The Whirl Wind Week

Went to Dr. Tittensor's office for consultation on when to take off my breasts. Whoa Hoo! She talked with Terry and I about the options we needed to take. She said she wanted another core biopsy from my right breast to make sure the chemo had done it's job and killed the cancer throughout my breast. We agreed on surgery to be scheduled for Friday. We told the Dr. that I had a MRI the next day as well as another appointment with my mom's cancer Dr. in Ogden. She was completely supportive about getting another opinion and told us that she would contact us Wednesday afternoon to give us the results on both the MRI and the core biopsy. The Dr. also got us an appointment with a plastic surgeon to put on some new breasts during the surgery on Friday.

We left Dr. Tittensor's office and headed to Dr. Bishops and found out what was to be expected with the reconstruction. Can I just tell you --Poor Terry!! He got his education on breast reconstruction on this day. They showed us a book in detail of the process that we would be going through. From the surgery to the new breasts. Can I just tell you that Terry had an "ahh haa" moment. It was funny!
