The BIG Whew!!!!!!!!!!!!

Tuesday, October 09, 2012

I slept well last night after leaving my ultrasound appointment. The doctor read it while I was still there, in fact, he waited for the tech to bring it to him across the hall and read it on the spot so I could leave there breathing normally.
I do not have breast cancer. 'Nuff said,, It is all I needed to hear as I darned near flew out of the office.
Ironically, it is Breast Cancer Awareness month with runners, posters, pink this and that. I do not need this or that, I am completely aware of it now and forever. My aunt was only 67 years old when she died,, lost her right breast too..
It seems like I dodge a bullet with one disease and I manage to scoop up another... somebody must think I lead a boring life...not anymore..

I want to thank every single person who prayed for me and sent thoughts and goodies to cheer me up. I could not get better friends and support. My DD is also a great supporter,, the only one in my family...
Thank you Sparkers for taking time out of your precious life to help me get through this terrifying time. I know it will come back to all of you a hundredfold.. Love you all, Linda

You cannot imagine how joyous this news makes me! Well, maybe you can ... And I love that you can make jokes at your own expense ... laughter is surely the best medicine, and a gift from Heaven! Report Inappropriate Comment

Glad things went well, my friend. If there's anything I can do from here, holler, ok? And I mean anything! (I spend my whole winter crafting, knitting, crocheting, tatting, etc. So if there's something that would cheer you up, just ask!) I'm going to tat myself a Christmas doily this year, and I've got a whole tub full of dish towels to crochet the tops on for hanging them from cabinets and appliances (handy little things, lol) and I have to remember to make potholders before Thanksgiving. Just let me know have a wonderful week! Report Inappropriate Comment

I'm so glad for you. I had a cancer scare (colon) that required several tests (2 were invasive) that had me so terrified, I started doing things I'd always meant to do. People talk about Bucket List after that film but this was years ago. I even travelled to another country (I've lived in other countries but this was a specific trip I felt I needed to do in my lifetime) some months after. When you get a bad scare, it's life-changing, too. Report Inappropriate Comment

Leaving for my targeted ultrasound in a little while. I am hopeful that I am not following in the footsteps of two of my maternal aunts. Breast cancer is NOT on my list of choices.

Whew. I make more than my share of mistakes; just not sure if my mistake is in trying to improve things, or in letting things go on as usual. Report Inappropriate Comment
