what I know so far

Last Thursday I had a fine needle aspiration in Dr. Shim's office at Kaiser. Within an hour she called me to say it was cancer. It turns out that Feb 4th was World Cancer Awareness Day. My sister Debbie flew in and along with Leon and cousin Hillary, we tried to understand all the IFs and THENs. Now we are waiting to hear if I have the genetic marker BRCA and what type of cancer it is and whether it's ER/PR +/-.
