The Next Step!!!

So I am ready for the next step, which is surgery.....um ok that's kinda scary! I have only been in the hospital once for dehydration when I was in college. Otherwise no other illness to speak of before this...well not really. I am not really nervous now even though it's exactly 2 weeks from today probably because I am sooo tired. I went back to work and working as hard as I can before I won't be able to work. However, I did get some good news that I won't be out as long as I was initially told, 2 weeks, that's great!!!!



Anywho........Mom will be in Tuesday so the countdown begins. I have been sooo busy I haven't had time to think about any of this which is pretty good since I may freak out if all I had to do was sit and worry. But since I don't.....I won't!



Again Surgery is on the 17th, I have a Pre-Op appt. tomorrow. This will be blood work, EKG, and a bunch of other test to make sure my heart and other organs are okay and it's cool to do surgery. I guess I should be charging my iPod so I will have something to do during all this. I got a good book so I should be fine.



So some may be asking what's after surgery..........well me too! No really it's Radiation therapy . I will have about 4 weeks off after surgery and then 6 weeks of radiation. I will receive radiation everyday (5 days a week, no radiation on the weekends!) for 6weeks. This will be a treat, driving from Chino to Duarte EVERYDAY!!!! It's not that's it's that far away, just that the traffic to get there will be brutal!!!! Well, I'm trying to watch the game so I guess I will go watch the game and get ready for my week.



I'm working a lot but I will try to get on here again sometime this week.

Thanks to all for your thoughts and prayers!

Luv Ya'll



Smooches!
