I thought I should start this with at least one nice photo, because the next few are going to be not so pretty. See, I want to keep a record not just for myself, but for anyone who has to go through this. Unfortunately, having cancer means having scars. All kinds of scars. So, this is my advance warning... what follows may not be pleasant to look at, so feel free to skip this post if you have a delicate disposition. But for those of you who may be curious, or who might be getting ready for surgery, or know someone who is about to have surgery, I am not shy about my scars. Right now, they are a little frightening, but I know they will be better later.
