    That could be my fate as well, so I'm hoping they got it all. My cancer was stage 0, grade 2, and there's nothing else viewable on either MRI or mammo, so my fingers are crossed that microscopically, everything is out!

    30 rads coming to me! That could be part of that song. Happy Christmas!

    Yay, Red! I hope radiation goes smoothly. Here's hoping for a very bright and cancer-free future!

    I cannot believe I have missed this thread for so long!!! Wow you have been through so much (I just read through all 12 pages) and your attitude has been amazing. I am so glad things have taken a more positive turn. I will be reading this thread more regularly now. Good luck with the radiation - huge hug to you!!

    Oh I'm planning to! I'm probably even going to ride to my rads. 10 easy miles from the park and ride, on days I don't work.

    I'm going to need new bras. I love my Ibex ones, but I'm probably going to be too sensitive for wool. The best thing after the surgery was cotton camis with a shelf bra, so I may just get more of those. It's funny, I never thought I'd be able to wear just a cami out, since I've always been too modest, but this has changed that.
