    <p>Hugs.  Worrisome but nonetheless good news.  I just went through
      this with one of my closest friends and after the surgical
      procedure she has followed a naturalist doctor protocol and that
      has made all of the difference in her confidence and recovery.

                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default">Hi
                      dear FUUSM  Friends,</div>
                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default">I've
                      really enjoyed the snowpeople and appreciated the
                      meditation group on Wednesdays.. THANKS so much!! 
                      I have been very appreciative of my Quaker group,
                      too   (which I've been joining by Zoom on many
                      Sundays at the same time as the FUUSM service.) </div>
                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default">I'd
                      rather share this news to you all here and not try
                      to talk over Zoom..  some of you realize that my
                      most recent mammogram showed a concerning mass in
                      my right breast. Here is the best update or rather
                      breast update.  </div>
                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default">Quite
                      an exhausting experience so far with all the
                      different doctors, tests, medical people, etc.  
                       Friday was the longest- 3 plus hours at at the
                      oncology center here in Parkersburg and getting
                      opinion from oncologist, Dr. Nik Shah.   Best news
                      under all the circumstances...   Latest
                      recommendation is that I need to only have
                      lumpectomy - the mass (lobular carcinoma in situ)
                      on another form he called it " malignant neoplasm
                      of overlapping sites of rt. female breast".. This
                      is NOT like more serious cancers.. it appears to
                      be non-invasive and is "confined" and carries a
                      high risk of developing breast cancer..    It's
                      all a bit confusing and diagnostic tests show more
                      info  and analysis of risk factors and possible
                      treatments. He recommends that I have just the
                      lump removed (with extra tissue).. and there is NO
                      need for radiation treatment (which My surgeon had
                      suggested might be a possibility) and there is not
                      possibility at this stage for involvement of any
                      lymph nodes.   A mastectomy is NOT recommended (or
                      likely approved  following current guidelines for
                      my particular "cancer").  I will need regular
                      followup and there was suggestion for drug
                      treatment that would further reduce my risks..
                      Some are not good choices because of my particular
                      medical history and the other concern is my
                      osteoporosis.   I had blood taken for genetic
                      tests which will cover a variety of cancer related
                      genes. Info may be helpful in guiding best
                      treatment even though I'm unlikely to have the
                      BRCA genes, because my sister did not (but both of
                      her girls did and have had cancer surgeries). It
                      will be interesting to learn more there.   All has
                      been a bit confusing..   So glad to have my son
                      Will's wife, Dr. Jane to review, research and
                      explain more to me!!! Including what doctors do
                      what..       so my next step will be to get back
                      to my surgeon (Dr. Roberts) and ask his office to
                      schedule me for that surgery..  It is an easy
                      outpatient surgery.. and there is no immediate
                      rush.. so I'm expecting that some time in
                      January.  More analysis for that specimen
                      collected at that surgery, may be helpful too.. </div>
                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default"> 
                         So dear Friends.. I'm very fortunate and
                      counting my blessings,   not sure when I'll join
                      you on zoom but if I don't or leave early, you'll
                      understand... lots of calls coming in from
                      family,etc.    Hope you are able to read this. </div>
                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default">Holding
                      you all in the light, too during this challenging
                      time. </div>
                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default">Cindy
                      Taylor</div>
                    <div class="ydp3ef9b8f1yiv6879387110gmail_default">PS
                      not to scare you more.. but my daughter-in-Law,
                      Dr. Jane (pediatric pulmonologist at UPMC in
                      Pittsburgh)  told me yesterday that the medical
                      facilities have been hacked too- by that same
                      Russian attack hitting government.    they haven't
                      been able to communicate with each other... so
                      it's really causing chaos there..     Get on the
                      phone if you have to communicate and can't rely on
                      communications getting between institutions now!! 
                      SCARY..   may explain some of the difficulties </div>
