63. I know you are both happy that the surgery is behind you.

It is indeed good news that it was small and clean and as said earlier on this thread, she will breeze through the one week of radiation.

I lost a parent to cancer at a very early age, so I was schooled young about the impact. I have been quite happy and very grateful over the years to see advances in treatment and survival rates. It is indeed so important to catch it as early as possible.

My wish for the two of you is that you can take the next couple of weeks before the radiation and concentrate on yourselves and what makes you happy. Take some time and relish the fact that this is fixable, and remember that life is to be enjoyed!

All the very best.
