I too was like you. I wanted it out and over and done with. I had a few weeks wait during my healing process. During this time I went away on vacation... I know crazy right? But I figured at home I would cook and clean so I might as well have someone else do it for me and spend time with the family.
In the interim it is good to read up on what you are facing and prepare yourself for what is to come. It's not an easy treatment but it is doable. Best of luck and we'll be here to help and listen when the time comes. hugs
