    Dear Helen,

    I know that nothing can take away your anxiety completely, but I wanted to let you know that we all love you so much here and giving you all the support. Lets maintain the faith that in a few days this will be only a bad memory like many others in the past.

    A huge virtual bear hug is on your way.

    Been there, done that!

    Know just how you feel.  I hope you're able to get your mind of it at least part of the time, and that Tuesday comes fast.  :-)  Also, really hoping for good news.  Thinking of you, Traci

    Thanks, I loved that picture,

    Thanks, I loved that picture, I thought it was time for a change.  That was me sneaking my grandson a cookie when he was 2 and then getting caught with a picture.  lol  I thought the color run was more festive but it's too small.  I'll have to work on it this week.  

    I'm so anxious today that I can't even think straight.  This is a biggie.  I REALLY need this to be something stupid and easy like a cyst.

    Gracias senor.  I think after

    Gracias senor.  I think after tomorrow it will melt away and then I'll laugh at myself for worrying about nothing.  I hate lumps, I think they should be banned.  Funny because before cancer, I never concerned myself with lumps.  I'd just think oh I should go get this checked, no worries.
