Life After Diagnosis

Two Years (and counting) since My Breast Cancer Diagnosis. Get busy living, or get busy dying.

Weekly Update

Posted by sarahafterdiagnosis on October 5, 2005

Several new developments since last week!

    I have hair! To be more precise, I have peach fuzz on my head. I look like a baby chick. But I don’t mind; my hair is growing!

    I have a surgery date!
    I’ll have my final reconstructive surgery (as well as my port removed) on November 2.

    I’m a chemo graduate!
    Today was my last weekly appointment with the oncologist, who told me I have graduated. I still have monitoring to do (a CT/CAT scan and a bone scan in two weeks), but I won’t set foot in the oncologist’s office again until mid-November. Exciting!

    I’m flying solo! It’s just me and the boys again now. We are adjusting pretty well to no more Nancy or Rebecca (although Rebecca sat with them today while I was at the oncologist’s). We have an outing every day; today the boys went to the playground for the first time ever. Big excitement!

I think that’s it for this week’s update.
