Yet another plan

In a nut shell....

Biopsy came back positive for tumor but it was not a lymph node (YAY!). As a result I am having minor surgery on Thursday to have a sentinel lymph node (the one the cells from the tumors are draining into) removed. It will be tested and will tell the surgeon what the end surgery should be. My chemo has been postponed until Friday (oh what a wonderful week I am having ;)). Actually I am doing surprisingly well. All of the docs I saw today were looking at me strangely and I finally found out why. They are not used to having someone in their office with such a peppy attitude. They told me they couldn't believe how calm I have been through this whole thing (is that a good thing?). Anyway, I am walking it with a good attitude in hopes of sailing through and coming out the other side completely cured.

BTW anyone know of a modeling agency that needs bald models? Or perhaps I could model for the mannequin companies. One on my chemo drugs is $2500 a pop. Lemonade stand anyone?

Oh, my dear friend. If anybody I know could be a bald model, it would be you. I think you are still going to be stunning even without hair. If you think about it, even when mannequins don't have hair, they still look good and I think it's going to be the same way with you. But, I will bake cookies or cakes or whatever is needed, to sell at the lemonade stand. And, I'm offering my children to work the stand and garner support .
