it's cancer.
stage 1.
i go into surgery this week again.
Sarah Fackrell@blogdiva Oh, no. I'm so sorry
@design_law thank you. am holding on to as many spoons as i can, but i feel people need to know that, if anything, am lucky they caught it so early.
mammos are so hard to come by for so many people even in areas like nyc. i need people to fight to get them.
but am telling you, my MDs are everything to me right now. they've been on this like butter on toast. they do not want to let a week or two go by. am so grateful for their aggressive focus.
Sensible Crone@blogdiva nice work catching it so early! Do all the stuff, even when you don't want to. xxoo
@susiemagoo thank you love!
@blogdiva mine was 2 headed for three when I found it. that was back in 2006. medicine is so much better all the time. Head down, and go through the stuff. It ends, and then recedes into history.
@susiemagoo this is what i needed to hear. thank you, love!
Bridge&Tunnel Jeff@blogdiva Best of luck to you.
Bill Hooker@blogdiva I'm sorry to hear this, and wish you a speedy recovery.
@sennoma thank you! am just happy it was caught so early. i trust my doctors because i understand the science and they're the best at what they do.
Jo - piรจce de rรฉsistance@blogdiva nooo. I was waiting to hear from you. .
Hugs.
i will be thinking of you and wishing you the very best. Ugh. so sorry. Fuck cancer

@JoBlakely thank you love. yes, #fuckCancer & hospital administrations in love with their bureaucratic bullshit. but in spite of that, it's the MDs and nurses that are important and am blessed with awesome teams that have wasted no time to get me to this point.
@blogdiva yes! so much. So glad you got this early. So glad you have good people around you.
Anna Kyle@sandsoftime5050 YASSS! i need uplifting memes more than ever. thanks!
tobie@blogdiva So sorry to hear this. I hope the surgery removes everything and that the treatment is relatively painless.
AnarchoNinaWrites@blogdiva I am sorry, that's horrible news. Pulling hard for you; been a factor in my own family recently and I understand the importance of staying strong. You can beat this m-fer. Anything I can do, please do not hesitate to ask.
@AnarchoNinaWrites thank you love. i just want people fighting to get all the medical care we all deserve. get that Medicaid if you don't have insurance. fight for #Medicare4All
and while we're at it, send me all the cute little otters, pandas, dogs, cats, hippos... heck all baby animals gifs, memes, videos you can get. i need as many hits of serotonin i can get. i won't let the eugenicists win.
peachfrontLove is real, & so are cute borbs! (They are not babies, they are seniors but I still hope they bring a smile)

Crap. Crap. Crap.
I am glad that you are getting surgery.
Andrew C. White@blogdiva Got it early. That's great news for bad news. Take gentle care of yourself
Ken Anderson@blogdiva I'm sorry to hear about this. So glad to hear that you are happy with your doctors. I wish you the best as you work through this. Take care.
My Blue Check is MIA@blogdiva You can beat this. My wife did. Stay strong.
Shar(yna)Tran/Shark(aeopteryx)@blogdiva So grateful they caught it early and that you have a great team on your side. ๐ซ All the best for your healing journey!
Your Cool Uncle Itzy@blogdiva I'm sorry to hear that. It's a tough road, and it's really scary. I had a different kind of cancer, but if you need an ear my DMs are open
@itzyg thank you love. i'll keep this in mind.
pcarlson001@blogdiva Oh, damn. Years ago I went through lumpectomy/radiation for stage zero. Iโm here if you have any questions. โค๏ธ
@pcarlson001 it's similar but i don't even have a lump. it's less than 2mm big, but my MD is like, "am gonna get this out of your body. you're going home the same day. then you're having targeted chemo. then you'll be cancer free. LET'S GO!
am digging her ferocious focus on this. she is not wasting any time at all.
Steve's Place@blogdiva Chin up. You've got this. Sending kind thoughts.
@blogdiva I hope the best for you! The meds and techniques are much better! Look to see if you qualify for a cancer immunotherapy program.

teacher ciat@blogdiva oh dear. sending you the biggest of hugs, and wish you strength on the journey ahead.
Amadi Lovelace@blogdiva stage 1. Thatโs the best case scenario. Iโm gonna hold onto the positivity for you because I know itโll be hard for you to do that. When you need some, come poke me.
I wish you didnโt have to deal with this. Iโm sorry. Fuck cancer sideways.
@amaditalks thank you bb. will hold you up to your promise ๐ ๐ ๐
Jesse@blogdiva You will absolutely beat this. ๐ค๐ค๐ค

Jorge Caballero, MD@blogdiva Stage 1 has a great prognosis, and you're spot-on for underscoring the importance of getting checked/screening mammograms. Early detection makes a *huge* difference. Sending good vibes your way, and happy to point out good sources of information on the topic.
@DataDrivenMD send them all my way. kind of amazed at how aggressively fast and focused my MD is, but she also is one of the leading experts @ Mt Sinai. it's all been microsurgery. super-targeted biopsies with the one surgery that led to finding the area. not even a lump formed (<2mm). so am EXTREMELY happy with my primary phys, who after YEARS of me trying to get proper mammos at Beth Israel, decided to send me to Lennox Hill. that really was key. the radiology team at Lenox Hill is ๐ ๐ ๐.
