    You got 'em

    Good vibes and prayers, that is. 

    Maybe you can also do something good that you enjoy tomorrow? Dinner out somewhere great, buy yourself some new stylish comfy shoes, go to a movie, etc? Basically, take yourself on a "date" to celebrate being alive and being you.

    Partial results

    Hi Everyone, thank you for your care and concern, means a lot. I had the ultrasound and then they had to do another look at my right kidney with the radiologist in the room...there is a small less than 1cm spot. The radiologist said it is nothing to worry about, a fluid filled cyst. Of course I am a Master Worrier so that advice didn't help me. I emailed my doctor that did the surgery and he responded quickly. He also isn't concerned about the tiny cyst and said there is a very low chance that it will become cancerous. He also reassured me that they will be tracking it and watching it, so that is good. I have my actual appointment later this month. I really hope Hubert the evil mass doesn't have any offspring...Thanks again.

    Thanks JerzyGrrl

    I did buy myself some flowers after the ultrasound and xray. A little bit of spring and beauty in the house!
