The Results

On that following Tuesday after the surgery we recieved the results for the lymph nodes and well, although the doctor didn't see anything that alarmed him the results came out that out of the 23 that were taken out 8 were infected. Another slap in the face. So now was the time to start getting ready for the chemo-therapy. The doctor also mentioned that since the lymph nodes were infected on top of the chemo they would deffinitly do radiation to make sure they could kill whatever they could and hopefully stop the spreading. The positive was that they did find it quickly enough to do a lot and take control of it. for a future reference for anyone going through this or who might go through it you always have to remember to take one day at a time and concentrate on the positives and not so much the negatives. It's very hard but after a few weeks of letting everything sink in you get used to the idea of whats happening but I always keep in my mind now especially, with the chemo treatment comming it will seem to get worse before it gets better but I have to remember it is going to help her along with the process.
