Notes - Today is my JUDDD UD (Up Day). I didn't stick to a 500cal day yesterday. Had to make a recipe or lose produce. And the recipe was delicious but unfortunately, it pushed me over my DD limit. That's ok, I was still under 800 for the day which is greater than 50% caloric suppression.
Slept very soundly last night - only waking 1 time with pain. But this morning, woke with significant back lower back pain.
Good day so far! Great mood/attitude despite receiving sad news. I think the emotional storm of making a decision about the FOOBS is past for now. I talked to the PS - assistant yesterday and she was able to give me valuable feedback about the surgery and risks. I've decided to go ahead and live life for today and have the silicone gel implants placed. It's about the umpteenth gillion time I've made that decision. Today, I'm having the surgery.
Surgery did get postponed. The doc has an emergency procedure to do on my original surgery date for some poor lady with breast cancer. No problems. My new surgery date is now Sept. 25. Just one week after my 50th birthday. It's like I'm getting new Foobs for my birthday. "All I want for Christmas is my two front foobs, my two front foobs, my two front foobs..." And so on and so on. I might have foobs for Christmas, but I won't have nipples till Valentine's Day at the earliest! Ha! I don't think there's a song about that!?!
The odds aren't in my favor that I will be here 5 years from now. It's pretty ugly odds. With 12 of 34 nodes positive for cancer at surgery time and with 1 of the nodes showing that the cancer had protruded beyond the node and had escaped the node - the odds that my anti-hormone drug will continue to work and that all the cancer cells were killed is the equivalent of completing a hail mary pass from the 10 yard line down field from the opponents goal line. But, I just have to live each day as it comes and thank God for the blessings each day and the time He does give me. And I will deal with a recurrence if or when it happens.
A dear friend whom I met during chemo, called today. She's been fighting Stage IV disease for 13 years. She's been a true warrior. She's fought and beat it back each time. This time she told me it's in her liver, bones and lungs and she's not doing well. She's already had 3 full bouts of intense radiation this year and is now going through chemo again. I pray for her and ache at this news.
I hate this disease. I've already lost 2 friends this year to it. I have a port flush on Friday and she will be having chemo then, so I will go early and sit with her and visit or just hold her hand. Whatever she wants to do. I'm so sad about it all.
