Her name is Debbie and she met with the surgeon the next day. He told her that she has Grade 3, stage 2 cancer and that they could not do surgery until she had very aggressive Chemo.
They did a body PET SCAN on December 23rd. It appears that the cancer has not spread....but given the type of cancer, they can not take chances. She will have six treatments of aggressive Chemo (over an 18 week span); then a double mastectomy; then probably radiation and more than likely a complete hysterectomy.
A week ago, they did surgery and put her Chemo port in. This past Thursday, January 22nd, she had her first aggressive treatment.
PLEASE keep her in your prayers. Although the road is not impossible, she does have a very bumpy, long hard road ahead of her.
Pray that the Chemo works. Pray it does not spread. Pray she is not too sick. Pray that she will still be able to work....to keep her insurance and income. (Praise the Lord....she works from home as a medical transcriber.)
Also....pray for her family: our daughter-in-law and son; her other two daughters and a son-in-law; her granddaughter; her mom and dad.
PRAYER CHANGES THINGS...............and like Tonya said, THERE IS POWER IN PRAYER.
Here is a picture of sweet Debbie when her granddaughter was first born....so that you can put a face with your prayers. Thank you in advance for the prayers.
