I’m not sure how many people celebrate one of the most emotional and difficult days of your life, but today I sure am!!!
It’s been one year since my last surgery, to remove all cancer cells from my groin. I had fully recovered from a partial vulvectomy 6 months prior, and this surgery was a MOHS to remove the cancer cells. It took a total of 3 resections to get clear margins, and it wasn’t until more than halfway through that my Xanax kicked in. 😳😳 Hubby and I stayed the night and I went back to #Stanford the following morning for my Plastic Surgeon to close up the wound. I didn’t end up needing a skin graft, thankfully. My team of doctors were absolutely amazing and my recovery was much easier than the #vulvectomy. (I’ll let you use your imagination).
Everything is great for me now; I get regular checkups and see the Gyn Oncologist next month. I’m so thankful for everyone who prayed and checked in on me…skin cancer along with ANY kind of cancer, is scary. Please check your body regularly and don’t be afraid to show your doctor something “weird”. 💗💗
