Joan, I don't know what a sentinel node biopsy is, I will research.

Joe, in all reality, she's better off at home, you can't sleep in the hospital and at risk all the time for MRSA. Her DH is a jewel and will be and has been her biggest support.

Thats good news, as long as the pain can be managed at home.

Hospitals are a good place to go get sick at...

Joan, she had a bilateral mastectomy, they never did this procedure and I assume that was because of her family history. She just wanted it done.
