So we went to my follow up appointment last week and we found out they did get all the Melanoma out of my leg but that the cancer had spread to the Lymph Nodes. They only found a microscopic amount in each of the three nodes they took out but they are concerned that they found it in all three. Shawn and I were in such shock, we couldn't even think of what to say we were holding back the tears until the doctors left. We thought for sure that the cancer hadn't spread so we were very scared. We had my family come over again to give us both blessing to help us through this trying time. I will tell you that it has REALLY helped me not be so worried. I know that things will all be okay in the end but we just have to get through the next couple months and everything will be okay.
What I have to do next is deliver Celee with in the next 3 to 4 weeks. My OBGYN said to me today that we might be able to have my c-section on April 10Th as long as her lungs are good. Which will put me at 37 weeks. So we will monitor her and know more the closer we get to that date. Once I have delivered her they will do a Cat Scan and an MRI to make sure it hasn't spread through out the rest of my body. Then about a week later they will do another surgery to take out the rest of the Lymph Nodes in my groin to make sure they got all of it out of that area. I'm not looking forward to all of the surgery's but I am ready to have this all over with and just get to relax with my cute little family in our new house.
I just want to say thanks to all my family and friends for ALL their support. All of your visits, phone calls and even little text messages help out so much to know that people are thinking and praying for you. I would never be able to get through all of this with out every single person in my life, you all mean the world to me. I know that Shawn and I will live a long happy life together and grow old together! I love you honey and thanks for being my rock through all of this, your strength keeps me going each day! Ü
