Informative appointment

Hello friends,
I hope that you are having a great week...it sure feels like Fall around here.

We had a very informative meeting with the plastic surgeon yesterday.  The doctor was very kind and supportive.  He was in no way trying to "sell" his services...rather inform us of all the pros and cons of various reconstructive options.

After much thinking and praying...I think we are still leaning towards not doing reconstruction for many reasons.  I am trying to trust my gut feeling that I keep returning to..while giving each option lots of thinking.

We are still awaiting the genetic test results...which will hopefully be soon.  That will be the final step for scheduling the double mastectomy. 

I had a very peaceful weekend and was able to not think about cancer very much.  What a gift!!

Please continue to pray for surgery scheduling and the genetic test.  I hope that it moves along quickly so we can move towards healing and being CANCER FREE!!

Thanks for respecting my decision and knowing that lots of lots of thought have gone into the process.  This is the right decision for me...but everyone is different.

Love, Rachelle
