Since she was stage 1A, she doesn't need chemo or radiation. And so far she's had no real syptoms from her instant menopause. Amazing.
This is terrific. And Dana Farber is, too. I think I'd been imagining she had breast cancer, so I didn't realize the surgery was a hysterectomy. That's a great recovery.
The doctors were actually very optimistic the whole time, so it shouldn't be too surprising, but the initial diagnosis just took us to a really scary "OMG our mother died of this" place for a while.
It's a horrible place to go, but how could you not, if you lost your mom to the same thing. The word is scary enough, although it is freaking amazing that just in our life time, hearing "cancer" doesn't have to mean what it once did. I'm so glad her prognosis is so great.

Plus, my mom lived just six months after her diagnosis, so that added to the "gloom and doom" atmosphere of it all.
ETA: I was interrupted by a call from my sister. She's just ridiculously chipper.
Hey, tonight's Dead Like Me on SciFi has both what's his name from Oz and Lost (not Adebisi, the other one), AND Kaylee. Edit: Harold Perrineau.
One of the NYC associates just emailed asking for examples of 20-Fs (reports filed with the SEC by foreign companies who do business here) filed by Puerto Rican companies.
BB: So, Julie Chen just said,
".... or could the women have another plan in mind??"
I WISH. But I'm guessing no.
Lee, that's right up there with the Director at my first job throwing everything foreign & not in English out, including the Puerto Rico statutes.
I think yours beats this one, Sparky.
Yay?
BB
