Editorial Summary
Dawn provides an update following a meeting with a new surgeon regarding potential cancer on her adrenal gland. While indicators from a PET scan and blood work suggest a growth, the surgeon noted that the scan has previously provided false positives. Consequently, a biopsy is required to confirm the diagnosis before surgery can be scheduled. Dawn discusses the potential surgical procedure, which may involve the removal of an adrenal gland, and the subsequent recovery process involving hospital stays and possible steroid use. She expresses concern regarding the scheduling backlog, noting that a biopsy and subsequent surgery might conflict with her planned travel in June and July. Despite the medical uncertainty, Dawn shares a positive interaction with hospital staff who described her as an outlier due to her resilience and positive attitude despite facing multiple surgeries and cancer treatments. She concludes by mentioning her upcoming colonoscopy and the difficulty of the preparation process.
