I will not let the "C" word ruin my life.....

[cutemary007]

About a week ago  I got a phone call from the doctor. It was one of those calls that we all dread. Test results came back on my last exam showed abnormal changes and progression in my cells. Scary enough where my family physician referred me to the Sparrow cancer treatment center to work with a specialist. I asked her "Do I have cancer" Her pause was enough to scare me.

She hesitated and replied, "I don't know" We just need to get you to the right people to work with this sort of thing and take "agressive" action.

So that's where I am now. Waiting for the next few weeks until my appt with the oncologist at Sparrow.

Ive done the crying and thinking the worst...and now I'm over it. I refuse to sit here everyday and feel sorry for myself. I will just have to wait til I hear the news. I will not let this thing destroy me. Yes, I'm upset...yes I'm scared. But even if I do have cancer.....I will not sit here and cry myself to the last days of my life.

I'm a fighter...and that's what I have to try and remember. So I will keep you all posted of the news....but please keep me in your thoughts and send on your good vibes and inspriation! I need it!!!

Even though I've "known" you for a short time, I do know that you're one of the strongest women I've ever met.  You'll get through this tough time and come out on the other end even stronger.  I will keep you in my thoughts and prayers.  Keep us posted.  We're all pulling for you!
