Surgeon Visit

I saw my surgeon, Dr. Roxanne Davenport today. We concluded that a lumpectomy and radiation is the treatment of choice. I will have the lumpectomy on Feb. 10. The radiation treatment I have chosen to do, if all borders come back clean from the lumpectomy, is mammosite radiation.

As you will read this treatment takes 5 days with dosages 2 times a day. I chose this over the 30+ treatments over 6 weeks period. Because I am stage 0 and the cancer is confined to the milk duct and not spread this direct radiation will be very effective.

GOD IS GOOD ALL THE TIME!!!

Continue to pray that all borders will be clean and that we can work this plan!
