Path Report

Well, it's definitely not what I wanted to hear, but it's what I expected.  The cancer cells they found in the mass they took out last week were metastatic colon cancer cells.

Laymen's terms: the colon cancer spread to my ovary.

Damn it.

The good news (or, the good news I'm pulling from the conversation) is that there wasn't necessarily a "tumor" found, and many of the cells they found were necrotic (dead or dying).

We won't have a game plan until next week when we meet with the doctors, but at least we know the freaking beast is trying to come back.

Bring it, bitch.  I've got an army.  :)

A resounding *booooooooooo* coming from up here.
But you've kicked its ass before...you'll do it again.

Of this I am certain.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again: Keep "Hangin' Tough".

Ugh! No, not a surprise, but still stinks! But hopefully this means the Xeloda is working? And hopefully they got it all, so there is no more cancer in that area.
Keep kicking back! I still believe you will win!

Praying that the cancer cells are all dying off. I hope your back pain lessens soon.
