It was just reading the blog that made me realize there can be so much more to it than just cutting out a lump. I know i can do it, but i sure don't want to. It may mean selling all the animals again. And what about my gardens and stuff? That is what gets me going each day. Hubby has little interest in that. I was hoping to have a few enjoyable years before my memory dwindled and i can't do stuff any more. Crap, this sucks so bad.I was thinking about you today.I would be freaking out some too. You inevitably go through all the what ifs, but hopefully it will end up being what if it's something else. My friend's husband went through this. They had a very rough week until the biopsy came back negative. She is a nurse practitioner, and knows all about the size and shape and margins and all that... she was expecting the worst, but it's proof that good things can happen, it was benign. She was really freaked out because it was her husband with the lump. They never expected that, especially as her mother was diagnosed stage 2 over 10 years ago, but today she is healthy and cancer free.
