So Carrie & I went to Omaha to see Dr. B today (thanks for taking me Carrie!). Anyway, we weren't quite sure what was going to happen at this appt - we thought probably the date for the surgery would be set up. Dr. B also wanted to check out the size of the tumor . . . and what she found was that it had gone from the size of a ping pong ball to the size of a dime (and flat) - GREAT NEWS! And the radiation & chemo will continue working, so it may shrink even smaller. So the surgery date is set - it will happen in Omaha - the pre-op date is set and the follow up date is set!
We found out that Dr. B's staff is just as caring and genuine as she is - and I got to meet her medical assistant Nickole face to face - which was nice because I had only talked to her on the phone.
I am feeling really good this week - and I believe that the energy level is coming back - I'll see if I can get some work done outside this week - I have some rose bushes to work on and some new plants to get in the soil.
Anyway, I am feeling glad that things are all set up and I can now kind of plan where we go from here . . . and at the same time am a little anxious about the surgery. One step at a time!
