Hello All!

It's so nice to be able to communicate again.

I Saw the Chemo Doctor on Monday. He said all margins were clear. Then he proceeded to "dig" (Really hurt!) and feel all over the chest and under the arm pits and sides of the chest.

Long story short no chemo. I was so relieved but at the same time I am finding it hard to rejoice at any good news as I pray everyday for all the people afflicted with this disease and do not want to upset people who must have it.

On the same token, I realize that some peoples TX forgo surgery and get chemo and do not have to face the "pains" of surgery. We are all in this War together but fight in different battles with the same intention of destroying this beast within us.

I had my mask fitted yesterday (Friday). No problems, no discomfort. All went very well and smooth. They put tape on the mask and marked it with ink in lue of tattoos on the skin.
