Keeping A Breast

When I got home from work the breast care nurse telephoned to say that all the bigwigs had had their meeting about me yesterday, and all absolutely agreed that as my cancer has melted away so amazingly (something they hardly ever see), that they feel so positive about my results that they have decided that my best way forward is to have a little op, (a wide local incision) to conserve the breast and the removal of some lymph nodes to the right armpit, a bit of radiotherapy and I'm done!!! When all along they had told me that mastectomy was my path.

 There goes my boob job! Ha. 

 I phoned Tommy straight away, told the kids then rushed round to Mum and Dads to give them the great news (it's their wedding anniversary tomorrow, so I think they liked my 'gift'). Actually they ended up giving me a gift... Pink Champagne!

 Tommy came home, very emotional with a beautiful chemo charm of a locket and a bottle of pink Champagne!



Q: What did one boob say to the other boob? 
A: You’re my breast friend
