After Surgery

Hey everyone, I had surgery yesterday around 10am, it was quite an experience. And can I just tell you that Versed is the weirdest stuff! I learned about it in nursing school but its totally different when when you actually have it. They gave me it because they had to inject an isotope into my breast before surgery so it could circulate and they could find the sentinel node(the lymph node that drains the tumor). Dr. Stults couldn't use a local so they had to dope me up with the versed. I felt all three pokes but for some reason I didn't care! Then they let everyone back in my room and I was laughing and crying at the same time and doing my beauty queen wave as they wheeled me back to surgery. Then I saw Peggy Stults who was with me the whole time(what a sweetheart, she said she couldn't leave me), and then lights out and I woke up in recovery. I never had any pain except this morning I'm a little sore. I was sent home with a JP drain that I get out on Monday. So anyway what I know from the surgery is that there was no cancer in the sentinel node or the marginal tissue around the tumor. Yea! I do kinda remember him saying something about cancer in the ducts but I'm not sure what that means. I will find out more on Monday and keep you all posted. Thanks for all the prayers, I know you all pulled me through! Love you all so much!
