Cancer Sucks
I've had two surgeries. One consisted of a lumpectomy that found micro invasive cells and dirty margins which led to another to get clean margins and do a sentinel node biopsy. They took 8 lymphnodes and the pathology report says that two of those lymphnodes had micro matastisis. That's the facts as I know them, now. What does this mean exactly? Well, it's unclear except that my little ole' stage O breast cancer is now at least a stage II and I'll have chemo and radiation. My case is being presented at the Johns Hopkins tumor board next week because there are some peculiarities and they just don't have a handle on my cancer yet.
