Surgery went well. Really well! There were no other random bits of cancer and they were able to completely remove the tumor with clear margins. I spent one night and was discharged midday, with 4 small incisions on my belly. This was a couple of weeks ago already. Recovery was quick, and I am already feeling back to my old self, which is why I was more floored by the news delivered at yesterday's visit with the oncologist- I still need to do chemo... I'll be doing 6 rounds of carboplatin and doxil once a month for 6 months. Followed by a maintenance therapy of daily oral PARP inhibitors to prevent the cancer cells from repairing the damage done by the chemo.
