My mom had surgery. It was SUCCESSFUL! The tumor is out. Her lymph nodes were clean. If you don't know what a "lymph node" is let me put it this way, if there is cancer in the lymph node it is BAD. She'll have radiation. It'll be November 2008 before everything is over. It'll take anywhere from 6 to 12 months for her body to recover and her hair to grow back. I'm just glad it's out of her. Now I have to decide whether I should get tested for the cancer gene. Apparently breast cancer runs in my family.
