Just like that. It's surgery day

I woke up around 4:45am because I couldn't sleep anymore.  I took a shower, looked in on all of my sleeping kids and packed a light bag.

I'm a bit emotional this morning.  Chemo changed the inside of my body but this surgery will forever change the outside.  I nursed 5 kids for a total of 8 years (if you don't count the twins simultaneously) and I'm having a hard time saying goodbye to the part of me that nourished and soothed them.  These boobs were the first thing that really made me feel like a woman when I hit puberty...and what brought all the boys to my yard.

But, it's a new chapter in my life.  A chapter that begins my life as a survivor.  As NED (no evidence of disease).  As the warrior that everyone seems to think I am.  I'm ready to kick this bitch cancer to the curb!

See you all on the other side!
