To save or not save the TATA
To save or not save the TATA.
Man, everybody. I mean everybody has got an opinion.
First thing out of my mouth to Dr. B was
get rid of it. I mean it is causing me problems. It is a bad TATA.
Dr. B said think about it. I will call u
on Monday and we can set an appoint as soon as you want. Well I want it this
week He said I can set something up for the following Thursday. You just need
to make a decision as to what you want.
Mind blowing Decisions.....
Well I started to read. Spoke to Ms.
Yvonne my nurse navigator and my Auntie who is a breast cancer survivor and just an amazing woman period.
Talked to my coworkers, friends, breast cancer survivors and T. T has only said do what you
want, but if you have a mastectomy consider reconstruction at the same
time. As you are vain and I think knowing you got a breast coming will help. Ok, ok,
whatever.
Well I am a girl who researches, takes the
facts, weighs the probabilities and makes a decision.
I decided to have the lumpectomy. Now you
got to understand something else. I have a great fear of surgeries. Great fear. If I can avoid
having them I will. But I am no fool. I know that this is the first step in
this process of saving my life and kicking cancers a#$! But I do not like it.
I am also a person who though may be a
drama queen, I do not often accept help very graciously. I am independent and
proud. I have a great support group of girlfriends and family. But I do not let
many people be close to me. Just how I am. Well I had to make a change....I had
to be gracious enough to accept help....Because frankly T and I needed it.
