Easter Heart - Renewed Life - Joy

 My Dear and Wonderful Friends and Fellows on the Path of Light,

I had my surgery this morning. I am home. Everything went just great. My relief is immeasurable.

The lump was removed and they went back again for an edge of an area that had not quite enough of a clear margin and got it.

Isn't it so cool that they can tell right then and there how to get the cancer and the clear margin.

The nuclear medicine and photos showed very clearly where my closest nodes were and in the right place. They only took 2 lymph nodes. We still have to wait five days for pathology on those, but my hero doctor told my husband that they look normal and very good.

My pre-surgery panic, anxiety, depression, and fear is all but completely gone as I feel such relief.

I am so grateful that I have the University of Michigan Cancer Center around and supporting me.

If all I have to do is radiation therapy and drug therapy, I can handle that. Maybe even with joy. The joy of my life!

I feel my life unfolding before me like a new road, a healthy, loving, good, and long one.

Your connections to me and mine to you are extraordinary and beautiful and filled with light and profound gratitude. 

I love and appreciate you all.

With love and health,

Bobbi

*Update: The pathology report came in yesterday afternoon. My nodes are clean. I am cancer free! Yeah! Yeah! Like I said, I will be the best radiation patient they ever had.
