YES! IT WAS AN ABSCESS AND NOT CANCER!
I got a very garbled message on my answering machine from one of her friends in NY – don’t have all the details but she repeated twice that it was an infection and no sign of cancer! Unbelieveably happy at the moment.
Thanks everyone! All the good thoughts and prayers worked.
I have to say the last two days were about the worst in my life (and that is saying a lot). I can’t imagine how Andrea felt. And everyone else is celebrating and she is probably too drugged up to know!
