We saw Linda's surgeon this morning and the news is about the best we could hope for. She will have a lumpectomy and 2 to 4 nodes removed for biopsy, followed by 6 weeks of radiation. Still, she does have cancer and is still upset about that but the surgeon definately lifted our spirits. Her surgery will be next wednsday afternoon.
