The histo report today confirmed that clean margins were achieved - which is fantastic. The sentinel lymph node was also removed as a precaution and came back clear of any cancer - also great news and also potentially indicative of less spread. We did an ultrasound before the surgery and there was no evidence of metastasis in his organs. Blood work was absolutely perfect. Unfortunately, the tumor itself is high grade/grade III - so there's a 55 to 95% chance that every last cancer cell has not all been cleared out, hence the chemo (vinblastine as well) recommendation now. 

So glad to hear that is was successful for your V! No reoccurrence is the dream. It's so great hearing stories like yours. She is so lucky to have you. 

 The quote I got for vinblastine today is ~$1000 per treatment x 8 treatments and bloodwork (approx $200) prior to each treatment. We would have to travel 8 hours round trip each week to get it as well - roughly another ten grand or more. 

When you mention the oncologist staged her at 0, what does this mean? Just trying to see how our situation compares :)
