Day 9
Well its been a informational gathering kind of day. Lots of questions asked and answered and we found out that two lymph nodes look suspicious. We will find out more on that after the ultrasound on Tuesday. On a positive note we also found out that, thanks to former President Clinton, reconstruction of her breast is covered (not fully) and augmentation of her other breast to match is as well. It is not considered cosmetic so yay for boobies!
She is still unsure if she wants to go with tissue reconstruction or have an implant. I say tissue so that she can never be called fake lol. There is less maintenance involved in tissue as opposed to an implant. An implant has the possibility of failing and it is good for 12 years sometimes it'll last 5 other times in could last 20 where as tissue becomes part of you and it's from your own body so there is less likelihood of rejection or problems. Taking this tissue from her tummy will create a scar larger than she would like as well as she will have another location for pain and healing. This is, I think, the issue that she's most thinking about.
That's it for now more information to follow. I started re watching heroes on Netflix and there's one part at the end of one episode that spoke of change and I really liked it so I'm going to include it here:
In the beginning there was discovery. A confusion of elements. The fist snowfall of impossible change. Old lives undone, left behind. Strange faces made familiar. New nightmares to challenge sleep. New friends to feel safe with. Only then comes control. The need to impose order onto chaos. Through determination, through study and through struggle. All in defiance of a thundering truth. This is real and we are changed.
