The doc just called. The final pathology report is in. The biopsy that found it also got it all; what remained were pre-cancerous cells inside the offending organ and nothing even vaguely abnormal anywhere else. It was, indeed, grade 1 and stage 1, and while I get to follow up every 4 months for the next 3 years, and every 6 months for the rest of my life, the medical part of this saga is essentially over.
Now we get to see what the non-medical aftereffects turn out to be. I’m not so foolish as to believe there will be none.
Congratulations! What wonderful news! I am soooo happy for you. *HUGS*
