Thankfully hubby was able to go to the appointment with the oncologist this morning. My mom stayed with L and H (h tested positive for the Flu yesterday!), she wasn't feeling good either but didn't want me to go alone.
The doctor cut to the chase right away, it's a large mass that has over taken my right ovary, right now they are treating the mass as cancer. I will have surgery Feb 18th. They are hoping to do it laparoscopic but there is a chance they won't be able to in which case they would have to open me up. If they can do it laproscopic then its out patient with about a week recovery. If they have to do surgery then I will be in the hospital 2-3 days with 4-6 weeks recovery. They are going to remove the mass, the ovary and tube. They will then test the mass to see if its malignant. If it is in fact malignant then after the baby arrives they will remove my other ovary, tube etc... As with any surgery there is risk to me and the baby. I'm so scared for so many reasons. I'm scared its malignant cancer , I'm scared of losing my baby girl and losing my life- missing out on everything with my kids, leaving them without a mom !
Right now I just want to hold my babies!!! As I write this post crying, devastated by our news and holding L while she sleeps because I can't bare to put her in her crib. Please pray for me and for my family.
