Hello everyone, hope you are all doing well.
I wanted to put up a quick post to let everyone know the latest news. I spoke with a nurse today regarding my pathology report. We'll meet with Dr. Walker on Monday, but she provided me some information.
The short story is the lymph nodes are negative and the tumor is HER2/neu negative as well. Both of these things mean less treatment and are the news that we were hoping for. I know we had mentioned some individual tumor cells in one of the Sentinel Nodes, but for some reason those don't count here - again more detail to follow. Overall, the results from the pathology make me Stage 1. There's not much more you can ask for.
After we meet with the doctor I'll provide more detail for those of you that have done too much reading - like I have.
As far as recovery from the surgery, each day is getting better. I had three of the four drains removed on Wednesday and hope to get the last one out tomorrow.
Sorry for the short post - I'll be back tomorrow.

I have been a breast cancer survivor since March 1, 2007. During my first year as a survivor this blog was used to keep friends and family informed of my thoughts and feelings during my treatment. Now it is a way for me to share all the great things that are my life.

Sandy's comment to me yesterday was the only news that could be better is if none of this cr.. had happened. True enough, but clearly some very good news.
Have a good time at play group this morning. I could see Olivia's smile through the phone when she told me Mom was going along to play group.
Love you, Dad
