Ok, I will try to quit hogging all your posts! : )<BR/><BR/>MollyMolly Brawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00115154349404776433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4943006232049256938.post-64075920188029602442008-12-30T12:27:00.000-05:002008-12-30T12:27:00.000-05:00Ok, it's me again.

But there was still some in there so do not totally trust that MRI. My tumor ended up being 6.1 cm and NEVER showed on any imaging even after we all felt it. I do not tell you that to scare you, but I would definitely make sure you get clean margins with a lumpectomy, and then discuss radiation. (that was my original plan until we learned the tumor was stupid BIG!. Then I had the mastectomy)<BR/><BR/>MollyMolly Brawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00115154349404776433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4943006232049256938.post-40141513382455848382008-12-30T12:22:00.000-05:002008-12-30T12:22:00.000-05:00Oh my gosh Cyndi! I just found you after you post...Oh my gosh Cyndi! I just found you after you posted on my blog. WOW. I am soooo sorry to hear you have to go through this crap too but am here to tell you that I am here for you and will answer any questions you want. I wish could tell you that this is an easy journey--physically, it isn't bad at all, but that ever constant fear is what I still struggle with. But, then I have really sound moments of clarity and peace. And to think you have already overcome brain cancer! WOW--talk about an inspiration. I think with your brain cancer and my body's weird ability to make tumors we are the unlucky ones in the gene department!<BR/><BR/>I have not read your entire post yet, nor perused your profile, but just wanted to touch base. I started my blog to help ME, (as a former English teacher, I love to write) and to help anyone else who gets their rare diagnosis. <BR/><BR/>Please keep posting! I will read faithfully and feel free to contact me anytime.<BR/><BR/>MollyMolly Brawleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00115154349404776433noreply@blogger.com
