Unhappy Me, Me, Me!

This a prayer request that is all about ME - for the sake of my husband and son.

I went in for a breast exam because I found a lump. I had a cyst before, quite a few years ago, so I figured he could just drain it and I could be on my way.

The news isn't good. He thinks it's cancer, and it's a lot bigger than I thought it was. Prior to the exam, he completely agreed with my theory that it was a cyst. After he examined it, he looked at me sternly and said "Kathy, this is cancer." He tried to drain it, but nothing came out.

I'm going to see a surgeon on Thursday. It's still possible it's a cyst (maybe he hit the wrong spot), but my doc says it's highly unlikely.

I'd be grateful if you would keep me in your thoughts and prayers.

Dear Cathy~ I will definitely keep your DH and son in my prayers, but Lady, you are getting the biggest dose of prayers right now. Please keep in mind that until you have the surgery/biopsy... nothing is for sure. So, we'll just try and think positive right now, OK??

Please do keep us posted and know that your NT family is here for you.

I'll keep you in my prayers Kathy. I hope it's not cancer but a benign lump.

Talking

I saw the surgeon this morning. ALL CLEAR, and NO knives! It was just a cyst, and he was able to drain most of it out using a needle and ultrasound. Only a small spot remains, and he highly suspects it's just me.

I'll have a mammogram to confirm this, but he told me to go ahead and smack my doc upside the head for scaring my husband and friends.

Thank you all so much for your prayers and concern.
