Hi girls! I actually did go through with the removal of the rib bone. I've been very sore, so haven't gotten on the computer until today. Got the results, it was BENIGN. Thank God, and thank you all for your support, prayers, well wishes, and happy thoughts. Now I will deal with the 'survivor guilt' that I feel when I think of those of you whose results were not like mine. God bless you all ... and much love, angie

I just don't think we can help feeling guilty but we sure can do things to lesson it. I spend time here and I also am finding other ways to be there for others. One of the most recent things I have done is take a cancer friend to chemo, since I never had to go by myself, it is difficult for me knowing that others must and don't have anyone to distract their mind from thinking only of that moment. Guess that is why I spend so much time here want to be in chat if there is ever a person who needs to talk.
Once agian I am so glad to hear of your good fortune. One less thing to worry about, that is always a step in the right direction.
Be good to yourself always,

Hi Angie...so glad you're getting up and around again, and EXTREMELY glad it was benign! Talk about a weight off your shoulders! I, too, have the survivor's guilt thing, because I got off so easy compared to so many of our sisters here. I pray for everyone everyday. Take care & God bless! Cyndi
