That’s great news. I’m glad to hear that you have such supportive people available. It’s also comforting to hear that Ottawa seems like a good place to get sick, as weird as that sounds. My hometown (Minden) is NOT a good place to go through any kind of serious illness. The health care system is terrible there, and you’re pretty much on your own.

Thanks everyone! I feel so relieved that the doctor doesn’t think it’s in my bones. I feel like I’ve dodged a bullet. Still, I never would have imagined a few months ago that I’d be celebrating the news that “it’s only breast cancer.”

Things can change so quickly – for the better or the worse.

I like good news and a bit of optimism for the spirit is a good thing too! Graham is coming here tonight, likely Ottawa tomorrow. When are you coming out – what’s your schedule look like the next day or so. I think he’s leaving tomorrow or Saturday.

Cheers, hugz, love ya!

Good news! 9mm is nice and small – mine was 15mm and that was small. I also think the surgeon is right about the bone thing. The only thing they found in my bone scan was arthritis in my left shoulder, which explained the pain I had been having there for some years. I went to Merivale Imaging (near Baseline) for those tests. They are efficient and nice there too.
