So my wife's surgery is tomorrow. They'll do a check on the lymph nodes before the surgery to see if the cancer has spread yet. If it has, they'll remove them. If not, they'll just do the double mastectomy and be done with it. Should be just an overnight thing and she'll be back home by Wednesday.
Family and friends have been wonderful. Lots of help with the kids. They also used a website (
Take Them A Meal | simplifying meal coordination so friends, family, neighbors and co-workers can show they care) to organize food delivery sign ups. In one day, we had family/friends fill up four weeks of meals for us. So we won't have to worry about meals until the point where my wife goes back to work. So nice to have so many people help us out while we focus on her recovery.
