So sorry to hear about her small mass and the accident. This must have you both pretty rattled.

A truly bad day for you two.

Group hug for wifey

I know you both must be very rattled.

Tell your wife not to worry about her breast cancer. It was caught early and that’s very good. Odds are she will be fine. I’m a survivor of a stage 3.

The accident sounds pretty horrifying and not a good end to your day.

My mom had the same diagnosis and treatment and was never bothered with it again. She did, however, scar my husband for life by sending us a picture of her boob marked up with target lines by the radiologist.

My condolences for the poor gentleman and his family.

... his ashes are under our bed right where I sleep.

We've let the surgeon know Joy doesn't wear bikinis anymore, not to worry.

Your last line made me chuckle. My great-gran needed a double mastectomy in her 80s and the doctors were clearly apprehensive. Full of sharp wit, she responded “my husband is dead and I don’t wear bikinis! Take ‘em off!”

Not the best of days!

There are little rays of light, though... your wife's cancer is treatable, that's a good thing. True, that she has it at all sucks.

The accident where the victim passed in your driveway... at least you weren't standing or somehow in the path of the vehicle when out of control. Sucks that the event happened and for the deceased.

Not sure what you meant about the neighbor. But if she's okay, there's that.

Here's hoping everything goes better from here on out!

... have been her. She's deaf and can't hear the door bell or phone ring. These are hooked to a light that flashes when the phone or doorbell rings.

Glad it wasn't her.

Concern. What an awful day.

15 years bc free 🤗 lumpectomy, chemo, radiation (with follow up heart valve replacement 14 years later)

w/rads is getting off lightly, to say the the least!

Have no worries, this (for the big CA), is strictly routine now.

.... comforting thots to you and quick healing for your wife,
post her lumpectomy!

... if I had to have it, I wish it were now: they now use an aerosol to cure it.

I wish your wife the speediest of recoveries. All best wishes and good vibes are being sent her way. Please keep us posted on her progress.

Rolled up on an awful scene...
Take care.

For you and your wife too close to home..literally. Medical advances and science, will thankfully be the life saving treatment your wife needs to live a healthy life and that is the best news. Keep us posted on her progress as best wishes are coming her way and to you, her caregiver 🌺

Best of luck to you both with that. My thoughts are with you both (because it's very hard to be the one in the waiting room.)

I'm so sorry that horror happened at your home. That's very upsetting.

my wife having hone through the exact same thing — very early detection, small lumpectomy, and a relatively limited radiation regimen, I share you and your wife’s confidence. Virtually no side effects aside from red sunburnish reaction to the radiation by the end of it - short lived and relatively painless. It’s been a few a few years since she went thru her episode — and sll positive and cancer free since.

One note that seems worth sharing: my wife researched and found a female breast cancer surgeon who specialized in removing the lump with the least possible cosmetic impact. She did a remarkably good job — the surgery is pretty much unnoticeable except to the person knowing it was done.

Best to both of you and here’s hoping for a perfect outcome and nothing but good days ahead.

Sad about your neighbor.. what a day!

Sending healing vibes, and I will be thinking of you both. Sorry also about the driver that was killed.

Relieved for you both that it wasn't your neighbor. Hopefully today is going better for your wife and you.

and got excellent treatment in Austin. Sounds like she caught it early...that's good news. ☮

... and Urine Bladder surgery 2019 - removed my bladder and I was glad there was enough colon left to make new ureters which were removed with the bladder. The cherry of that experience is they take the Prostate with the ureters. In the necropsy that it was cncerous, also.

in 2022 I got Brucillosis that took months to diagnose because it's so rare and I had no obvious exposure to it.

And in the last two years I've been hospital 3 times a year for UTis. And once this year. But they are still on the case and I believe they'll lick this yet.

What a day filled with turmoil

I am so sorry, marble falls

Hugs to you and your lovely wife

(((((HUGS)))))

Best wishes for a good success.

that they have such good treatments now. I'm sorry she has this, but she should be fine. A close relative of mine beat more advanced breast cancer ten years ago, and the treatments have probably improved since then.

What a horrible, tragic accident in front of your house while you were away.

... we both have extremely good health care. EVERYONE in the country should get my coverage for the same price I pay for it - $0. The US one the of the largest providers of socialized medicine and I am a member of one of the largest units: VA. My wife doesn't have Cadillac insurance - she has Rolls Royce insurance, by dint of her 28 years with CIA through United Health Care. Her premiums are under $300/month.

We are doing fine. Now all I need is a solution for the UTIs (that have gone septic twice) I get about every three months. And they are working on it, I go into the clinic tomorrow and have another CAT scan on Friday.

best vibes and healing go to both of you. So sorry about the accident that claimed a life.
