Breast Cancer

Breast cancer, ugly words.  My friend Kim called a few weeks ago she had a mammo they found nodules, I did my best to reassure her that the majority of the time they are nothing.  Hers were something.....so her I go again....she not quite 43, has 4 kids aged 4-15, they need her.  I promised her I'd be there for her and I will.  Brings back so many memories of Julie, in so many ways they are alike.  Her surgery is scheduled soon to get it out and then we will see about radiation vs chemo or both.   Now it might be my turn....my mammo is abnormal again. 3 nodules in my left breast, very tender, can't sleep on that side, my biopsy is Wednesday and it's Sunday now then we have to wait for the pathology report.  I've done this before but this time it's different and I'm scared it really is something but I won't tell Jim that.....not till I have to.  Dr Stoutenburg, the oncologist I schedule for has been great, he's reassuring and keeping me grounded.  He will do right by me no matter what happens
Keep us in your prayers.
