MIL got good news about her tx. turns out her tumor was biological not hormonal. that means she may not have to take traditional chemo treatment. the cancer didn't spread to her lymph nodes. she'll have another procedure where the doc will shave some more tissue around the site. the doc could leave the site alone, as would many doctors, but he's picky and wanted to take some more out as insurance. thank goodness for picky docs! she'll have the procedure in a few weeks. i can't remember offhand if she'll need radiation, it seems to me she will.
i'm so happy for this news. hopefully it means the medicine she'll take won't make her as sick as chemo, and she can keep her hair. hopefully it will mean that she will be able to be with us when the babies are born next month. hopefully it means that she can go camping without being held in exile in the camper.
this is good.
