For enquiring minds...
I get to OHSU at 8,:00 a.m., get a wire stuck in my tumor, have a nuclear injection and THEN after all that fun I FINALLY get anesthesia and surgery: lumpectomy with sentinal node biopsy. Lymph node dissection (removal) if the bad stuff is in there.
I'll be home in the afternoon unless they find it in my lymph nodes. Then I have to stay overnight.
Mom is coming over to take care of me.
Watch this space for an update...
And thanks everyone for the comments and cards and flowers and lovely, lovely emails. It all helps.

I think perhaps yes.
On April 3, 2007, I heard the dreaded words "you have cancer."
Is this the definition of oval?
I think perhaps yes.
