Hi @donnadeno!, I'm glad you found us. Thanks for sharing the pictures, they look like fabulous times and great memories. You've been through a lot already! I hope your appointment went well today. It's good to get the answers that you need, and a plan to move forward.
Are you feeling ok with your progress to recovery from surgery? It can certainly take a while, be patient with yourself.

No need for chemo. I was very lucky that my cancer was found accidentally with a CT scan for my heart. However the doctor thought we should wait 3 months and repeat the test. I thought no way. Another doc ordered a PET scan and it confirmed need to see surgeon. He found not just the one nodule that lit up but a second one also. I will have CT scans twice a year. I’m sore and still short of breath. Difficult in Florida to do much walking. I do get a little discouraged when I look at things that need to be done around the house, wishing I could do more. I know I need to be patient but that is difficult at times.
For now I am so grateful my cancer was found so early. I always recommend to friends that they need to be their own best advocate and to research everything. Don’t always take the Doctors word until you do some research. Thank you for listening.
