Awww...what a little cutie! I had a kitty have a partial mastectomy last year and she recovered fine and is fat and sassy now.
All good thoughts for Emily. On 12/16/06, Jennifer Phaewryn O'Gwynn <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
Just an update on Emily, my friend Renee's girl with breast cancer. She had a total mastectomy, they removed both mammary chains at once (sometimes they can only do one at a time due to not having enough skin to close the incisions). She'll be starting her chemo after her sutures are removed in two weeks, and the pathology report will be back at that time too. The tumor was removed at the beginning of December and it was diagnosed as Adenocarcinoma. The surgeon said he didn't see any other tumors during the mastectomy, so things are looking promising. She's REALLY cute in her t-shirt. This way she doesn't have to wear an cone (elizabethan collar): http://ucat.us/Emily-postsurgery.gif http://ucat.us/Emily-postsurgery2.gif Thanks to everyone on your positive thoughts and well wishes for her! She seems to be doing good, she has a pain patch on, and is on a course of post-surgical antibiotics. She was more active earlier, Renee thinks she may have overdone it and is now a little sore, as she is sleeping in her bed on the floor now (as opposed to climbing on the bed, etc). Renee is a member here too, BTW, she's just not come out of her shell yet enough to talk... :-) (so any replies, she will see) Phaewryn
