~~~Something To Share~~~ As many of you are aware, I have been dealing with a breast issue problem for a while & a recent biopsy revealed that I have Lobular Carcinoma (Cancer) In Situ, for the 2nd time since 2005, which is the best kind of breast cancer you can have. My doctor strongly recommended a double mastectomy. After getting this news, just The word Mastectomy was giving me a very hard time mentally. I have had a consultation with my breast doctor & she has given me all the pros & cons of having a double mastectomy as well as the pros & cons of not having the double mastectomy & the decision is ultimately mine & a decision that I must be comfortable with. Dr. Dial eased a lot of my fears & concerns last week & I have prayed, prayed & prayed some more & ask the Lord to give me guidance & a peace about what I should do. I knew in my heart & in my head what I should do, however; I was still very undecided. ~~~Now This is the good part of this situation that I have been put in~~~ Last Thursday, a week ago today, sitting at my desk just thinking about everything & talking to God, I just felt this peace come over me about the word Mastectomy & all of my fears & concerns about having a Double Mastectomy were totally gone. Thank you Jesus for answering prayers. God is so good. Prayer is an awesome & mighty powerful thing. I know at that very moment when I felt that peace come over me that God answered my prayers & the prayers that had been lifted on my behalf by many many many people as to what to do. I will be having a Double Mastectomy & even tho I know I have a tuff journey ahead, I am at peace about it. Being a diabetic will make my journey even harder & I pray for good control of my diabetes for an easier procedure & recovery. I have a consultation with the plastic surgeon tomorrow who will explain just exactly what will take place & what I can expect afterwards. No, I am defiantly not looking forward to my journey, but I know that my awesome God will be right there beside me & my family each step of the way & with him I can do all things. Thank you all so so so much for lifting me in prayer. I ask that you continue to remember me & my family as we travel a journey that no one ever wants to go on but one that we dont get to choose to go along for the ride or not. I know that for some reason, this is just Gods plan for me & I have complete trust & faith in him. I know that everything is gonna be OKIE DOKIE. I am looking at probably September 2nd or September 9th for my surgery. I should know more defiantly about the date tomorrow after my consultation with the plastic surgeon, Dr. Scott Runnels. He comes highly recommended & I believe when this is all said & done Im gonna look like a 25 year old beautiful model! Is that a positive attitude or what! I feel so blessed to have found this problem AGAIN before the cancer was invasive. That in itself is something else that I am very very thankful for. Like Dr. Dial told me, Invasive Breast Cancer is a whole different ball game & not a ball game that you want to play in. Something good always comes out of something bad. Lots of love to all of you.
