Last few days

On Wednesday I went into Concord hospital for a microdechtomy (sp?) which basically is removal of some breast tissue for which to do a biopsy. Ive had some discharge for a few months and had an ultrasound a few months back, but then it was bloody, so had another ultrasound and mamogram, and the specialist then said they should remove the tissue to find out if it was cancerous or not. Great. This is really common apparently, and 90% of these things are fine. So its me being in the 10% that obviously worries me.

I wont find out til Tuesday what the results are, but intuaitively I feel okay. And even if it is cancer, well, it's very very early so thats gotta be a good thing.

I'm not very sore from the op; in fact my hand where they had the needle is sorer. I reacted a bit to the morphine, and was a bit sick and nauseated but apart from that Im okay. I slept most of the time, and even when John got me home, I slept from 6pm until 6 the next morning.

The kids have said I seem happier which is quite bizzare. Maybe sub concoiously i've taken it as a new lease on life?
