Thanks for your input. Right now I am leaning towards going after it full on. I keep remembering when I was a kid and lived in a tough neighborhood in Brooklyn, NY. My big brothers taught me how to fight. The "bottom line" was always that if someone attacked you, fight back with all you had. If you were gonna punch somebody in the face, throw all your weight in it and knock 'em the hell out. That is just how I think now. I guess it's all speculation till the report comes back on the nodes. I will just try to enjoy my 11 days till surgery and then take it from there. Denise
