To make a long story short: About a month ago I found a HUGE lump in my left breast, went to the doctor and they said I needed a mammogram and to see a surgeon. So, I saw the surgeon, had the mammy and a sonogram. No one seemed to be worried at this point. SOOO I was told, "when in doubt, take it out". On April 29th I had the "lump" removed in a pretty simple procedure. I was home by noon and feeling pretty good..thanks to some good pills too :) At 3:30 the surgeon called. I found it strange she was calling in the first place. Usually nurses call to check on you. She said when she took it out, that lump, it did not look right and sent it right away to pathology. SO and she said very quietly...you indeed have Breast Cancer! I froze...what? me? wow? holy shit! I don't have time for cancer I thought!
Ok so that is the first part of my story.......

Do you mind if I forward the link to Beth in Austin?
I also want to tell my teacher, Marcy about you, because she might have some sage advice for you!
Of course, I am sure everyone has some kind of little advice for you. ;-)
I am working on a care package! Are you on penguins now or off? ha ha
