HUZZAH!

Woke up from surgery today with the good news that there was no lymph node complication. (does little dance of joy...)

I still have my lymph nodes (minus 3 from the biopsy) and I feel great. Kids are sleeping over at Anne and Harvey's (thank you!), ate delicious veggie lasagna (thanks Deb and Mark) and am going to get a good night's sleep.
 So...no radiation (would have been daily for 6-8 weeks), reconstruction can happen with mastectomy if I want it,  and we can move forward. It's a good, good day.

YAY!

Now I am going to bed. Love to you all.

    Awesome, Fran!
    Today was the Komen walk in Roanoke. There was a "Celebrating Fran Loosen" flower in the Garden of Hope. Pics enroute.
    Love,
    Peter and Chris

    I've seen some really awesome tattoos on women who've had this done. Seriously...it's something to think about. And you can go topless on a beach.

    lol

    I hope you don't mind my strange way of dealing with this...
