"How are you doing today?" Seriously??? friggin' awesome...its 98 degrees, I got 5 kids here, tomorrow is the last day of school and I got STUPID DUMB BREAST CANCER, I am doing great! Well, when you ask a stupid question I will give you a sarcastic answer.
Meeting with Doc #1 went just perfect until she used the "c" word and we were shocked. I mean how dare her use that language around my delicate ears. When she said chemo I almost walked out!!! There is a chance I may need it, that pisses me right off. I mean I have good hair. Now that will only happen in 3 different scenarios. I will not bore you with those and to be honest the only one who really understands is the doc, MC and google. If I have chemo be ready to see all my girls with shaved heads, RIGHT!!!!!!!! Notice that is not a question. I have decided that I need to be looking at the worse case here. I was going along thinking ...oh it is just clogged ducted, oh they will remove it and that will be it, oh I won't need a mastectomy....then we get hit with a rock. Granted stupid dumb breast cancer hit me like a little bitch but still hit me! So we are preparing for the worse now.The docs will set up the surgery date and it will be full steam ahead.We see Doc #2 on Friday just a second opinion and because I have not been felt up yet by all the doctors in CNY. I am getting set up with an oncologist as well. Of course, I have a connection there too thanks big brother:). It really does help to have all these doctors put a face to your file. So now I have a radiologist, breast care doctor, a plastic surgeon and a oncologist. If only it was a maid, a chauffeur, personal assistant and a personal trainer I would be thrilled. Notice I did not say cook cause let's face it, I am way to controlling in the kitchen.
This "lump" in the road will make for a long trip but we (Tom, the boys, my family, my bitches) got this covered. In the end I will be more active in CNY Komen and breast health and early detection, that is really what you all are excited for! Thanks for being here for my struggle, just make sure you are here for my celebration. May 18th NYS Fair for Race for the Cure with team "Cure or Bust", as this leader comes across as a SURVIVOR!!!!
Am - I can't imagine what you are going through, Please know that I WILL BE THERE FOR YOU AND THE BOYS(TOM INCLUDED) You are a fighter and WE will ALL be there FIGHTING with you - You ARE NOT Alone - We will ALL make it through this TOGETHER.
ReplyDeleteLove you, G-Deb/Pa
OH G-Deb are here and I love it!
DeleteListen, I KNOW, I know you have great hair, but it will grow back, that is the least of your worries. Been there, done that, really,be pissed, but do what they tell you to do!
ReplyDeleteHMMMMM listening to others?! what is that???
DeleteOh yea...I forgot about the countless emails about the race, (almost harrassing at times ;0) LOL) YOU are used to telling people to listen to YOU! Well, time to take a temporary leave my friend and take care of you!
DeleteYuck--hate that C word too. Keeping my fingers crossed that you won't need it. Send the boys to Brookside whenever you need them out of the house--you have enough folks over here to keep them busy.
ReplyDeleteYou just don't like that word cause it means you will be bald too!!!
DeleteI love you! If you would like to set up a weekly play date now for the boys to come over before thngs get hectic for you email me so we can set the schedule up. I promise camp Pilewski will have all of the swimming, creek exploring and COOKIES any kid to ask for.
ReplyDeleteMy sister you will be doing the hard work, but I am in it with you as long as you need me.

DUH!!?? WTF you think you can look better than me? ANd Brittney will seem like Minnie Mouse:)
Deleteyou are the best stink wrinkle
No....not the stupid dumb "c" word. Well, praying that it is not one of those 3 scenarios. As far as being controlling in the kitchen.....you are gonna have to loosen the reigns a little there and suffer through with stuff we are gonna be serving up to you. Once you have your surgery dates I want to set you up on the website www.mealbaby.com. It's a great site and we can all sign up to for different days to bring food. For now it's time to open up that can of whoop ass. Love ya! xoxo

DeleteYay...I finally figured out how to post and now I even have a J-O-B! Just give me a list of your favorite foods and fab take out joints and leave the rest up to me!
DeleteI am not familiar with that web site but I know mealtrain lets you put that info in....we will talk:) thanks cuz..<3
