A Bit of a Scare

I went to the doctor a while back because of a damned cough I can't shake. She sent me for a CTscan.

The CTscan showed "something" so I went for a PTscan.

Turns out I have a pea-sized 'lump' inside my breast. I had a biopsy taken last week and I have a HUGE bruise there. I went for a mammogram today and a sonogram. Fortunately, neither hurt the bruised area. I learned my last mammo was 11 years ago. I vow to do better from now on.

No word yet on if the lump is cancer. The oncologist is 99% sure it is. Whatever, at least it was caught early on. He says surgery is easy, so I'm not terribly worried about it.

The cough, I suppose, is due to allergies. I have some medicines for it.

What it really is, is a blessing in disguise. Without it, I wouldn't have gone to the doctor and we wouldn't know about whatever is going on in me.

Sad

It is hard to write this, but I am not going to be a Grandma  next January. Michael called at 6:30 am yesterday (a Sunday) to say Megan had a miscarriage. They were at the hospital so he must have taken there. I don't know the whole story.

Megan is resting at home and healing physically. Michael and Megan are both healing emotionally.

One day at a time...

(I put away all the baby things I was making, but they will come out again soon, I hope!

Fourth of July

Had July 4th BBQ with Michael and Megan. Hot dogs, hamburgers, salad (with candied pecans!),corn on the cob, fresh squeezed lemonade (my donation) and Dunkin Donuts (from Mike and me). It was very enjoyable.

Megan looks great. She's about 7 weeks along, I think. We found out at 20 weeks if it is a boy or girl.
