Post-Surgery Update

So much has happened since my last update. I celebrated my 30th birthday on June 19th. I celebrated with a dinner party on Friday June 17th since the 19th was too close to my surgery date on the 20th.

The surgery went very well and I am now recovering at home. There have been some bumps in the road over the last 7 days, but I’m finally feeling better. I have several doctors’ appointments this week. Hopefully, I’ll be having my drains removed Wednesday (I’ve been told that having the drains removed will ease some of the soreness and pressure that I am feeling in my chest) and then I’ll go and hear my pathology report on Thursday. It is my hope that the pathology report comes back very positive and reveals that I will not have to receive any additional chemotherapy treatments.

Race for the Cure

I enjoyed walking with everyone in the Susan G. Komen St. Louis Race for the Cure on June 11, 2011. We had 26 people on our team and the weather for the most part was beautiful (except for the few minutes where it rained). Pictures will be posted soon. Thanks again to all of you who participated by walking and donating!
