kindness. We will post again on Friday after the surgery so you can have an update.
