Just a quick update on day 1 at Mayo (pressed for time will update in point form) ;
-we met with our GP (Marie MacBride who is fantastic) and basically reviewed the work done to date.
-consensus was reached with diagnosis after an expensive review of the MRI, pathology slides and lab results
-CT will be reviewed tomorrow
-meeting scheduled tomorrow with oncologist surgeon and medical oncologist to delve deeper into the details and treatment plan
-positive HER2 results were received from SHR which means a more aggressive form of cancer but there's a targeted drug (herceptin) which will be able to be administered to fight specifically this receptor
-flight has been booked for Alyssa departing Rochester, MN tomorrow at 5:50pm as there's a large storm forecast and we want to ensure she's able to reach Saskatoon in time for Chemo at noon; in the event it's cancelled we have the beast on wheels which will rise 8 inches and surmount any ice/snow thrown it's way.
-Alyssa enjoyed touring the historical parts of the Mayo clinic.
