Yesterday I was off to Sloan once again. I had an appointment with the plastic surgeon and then an MRI. The plastic surgeon seems to think that I should have my first surgery, than radiation then the "exchange surgery" six months after I finish radiation.....His logic is that radiation should not be put off by completing two surgeries and than the healing process. I keep asking myself how long is this going to drag out? After much thought, I have come to realize once again that if anyone is capable of killing and getting rid of this cancer it is the doctors at Sloan so, I need to do what is right and not just try to rush through this.. The final layout of treatment will be determined on March 9th when I meet with the cancer surgeon and oncologist.
I woke up this morning in a much healthier frame of mind and decided that I needed to focus on getting healthy for surgery and not on the time factor. Saying that, I did my morning Yoga ( to the best of my ability) with Wai Lana on TV. I must admit, this is quite a sight! After the kids got off to school, I went for a walk. It felt great to get outside in the cool fresh air. Then...... I came home and crashed!
I will keep you posted..

Hey!!! I have to agree with you, Sloan is one of the best places to help you beat cancer. And, although it seems to be taking forever, getting healthy is the best thing. They know what they are talking about. Keep your positive attitude, it will and already has taken you so far. Does this mean the March 20th surgery is not definite? I guess you will know more on the 9th. Thinking and praying for you daily! Miss you lots at school! Keep that great attitude and this will all be over in time. I know you can do it Kay, look how far you have already come!!!
Hi Sweetie,
Well, that's quite a plan. I know you are disappointed with how long this will take. I am very impatient my self, however, you seem to have an instinct about the Drs. at Sloan and be able to get to an acceptance about it. I admire how brave and strong you have managed to stay. I pray for you every day and you are never far from my thoughts. I am looking forward to seeing you guys this weekend. It will be a fun time and will be great to see Maryann and hopefully Noreen. Kelly will be sporting her "new look" she has lost over 40 lbs. I, however, seem to have found some of them. Ha Ha. Take care and God Bless. I Love you. Kath
Hi Kay-

Hi Kay,
Sorry it took so long to log in to your blog. I can't believe its been 4 months already, you look great and I love your attitude. You are an inspiration to all of us. My family and I have you in our thoughts and prayers and know you are on your way to a full recovery just in time for the pool parties. We will celebrate this summer! Working on getting you the coolest hats.
Love ya,
Carmen and family (including my sister and mom)
Hi Kay,
Its Friday and you know how we love Fridays at school!! It must have been disappointing to hear the change in treatment. Only, Sloans is the best and it will all be worth it. Now, your doing yoga that must be fun. I've tried a few classes and it is hard. Stay positive and know that you are missed!!!
Love,
Maria

You are so courageous and you are an inspiration to the rest of us. I know that this must seem endless but they certainly know what they are doing at Sloan so just know that you are in the best possible place and under the best care We Stewarts are a stubborn type so we want every thing done immediately and ALL our way this is the Stewart coming out in you,,,,But you have already realized this and now seem to have accepted the plan I am so glad that you are finished with the chemo This cancer now realizes that you are one tough cookie You are much stronger than anything it can do NOBODY MESSES WITH MY CUZ!
All my love
julie
Hi Kay,
You must have been very happy with all this snow we got!!! I bet you, Dan and the kids got some major sledding in on the hill in your backyard!!! Stay strong, let the doctors do their job and stay focused on your recovery... OH, and by the way, stop trying to stand on your head...LOL
