Hi to all!!
Leave it to me to bring more excitement to the table:)
Up until 3:30 this afternoon, we were all ready for surgery tomorrow. After talking with my surgeon things have changed. My surgery is now postponed. The issue of the blood clot in my arm has him not wanting to have it with the fear of things going into my lungs or heart. (Thankfully I have a wise Doc.) He wants the clot gone before he will perform the surgery. Therefore, tomorrow will probably be a day of ultrasounds and deciding if the port needs to come out. I am kinda up in the air as to what comes next. I will keep you all informed as it comes.
Please keep on praying for my health. I'm off my bone medicine (because of the surgery) so I have some pain now. My joints are aching and I have pain in my back that's here to stay. My doctor said that since the cancer was in other places...even though the cancer's gone, the damage has been done. So the pain in my back is mostly from the damage to my spine. We are trying different drugs to see what will work, and yet, still enable me to function on a daily basis. The pain is pretty intense at times, but I do want to be able to live my life as normal as possible for my kids sake.
Thank you to all of you. I appreciate the calls, cards & emails so much. There are some 'yuck' days. And they really do uplift me as well as remind me how blessed I am to have so many on my side.
Love to you all
Shannon
