I had the operation and it was a success. I am told that I have a 95% chance of the cancer not reoccurring, and I don't need radiation and chemo. That is a relief.
Last Friday, my husband drove me to see my brother. It was a long drive in my condition, I am still pretty weak. But it was good to see him. He made a comment thanking me for taking him out of the nursing home and giving him a break. I am sorry that we can only be doing this about once a week until I get my driving privileges back in about two weeks. For right now, I am dependent on my husband to drive me, and let's face it, his plate if pretty full taking care of me.
However, I was really struck by how much my brother needs me to stay alive and take care of him as much as I can. If something happens to me permanently, his life is going to go even more down hill. Such is life.
