Facing the giant

sent this to the family group

Somehow hearing Dr Benita's calm answers and explanations I realised that cancer isn't a giant. It's not the"Big C" to be spoken of in hushed tones or not even mentioned at all rather like Voldermort.

Cancer was reduced to manageable levels by science but I have back- up. Where science might sometimes fail, my God is still in control

Hi guys

Already saw the surgeon Dr Benita  Tan. Left breast biopsy done on friday- prelim results show lump is benign. Still testing tho. Final result on 28 june

Surgery fixed on 28 june. Dont know time yet. Will stay the night n be discharged around 7 am on 29 June if all ok.

Surgeon's briefing very clear. Answered most of my questions before i even asked them.

Right breast will be completely removed. I have decided no reconstruction. Will use temp padding and a prothesis later when completely healed.

Scar will be a neat line with internal stitches that won't need to be removed.

Will have a tube and little bottle for 7-14 days to drain excess fluid. Will be able to go to jkt 14-16 july. Will be able to resume normal activities upon discharge after surgery.

No restriction on food but shld hv more fruits n veg n rest n exercise ( except swimming until i get suitable swimsuitšŸ¤“)

Nat stayed with us thru the morning.  Came back at 2pm for blood tests xray at 2pm n anaesthetist at 4pm- praise the Llord for that. Now we go in peace to Penang.

Thank you all for your prayers.

Love you all

God Bless you
