Thank you all for your kind words [View all]

You can't know how much your support means to me. I'm sort of a loner, so I don't have many people other than my husband to vent to, and I really hate burdening him with what is essentially the same old shit day after day--to wit: Why can't we get moving on this? I'm going crazy waiting for things to happen!

I saw the plastic surgeon again today, and I made him promise not to make me look like a teenager. I go for my final pre-surgery visit with the surgeon on Wednesday and then to the hospital for pre-admission stuff on Thursday. Surgery is scheduled for the 23rd.

It can't come soon enough. This tumor is growing, it really is. My left breast, which was smaller than my right one, no longer hangs as low. And it sort of burns. I want this thing out of me.
