I'm off to see the surgeon on Friday
Please include me in your prayers this week. My surgeon will determine if it is time for the mastectomy. The rash is under control and the breast appears normal like before. However, there is a little bit of redness showing up again in a small area. I hope it is just my eyes playing tricks on me. But, these recent events have me concerned and just makes me feel that I really need to have the surgery soon. I hope I do not have to wait too much longer.
Also, I really wanted to have skin graffed on the area above the breast where the rash extended up too. My surgeon is not thrilled with this idea. I am not thrilled with leaving skin that had cancer in it. So, I pray that somehow that will get all worked out.
Keeping all of you in my thoughts and prayers,
Tonya
