Yesterday I went to the Christie for the biopsy results. There are NO cancerous cells. NONE. They're doing some cross-checks to be sure, but the consultant oncologist says there's a very high chance they'll come back negative too. They remain "suspicious" of it, so I will continue in the cycle of MRI scans, biopsies, results etc - but as of yesterday, there are NO cancerous cells. I'm not totally out of the woods, but I'm exactly where I need to be at this stage in the process. Yesterday when the surgeon told me, I cried. Relief, I guess. Today I feel happy and relieved but remain mindful that this is "only" one step in the process. It's a huge one - and it's in the right direction - but the fight against the Dritsekk continues. Even so, it's great news - just what I hoped but didn't dare dream. Jacqui x
