Just a quick note to let you know about the post-op appointments with my surgeon and oncologist on Monday.
The upshot is that I don't need a second round of chemo. The pathology report on the tissue taken during surgery showed the treatments were very effective in reducing the tumors and affected lymph nodes. This was great news as I had resigned myself to more chemo.
I will continue with Herceptin treatments for six more months (as I knew from the beginning) and will begin radiation treatments. It's back to Seattle on Friday for the radiation consult.
I will post more about the Monday's appointments later this week. Even some pictures!

So, for those of us who aren't knowledgeable about cancer treatment, this is a good news thing, right? So glad you're going to Seattle where the cancer care is excellent. We're continuing to pray for you, Rosa!
Hi Rosa,
What great news about no more chemo! Glad to hear the good report!
You're still in our thoughts and prayers...
Linda
