That's a hell of a way to start a blog, right? Well it's true. I have Breast Cancer! I'm shocked to, well at least I was when I first found out. OK let me back up and kind of fill you in on how I found out.
So about a month or so ago, I started to feel a lump in my breast. My husband kept telling me to get it checked out. Of course I put it off, didn't want to take the time off work and use my PTO (you know how that goes). So on Friday April 3rd I work a half day and went to the Dr. that afternoon. I had a physical and a Pap, the Dr. felt my lump and she sent me to get a mammogram on Tues April 6. (FYI that is some painful shit). Anyways they told me I needed a biopsy, so that happened on Wed April 7. Then I got a call on Thurs April 9 with the results. I had Breast Cancer. So I was back at Dr. on that Friday for about 5 hours or so, do more test and getting more info, and guess what, I've used up all my damn PTO hours anyway. Ok so now I'm overloaded with info about breast cancer, I've talked to so many people in those days, and has read so much....so I took an Easter break. (I will post pics)...
So now we're caught up so yesterday (April 13) I went back to the Dr. to have a PET scan. (it's really called a PET scan). These people put me in a tube so small, all I could do was close my eyes and talk to GOD and myself (no I'm not crazy, at least not yet). And today I was back at the damn Dr. for a MRI, (back in damn tube), and yes I will be back at the Dr. tomorrow. I will keep you posted.
Before I end this post, I will tell you that I am Fine,Fabulous, Fierce, and a Fighter! I refuse to let this defeat me. God has better things in store for me. Somebody once sent me a text (cause no body really says things anymore...lol) that said "Stop waiting for the storm pass and learn to dance in the rain". That's exactly what I plan on doing.

ReplyDeleteHi Cousin,
ReplyDeleteI too was shocked and overwhelmed of the news. I know that these trials and tribulations that God sends us through are merely a test of our faith.
It is so important to hold on to that vibrant spirit and warrior thinking. It is a battle, but it's one that can be conquered!
I love you and you are truly in my prayers.
