I have breast cancer

Hi Melinda, and thank you. I am hoping we'll all be able to get together again soon. I know your surgery is coming up fast. Worry about me, and you won't have time to get nervous. I wish I could be there for you but I can't. Ask Toni to be your angel. She's right there, and she makes a great angel. I love you too, and really enjoyed meeting you. You are a sweet lady who deserves a new lease on life. May God be with you thru this next journey. With my love, kathy

Father I lift our precious sister Kathy to You and ask that You Gently Wrap her in Your Loving arms and hold her tenderly. Please grant to her the healing that You see best and let her never lose the touch of Your Hands. In the Name of Jesus AMEN

Amen, thank you Jane for your prayer. Love Kathy

Hi Maria, having leukemia was one thing, but now this on top of it all is ripping me apart inside. I won't know until the 20th if it has spread thru the lymph nodes, or is contained in just the nodes and breasts. If that is the case, then he will do a biopsy on both sides, if it has spread, then it's chemo. My medicare drug plan approved for me to have the new drug that just came out for my leukemia, but my Oncologist is hesitate to start me on it until I see the surgeon on the 20th, I see my oncologist on the 17th. Since I am now going to Costa Rica on Nov. 3-20, I would like to go ahead and get on the pill, at least I am getting some protection in my system. I have one month after I find out about the biopsies before I have to make a final decision. But I need to talk to John and he's getting ready to go thru the canal and back to Costa Rica. His oldest son is taking the sail boats thru the canal as John is too weak from a heart attack and a mild stroke. He was able to write me this morning. I love him so much, Maria, and I miss him like crazy. But before I decide on chemo or whatever, since I don't have a mass or tumor, I want to spend time with JOhn and look at all the pros and cons of my options. I know if I have to have a complete masectomy, I will have a plastic surgeon there to do reconstuction of my breasts at the same time. Must go see my lung Dr. now. Thank you and your family is in my prayers too. Love Kathy
