Ellie,

I am still quite steamed at your onc, but having said that I am also relieved to hear you are able to seek another opinion at Marsden (whatever that is). I hope London isn't too great a journey for you. Best wishes and prayers. Please let us know what transpires with your surgeon regarding the unaffected breast. I did think it odd to read that it was your opposite axilla. I thought perhaps you had mis-typed. Let's hope your other breast is not diseased. Never a dull moment with B.C., huh? Sending prayers across the seas.
