Calling It Quits!?

 My breast cancer investigation is complete. Earlier on today I traveled to Glasgow for an excisional biopsy.  It was the lengthiest and nippiest one of the previous four but I was lucky in such that the needed sample came out beautifully first time. I'm feeling really sore now and have been warned that I'll probably be swollen and bruised for a bit, which doesn't really bother me as I'm a regular Humpty Dumpty anyhow!

 All I have to do now is wait on the results to see if the suspicious mass is cancer and what, if any, treatment will entail. But hey-hoe!  I'm off soon to visit my daughter in London to spend some girlie and sightseeing time. If bad news does wing it's way to me then she's the one I'd be crying out for.  Her strength floors me at times.

The guys have been really supportive and let me flibbertigibbet on and on through the tetchy times. I really don't think they believe me as to how uncomfortably squished you need to be for mammograms ect.  Maybe a screening of something similar for them would get you that  cup of tea with extra milk now!

I hope the results are good. Will keep you in prayer and send positive thoughts your way.

BTW, the mammogram machine was obviously invented by a man! I'd like to see him put his whatever-he-calls-it in there!

Good luck with that. I hope they don't keep you waiting too long for the results. I like the idea of a manogram :)
