2 best syllables ever!


BE-NIGN!

Those were the two best syllables to reach my ears since "Preg-Nant".

Oh My GOD- was I relieved! I almost could not believe it

The doctor said that the biopsy report came back "Benign Lipoma".
He said that it was 3 inches in diameter. Which is almost 8 cm.
The doctor also said it could grow back, or I can develop many more.

I let out a huge sign of relief. The doctor changed my sterri-strips, told me to come back in 2 weeks.

I gave my hubs a Huge kiss and hug and then finally told him just how worried I was.

Of course he gave me the speech that I should have not been so worried and threw my own words of advice back at me: "only worry when there is something to worry about".

I said "Im not sure why I am like this. I dont let things get to me most of the time- but I can not relax when it comes to health issues- whether it's mine, or any other loved ones."

He asked why. Well, I never really thought about it. So I took a minute to actually think. I wasn't li,e this as a kid. Not as a teen. But......ahhhh, it hit me! When my dad got sick!

I said " I guess when Dad got sick it blindsided me. My head was spinning because I didn't expect it. So now I need to know 'Worst Case Scenerio".

I need to prepare for the worst, and hope for the best.

I guess all of my praying did it.

I texted my daughter to tell her the good news.

"Larry Lump Was Just A PUNK"

My husband told me to just knock the rest of the health concerns out quick. So I got right on it.
I called my Primary Doc to ask what my pap results were......they came back "inconclusive".

So I finally made an appointment with a GYN.

I called the radiology place to try for the 4th time in a week to schedule my right breast ultrasound and pelvic ultrasound....... They have to call me back.

So now I have to wait for the appointments.

But what sweet relief.
I feel as Moms, we need to take care of ourselves. We need to make sure that we are in good health in order to care for our kids. Kinda like when a plane is going down. You are supposed to strap the oxygen mask to yourself SO you can help others!

I have learned my lesson. I will not wait so long to take care of myself.

Thank you GOD for answering my prayers!
