On June 14, 2013 I was diagnosed with breast cancer. It had not gone to other places in my body, and now I have completed chemo and mastectomy (followed by mastectomy on normal side). I have been able to work continuously, with the enormous and unending support of my patients, my staff and my coworkers. I continue to be humbled by the constant kindness provided to me by those I am supposed to be careing for, and by the many who have walked this path before me.

last chemo (hopefully) tomorrow
I hate to admit, but I like the chemo day. I have someone I love that
drives me and we chat. And it is fairly pleasant. There are people
there much worse off than I am. Now, the next 6 days, I could do
without. I am just remaining calm, and being open to what the outcome
is. Except the steroids don't help with the calm.

Saturday and Sunday were full days. Katrina, my college friend, came to
visit, which is always fun. Then we went to see our cousin, a Duke
freshman, row in a regatta. I have to admit it was my first
regatta. Then we drove to Stateville to pick up our 12 year old from his
grandparents. He had been a busy boy, symphony, running, and lots of
farm stuff before this. I am tired, but doing fine.
