      Linda,

      Thank you so much for your letter.  It was comforting to get the information mainly because we were in somewhat of a panic state.  Her doctor did call her yesterday and said that after the excision there was no more cancer detected.  I told my sis that she needs to get the pathology report so that she can know more about it.  From what I understand the depth was .40mm and the doctor didn't seem very concerned about it.

      God bless you all for being here and sharing your experiences.
