Just a quick surgery update!

Well the next step for mom is already here…This morning at 6:30 she went in to begin her procedures before her lumpectomy this afternoon. She had to have long metal pins inserted through her breast tissue to mark the tissue that is to be removed. She stated that “it wasn’t extremely pleasant, but its over” (not to mention that it took three times until it was in the right place). Now she is waiting for the anesthesiologist to come in so that they can begin surgery.

It's DONE!

Courage does not always roar. Sometimes it is a quiet voice at the end of the day, saying... "I will try again tomorrow."
--Mary Anne Radmacher

Mom has completed weeks and weeks of daily radiation and is regaining her strength slowly but surely from 9 grueling months of battling (and beating!) cancer. So remember, as Helen Keller said, "Keep your face to the sunshine and you will not see the shadows."

Thank you, again, dear family and friends, for all your love and support throughout 2008.
