Biopsy

Things have been a bit hectic. Recently Muttie went in for a surgical biopsy of the breast and then underwent another surgery to create a new fistula so that she can be ready for the chemo and subsequent removal surgery.

At first they told her that she would probably undergo a few weeks of chemo before they removed it but after the initial biopsy results they modified that to three months (give or take what the final biopsy says and how the treatment goes).

Right now we are awaiting the results of the final biopsy which should not only pin point the type of treatment/drugs but get a more accurate duration time. We should know by the end of next week.

Pictures taken on Saturday of the breast in question.

Do NOT look if you are squeamish. GRAPHIC pictures:
