Ok a little mix-up today but it will be ok
Praise: I got financial assistance for the oncotype test - we don't have to pay for it. Got approval this morning.
Bad news is with all the mix-up between departments they didn't do the final test on the tumor so it won't be ready til 5pm tonight. Said they wouldn't do the final testing until I either paid for it or got approval for their assistance. Oncologist is going on vacation on weds and we are in Florence :-P so....... Oncologist will call me tomorrow over the phone with the results... hope it is good news or I will never go to Florence again. (Florence is where I was when I got the call that I have cancer).
Imagine God in His HUGE rocking chair, rocking you and saying, "It will be ok, you can do it. I will be right here for you". Oncotype score: 8, Rads 28, Bilateral arm, truncal LE and now Obstructive Sleep Apnea
Dx

Molly: Great news here. I guess I will keep enjoying Florence 
The score is in and I am in total shock!!! It was an 8! Never seen anyone with one that low... God is good! No chemo just rads and anti-hormone therapy. With all my drug allergies, I was really scared on what chemo would do to me... so I am so happy I don't have to go that route! Thanks for all your prayers and encouragement....
