Sorry to hear the crap hand y'all have been dealt. The one thing I've learned and truly believe is that attitude is as important as the medicine. Prayers of quick healing sent her way!

Like he said, I will keep it short. I'm a kidney cancer survivor (06) and my wife had a lumpectomy and they got it all. Medical science is doing well for the most part.

Hang in there brother my best for the both of you!

"I’m not convincing myself to remain confident, I honestly believe we WILL prevail here."

Damn right. We all look forward to hearing that the doctors are confident they got it all.

A good attitude and strong disposition will go a long way in treatment. Sounds like both of you are equipped to handle this.

Update on the Mrs. Things 'Went very well' according to the 12 year old surgeon. They also removed one lymph node from under her arm. (Common practice we're told) We'll know in about three working days whether she'll need Chemo or not. I asked again what his thoughts were on the matter and he said the same thing he did a month ago; I can't say no but I really doubt it.

She came home yesterday as this was day surgery and has been sleeping since.

Doctors used to be these fatherly type figures. Our guy had three tattoos and hipster glasses.

Thanks again you magnificent bastards.

With all the laparoscopic surgeries they are really good since they grew up with video games. We have a full on surgery simulation center and there is a laparoscopic trainer that they not only get tested in but they compete with each other on, is like the modern day version of the game operation

Doogie Howser? Holy shit, you placed your wife's life in the hands of a 12 year old?

Seriously, extremely thrilled that it seems like she will come through this like a trooper.
