Yesterday was completely mad. There was so much information, I am so glad my sister in law Wendie was with me. I dont think I would have made it through it all. Right now Im waiting on authorizations for everything. They wanted to put a plug in me for the chemo I said no. I opted for just the medication. I have to go through 5.5 weeks of chemo and radiation to get the mass to come down. Then when they think if is down enough Ill have the operation. Right now they are looking at lymph nodes, etc. since I have a family history of cancer. They also want to test for Lynchs syndrome, which has something to do with hereditary cancers. They are also checking to make sure it hasnt gone into my vagina also, and with the exam yesterday he said that it doesnt look like it has. I have a Clinical Stage III B (T3 ni mo) (has something to do with the tissue in the area) and i cant remember the rest without looking at the paperwork. They said three is about a 45- 47 % percent chance of getting rid of it, which may not look good, but I plan on making those percentages higher and beating this. Im having a real hard time with all of this. I cried and still cry a lot because its just so overwhelming. I will hopefully hear from them this week and be able to start everything in the next two weeks. I wont be here for those weeks. Im hoping i can get a computer to use or mine fixed by then because they do have wi-fi and I can still do things while going through this. Hopefully . My husband isnt taking this well at all. But I need him to be strong, and help support me emotionally. The true fight begins when all this other stuff starts. Right now, all I can do is cry and wish it gone.
