We just found out that my Aunt Susan (my Mom's younger sister) has cancer. She was officially diagnosed with breast cancer on Wednesday and yesterday the dr. told her she thinks it originated somewhere else, so we are in for a long rough road until we find out the origins and how far it has progressed. She has to go to an Oncologist the 21st and will get a portal put in on the 23rd to start the Chemo before they will do surgery.

Please keep my family in your prayers/thoughts while go through this rough time.

Thank you all!

Thank so much. Not our first battle with cancer, lost my Dad in 2001 to brain cancer, just this one came out of left field...we had no idea there was anything wrong with her until she told us...still in shock.

Minor update...seems my darling mother was confused. Aunt Susan goes to the Oncologist on the 21st (no change there) they will place a chip of sorts to mark the tumor when she is there, then on the 23rd she will be having a full body scan...So heres hoping we get good results from that...

Just talked to my Aunt Susan...her tumor is much smaller than originally thought!!! They thought it was about the size of a grape, but according to the scan they did Friday, it is 1.2 cm and is a stage 1!!! Woo Hoo!!! She goes to talk to the Oncologist tomorrow and they will set it up for her to start Chemo, they want to shrink it before they do anything else. She will have 4 treatments about 3 weeks apart...that is what Dr. Mellilo said, of course it is still subject to change depending on what the Oncologist says tomorrow. But things are looking much better than they were. Thank you all again for your thoughts and prayers! *hugs*

Have another update.

Yesterday was the Oncologist visit. She will have 6 rounds of Chemo 3-4 weeks apart. Once the Chemo is over they will do the lumpectomy (sp?) then she will have Radiation treatments. We are not sure yet when they will start the Chemo though, she has to set up an appointment with the Dr. that will be doing the treatments to get the port put in first, but she should be getting that appointment set in the next few days...will let you all know more when I hear.

Oh, can ya'll possibly add a little extra to your prayer that the hair loss is not so traumatic for her? She is REALLY having a hard time with the thought of her hair falling out (not that I blame her...I would too)
