Okay...so we went to see the doctor yesterday and he showed us the pictures of the insides of my mom (her ovaries and uterus...the ones I saw after her surgery last month) and described what they were. He said that everything looked good and there is NO CANCER!!! I cannot tell you how happy and relieved I felt. I started crying and asked the doctor if I could hug him. I was just kidding, but he said, "sure," and leaned over and hugged me and I kept saying, "Thank you!" (not for the hug). Then he hugged my mom, then I hugged my mom...it was kinda funny. Then he handed me a tissue. He is SUCH a nice doctor. And he said my mom can't get ovarian cancer because she no longer has ovaries! Haha!
So one more hurdle is over, but we still have to worry about her abdominal aneurysm, which I KNOW will have to be operated on one day, and I don't think it's close to being as easy of a surgery as this most recent one, so I continue to worry...it also could burst at any time, and it if does, it's pretty much fatal. She has an ultrasound on it next month to see if it's grown, and if it's gotten any larger, they will probably want to operate.
For now, I'm just going to be happy that she's cancer-free! Thank you everyone for your support!
