Good news

I just saved a bunch of money on my car insurance.

Oops, sorry. Those ads just stick in my mind for some reason. Sort of funny in a really corny way.

No, really. My good news is that the lump in my breast has stayed the same size, so the surgeon is comfortable with having me wait till next summer to have my next mammogram and ultrasound. Yippee!!!

I finally got through today to doctors. It is hell to try to get one, but I have to coordinate all this dancing with three of them: the plastic surgeon, the surgeon and the infectious diseases doctor.

I just feel like wearing gloves and not touching anything in the office of the infectious diseases doctor. Just sounds bad and dirty. Found out today that he typically doesn't see patients on Friday and he is coming in especially to see me tomorrow. That is reassuring and scary all at the same time. He'll talk to me about the treatment, etc.

We're still planning the Sea World trip unless he tells me otherwise.

Monday, at 10 a.m. I'll have my catheter placed. I still can't get a good spelling on it. Something like grochong or something. I don't know.

I'm scared about all of this. I'm scared of more pain, I'm scared of it being really bad. I just want all this to be over and behind me.

I was serious about the good cry, alleve and ice cream helping me feel better. I feel clearer headed right now. Work was stressful, not knowing what was going to happen when was stressful. Hopefully I will have more answers after this appointment in the morning. Took Stinkerbelle to stay with Granny and Papa till we leave for our trip Saturday morning. I'll take Hot Rod and Pickle to see Madagascar Friday night. Should be fun.

    Just about everybody in my Oral Communications class at HCC has seen MADAGASCAR and say it's Great!
    I might have to go this weekend just for self-preservation to know what they are talking about at the next class discussion time.

    Mini-Uzz (aka Pickle) loves the MOVE IT MOVE IT scene...so much so that I had to get it for him and now he tortures me with it in the car. I thought it was hilarious! There are several little scenes that no kid will get, but most adults will!

    Turns out we could have used Cashin on the trip since the van decided that Luling, Texas was a good place to stop working.
