More bad karma. Or something.

Official call with the path result came this morning: it's cancer. Stage 1 clinically so far, which is good. Grade 3 histology, which is bad. I won't get away without chemo and the survival rate is lower. I hope, hope, hope this is not triple-negative (which would be added bad on top).

At least now I know for sure and I can make a plan and get ready. They should have the rest of the results (receptor status etc.) by my appointments Monday morning, or at least sometime early next week. I'll find out when my surgery will be - hopefully asap. With that histology I want this f*cker out.

Time to practice meditation, drink green tea, eat very healthy foods ... and stop shaking.
