Thanks to early detection, and the wonderful Doctor’s, especially Dr. McCready and all the staff at Princess Margaret Hospital, I am beyond thrilled to tell you that he got the whole tumour out with clear margins and my lymph node was clear. Step one complete.
Now step two starts, they discovered my tumour was considered aggressive, and I am waiting for the appointment with my oncology team. We are also still waiting for some receptor results. I will most probably still have to have chemo, but as a precautionary/preventative treatment, then radiation. It’s not going to be easy, but I will get through it.
I have been surrounded by such amazing love and positive vibes from so many, and I’m so grateful to all of you for your support. I wish I could reach out and give you all a personal hug.
I know I have a tough journey still ahead, but I know I will be ok.
We told our girls, then our family at our Passover Seder last night. Needless to say, it was a very happy night in our home.
Love
Randy

Next stop on my journey is April 11th. I have a date with the Oncology team at PMH to determine my next steps. It’s going to be a tough 9 months. Can someone please fast forward me to 2014.
