Surgery date set

[abouttownmom]

So, I have March 17th set for my double mastectomy. I just realized that I had my hysterectomy on Sept. 17th. Maybe 17 should be my new lucky number! I'm a little apprehensive, but not wavering in my choice. In fact, I was talking to my sister the other day and she told me that if she and her hubby decide  they shouldn't have another kid (they have 3), that she is going to have the gene testing done and than will more than likely will do as I have decided to do.

The good news is our Aunt is still alive and kicking in 2010! On the other hand, maybe that is selfish to boast like that. She is tired of feeling sick all the time and she looks a shell of her former self. Cancer sucks and it has been a long haul watching it slowly steal her life away from her.

So, keep me in your thoughts on the 17th and drink one for me because the only thing I will be raising that day is probably an I.V. bag!

I'll be sending out all the good vibes I've got to you on that day!  Hey, your surgery is on St. Patty's Day--get shamrocks tattooed on your "chesticles"!

Best of luck sweetie!  *smooches*
