Wellness Basket

Hi Girls,First, Merry Christmas! Second, thank you all SO much for the gift basket. It was so thoughtful and I really, really appreciate you thinking of me...and my love of food. I saw that pesto jar and was way too excited. I can't want to be able to dive in! I suppose I will share with Bill, he has been quite the attentive husband.
So, I am laying in bed wearing a body wrap and am thinking of what Bill will have to help me pack when he gets home from work. The initial pathology on my lymph nodes was negative so two of the three tests so far look promising. They just have to do an official pathology report so lets pray those come out negative as well. My surgeon had to move some tissue around in my breast so in essence I have had a boob job. She said there would be swelling and I asked her if she could make the other one bigger too. Luckily she laughed. :) Recovery was not so pretty. A million thanks to mrs. spaz for putting my hair in a sweet pony tail and lying to the valet about why we parked more than one car for free (apparently this is frowned upon). I have been eating toast in bed and Bill had to help me change b/c I was covered in crumbs. He used the rolly thing that gets off lint to clean me while I lay in bed. It is all very romantic. Shawna, Erin and Jen...you didn't tell me the first month of marriage would be so glamorous!
But I am feeling hopeful this morning and it isn't the pain killer talking. My Her2/neu test was negative which I don't completely understand b/c they just found out the other day and I didn't really get that explained to me. But I think its a good thing. I have an appointment with the oncologist on the 6th to go over treatment options and will have to meet with a fertility specialist in the meantime as well. It gets a little easier to think about when I know that I am OK inside. Again, one step at a time over here.
I hope you all enjoy your Christmas, please give my love to your families and eat/drink a ton! We are having a low key New Years in Newport and anyone is welcome to join. It could be a quiet night of board games or get kicked into high gear with flip cup. Even with one good boob I will still kick a little ass. :)
Love you girls, Erin
