I Don't Know What It Means, But It's Not Great

This afternoon, we got the call from my surgeon's nurse that my cancer is hormone receptor negative.  I don't know what that means, but it's not great.  I think it means I will have to have chemotherapy.  Whatever... As Richard says, I've been served a shit sandwich.

There is good news...  I am also HER2+.  I don't know what that means either, but I think it means there are drugs available that help reduce the chances of it showing up to the party again.

On the bright side, my husband is a ROCK STAR!  Seriously, he is amazing!  He spends his bathroom time studying all the cancer information and for those of you who know Richard, he's in the bathroom a lot!  HA!  I'm just happy he is using that time in there productively, opposed to watching old WWE videos on YouTube.  In all seriousness, someday I will post the details of all his awesomeness.  I just don't have the energy to do that right now or the emotional strength.  The great thing with Richard, when I'm not strong, he picks up the slack and is strong for the both of us.
