Good for you, Liza!
When you have two lists of stuff to look at - i.e. all the things that could go wrong (the bad list) OR - all the things that could go right, (the good list) you may as well choose to look at the good list and all the good people here that have survived what you are going through. When my son was diagnosed with his cancer, as we were walking out of the exam room, one of his interns looked at me and said the my son's surgeon was very "aggressive" in his treatment of patients and I am so very glad he was just that kind of doctor. Prayers going your way, right now!
