Pre-op meeting

I have an appointment on Monday with Dr. Mehta to take care of all of my pre-op testing for my upcoming surgery. They will do blood work, an EKG and I think arrange for me to have a chest X-ray. I have an eye exam that morning too and a dental appointment on Wednesday. I'm trying to take care of everything possible before surgery. Sounds like fun. I am just beginning Spring break. 10 days off, what a great concept!

  5. I have been cancer free for SEVEN years. The first breast 10 years ago, then the second 3 years after the first. Probably could have caught the second sooner, but I did the whole ostrich thing. So I may understand your comment of where your head was in December. It is a wild ride for certain. However, you have a plan, GREAT SUPPORT and a hell of a strong will. These are tools of survivors :O)
