the notgood news -- november 08

appointment with dr. chan on 7 november

the biopsy results indicate "serous carcinoma", apparently a type that usually originates in the ovary, so that means maybe cancer in ovary, fallopian tube, AND uterus. nastier & nastier. dr.chan said he usually prescribes post-surgery chemotherapy for this type of cancer, no matter how much they take out.

at every step so far, when new information arrives, it's always been the kind i DIDN'T want to hear. so of course at this point, i'm praying THAT pattern has run its course, & after surgery i'll be getting some of the good kind. still no date for surgery, am waiting for a call from his scheduler.

had a wonderful long weekend in sausalito/sanfrancisco, tho!
