...17.
thanks for nothing, oncotype dx.
chemo starts tuesday.
:(
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

i love you. and have been checking all all day...
now i've done my bit research already on the 17 score.. it says that 17 and below is the low risk score. so that's still good right!? i'm sorry about chemo though... but my love, no cancer for you... get it out, gone, gone, gone.
i'm here for anything.

Dear Meghan,
I looked on the net to read about the numbers and find you're "on the cusp." I'm sure it was hard for you, waiting, but now you know and now you'll do the chemo, and you'll have the knowledge that you've done everything available to get this out of you, once and for all.
I'll hold you in my heart as you go through this and send you warm hugs daily.
I wish I knew you well, but you are obviously so like the stuff of what your mother and aunt are made - and of dear, sweet Dody - that I know your strength and surrounding love bubble (that is so evident in this blog) will take care of things.
I look forward to the day I can post a comment from one survivor to another!!!
Love,
Linda
Meghan,
I'm so sorry to see that this number is not what we had all hoped/wished/prayed for. However it sounds like your fans have all done a bit of research on your behalf and the news is positive. I am sorry that you have to go through chemo, but our love and strength will surround you as you go through this phase.
Sending you as many good thoughts and love as we can muster,
erica xxxxooooo
The only way out is through. Now that the waiting is over, you can go about fighting this thing off. We are all here for you.
so much love,
Lia
