Thanks so much to all of you for your prayers - I know they are working. I was so thankful to hear that the lymph nodes looked clear....now we just need to wait on pathology to confirm that and get a firm diagnosis. Your cards, gifts, meals and well wishes certainly lift my spirits. We are so blessed to have all of you in our lives.....
I am feeling really good today. Very little pain. My family just left to head back up North so I am getting ready for a nap.
I will write more later when my head is a little clearer....pain meds are a good thing! Love to All---Jan

Jan, so glad to see your Wednesday update; I have been checking about every half hour. It is a relief to hear you are not having much pain. You continue to be on my mind and in my heart. Sending loving thoughts your way. Love you, Cheryl
Jan,
You are in my thoughts and prayers.
I can certainly relate to your situation! I remember you coming with Debbie to our house the evening after my surgery.You said it was one of the hardest things you have ever done. Here I am almost 16 yrs.later. PTL.
This too shall pass!
Love and prayers, Dorothy
Hi Jan,
I'm just hearing this news for the first time today. I'm so glad that your surgery went well and that you are resting easy. You are in my thoughts and I will pray for good news every day. You and Bret have always been so good to me. Please let me know if there's anything I can do for you. Love, Sierra
Jan,
I heard from Dama about your surgery and wanted to let you know that our whole church down here in Conyers at Crosspoint Christian prayed for you on day of your surgery and we will continue to pray for your quick cancer-free recovery! God is in control!
Blessings,

Jan,
I just heard from Sierra about your news - I will keep you in my prayers and thoughts with each passing day. My mother too, is a breast cancer survivor-having found out at age 74 and her next birthday will be her 93rd. God takes good care of His flock and will lead you to a cancer-free recovery. Keep the faith and know that you have so many friends at Acuity that love you and carry dilligent prayers in their hearts for you. Love, Alice Williams
Hi Jan,
My brother, Dave Vukovich gave me your site. I am a 2 year breast cancer survivor. Just wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers.
I am glad to hear that your lymph nodes look clear.
I have been through chemo and a mascectomy,and wished then that I had someone who understood that I could relate to one on one. If you need some to talk to,have questions,laugh with or share the bc stories with, get my phone number/email from Dave. I will be happy to chat with you any time. I just do not want to post my info here .
Hang in there.I will keep checking your blogs and checking with my brother to see how you are.
Tommorrow is always a better day.

Glad to hear the positive news!! I've been reading the blog and wish we lived closer so I could stop by to check on you. I miss the good ole days when you were here in Conyers. I'll never forget what you did for me when I was on bed rest when pregnant with Raegan - you arranged to have someone bring me a meal every week for 6 weeks! Amazing! Take it easy and get some rest. I'll call you soon to catch up! Love you! Linda
Jan, just heard about your surgery from Debbie Schav. You have certainly been in my thoughts. Take care of yourself and we'll be thinking positive thoughts for you and your family. Sasha and Darren Clements
Jan Jan,
Heavens, child. Scare us all, will you? I suggest focusing on the current survival rate. I had a recent scare myself and was just bent backwards from worry, no sleep, no food, I'm sure you went through the same ordeal when you first knew something was up - and sat and thought about all the women I know who've survived. So far, all of them. That was a cheery thought in the darkness of my worry. I am sending positive thoughts your way and suggest you get something to make you really laugh - like maybe reruns of Whose Line Is It Anyway or some other show you really get a kick out of. It really does help. Hugs to Bret and the kids, and wish I could return the love in person from when Jake was born and you were such a trooper and a light in my life! God is with you all.
Oh, and keep us posted on treatments! My sister had what sounds to be exactly like yours - nothing at her annual, then a few months later BAM, then the lumpectomy and node removals, and chemo and radiation. As Diane Vance said in her comment above, it's a time that only another person who's been through it can understand and relate to, so let me know if you want her number to talk to her. She's very pragmatic, very no nonsense, and also very witty, so she'd be a good resource should you need another of the many I hope you have!
Way to hang in there sis! We'll keep praying, you keep feeling better!!
Love ya,
Kay
