Home after opp

Hey everyone, thanks for your support on my last post,I had my opp yesterday and all went really well, and I feel so relieved that they have got rid of the tumor, having a macetomy was definitely the right thing to do,as the tumor was 4.6 cm, luckily it hadn't spread to my lymph nodes, however my surgeon removed 2 as a precaution, I looked at my chest straight away, it's not something I had thought about but just went with how I was feeling at that time, I am so glad that I have, and I'm at ease with myself,I'm grateful to be alive and face the stage, in 10 I will have my next appointment to determine wether, it's radio therapy, tablets or chemo, just for now I'm trying not to think about this, I got to stay over night which I'm grateful for,I'm now at home with my children, my feelings, thoughts and emotions are of those I've never experienced before, and I have to say, I am a stronger woman than I gave myself credit for,I rarely praise myself, but as of yesterday I am so proud of myself, and so very proud of you all too,I'm humbled by all of your stories and thankful for this wonderful support on here, sending love from Lindsay xx

  • I stayed in hospital for 1 night, and wasn't given the option for reconstruction surgery,as my tumor was quite a big one 4.6 cm, and as radio therapy is probable, it's adviced to wait for reconstruction,I will be thinking of you and wait to hear good news, sending love and here if you want to reach out xx
