We got the news yesterday that mama definitely has bi-lateral ductal breast cancer. The recommendation is to do a bi-lateral masectomy. But first she has to go to see her cardiac specialist, her pulmonist, a radiation doctor, an oncologist, and she has to have a PET/CT scan from her brain to her thighs to see if it's matestisezed outside of the breast in any other organs. Once all that is done than we go back in two weeks to see the surgeon again to set up the surgery. She is petrified and having major anxiety attacks at night. She hasn't been sleeping well at all. Last night she told me she doesn't think she is going to go through with the surgery. I asked her why but she doesn't really have a reason. I told her not to decide anything until we have the final session with the doctor. She may not even be a good candidate for surgery due to all of her other health issues. So if you think of it next week pray for us. She has doctors appointments scheduled Monday-Wed. so far next week. It's very hard for her to be moved around. And say a prayer for me for patience and understanding. That I would have the right words to say and the shoulder to lean on.
