Dear Lee Ann,
It is not fun to deal with things like this, but being a cancer survivor myself, I can tell you mind over matter is just as important as the removal of cancer. You need to focus on the positive and not buy into the negative. I was told I would probably only live six months and that was over 5 years ago. I never believed what I was told and never put it into my mind. You WILL beat this thing and it will feel very small to you in coming years, just as it was for me.
They caught it early and you will get through it and move on. We are your family here and our thoughts and prayers are covering you.
Don't focus on bad, just move forward and look up. You will feel better, when this ordeal is past you!
Hugs,
Itsme Wayne
