Request

Hey my blogland family and friends…this is a bit different than my usual posts.  In the past, I have come asking for prayers, healing energy and positive thoughts for different members of our community. 

Now I need to ask if you could send some prayers, healing energy, and positive thoughts my way. 


prayers


My doctor prefers I go in for my blood work and mammogram so that he has the results before I come in for my yearly physical.  I visited the vampires Friday morning and then went on over to visit the boob smashers.  Received a phone call that they have discovered nodules in both breasts and want me to come in for an MRI. 

Insurance requires that my doctor has to send the request…so am waiting for that request to go in and then for them to schedule when I will go in for the test. 

I didn’t want to burden anyone with this, especially since I don’t know when I am going in for testing, but was informed by Minelle that I was “robbing others of caring” and that I needed to “let people care and offer words of comfort and encouragement.”  So…

I had my one day of pity party…not rich enough to afford more…and I truly believe these are benign nodules but I would appreciate any prayers, healing energy, positive thoughts, hugs, blessings…whatever you care to share…my way.  Thank you.


I am a strong person

I promise to be back with some giggles on my next post.

  2. See my extended hand, hang on tight...we are all with you. Lots of prayers, good thoughts, and double the number of hugs. This happens fairly often.....most times, it really is not a big deal......this waiting and not knowing is the worse part.

  4. Cat,

    My thoughts and prayers are with you. If I can help you in any way, please feel free to let me know.

    Hugs,
    Dana

    P.S.-Since you're always bringing laughter to us, I thought I'd return the favor.

    A fiftyish woman was at home happily jumping on her bed and squealing with delight. Her husband watches her for a while and asks, "Do you have any idea how ridiculous you look? What's the matter with you?" The woman continues to bounce on the bed and says, "I don't care. I just came from having a mammogram and the doctor says I have the breasts of an 18 year-old." The husband said, "What did he say about your 56 year old ass?" "Your name never came up," she replied.

  7. It's good Cat to pause a moment in life and digest what your body is doing to you. It's good to get strength from the knowledge that docters have become very skilled in this. It's good that you know people who went trough this before.

    So why doesn't it help, and why do you feel so scared all the time? Strength you've already got, so the is no point in wishing you that. But I wish the results of the test come soon, so you know what you are up against. I wish you the energy to heal. I wish you humor to deal with things only humor is of help.


    And I want you to take care of yourself, just like you take care of others. I will be thinking of you and trust you will get better soon. No giggles if you don't feel like giggling, do you hear! Get well soon.

    Warmly,

    Han

  9. I am sending positive thoughts Cat.
    I have just been all through exactly this myself and got called back twice, but with a happy outcome in the end. The waiting is the worst bit, It's hard to stay positive throughout, but knowing that you have people with you, if not in person than in thought and prayer does help.
    Keep strong, we are with you.

    Sending lots of love, positive thoughts and prayers your way. Am thinking of you.

    Easier said than done I know but just breathe. A friend of mine went through the same thing just recently and it was calcium deposits.

  17. Oh Cat! I am so sorry that you are having to go through this! I am sending a multitude of hugs and positive thoughts your way. I am also glad that Minelle encouraged you to let us know. It really does help to have people to chat with or encourage you through/be there.

    I went through this kind of thing just a handful of years ago- MRI's and Ultrasounds, ending in one of the more invasive biopsies and the planting of a marker. After all the stress it ended up to be just fine. But it IS scary. The waiting is truly the toughest thing of all. Try to remember that we WANT these things followed up in the best possible way, and that most people go through this experience and it is usually nothing. That is COMPLETELY hard to do when you are going through it, I know, but it is true. I understand. You know how to find me, or I will find you. I'm holding your hand in spirit and we are all here to help you through. BUG HUGS and love,

    <3 Cousin Katie

  23. Cat, trust your gut on this, you think they are benign nodules and most likely you are right. The odds are certainly on your side. I understand the fear you must be feeling. All this waiting gives you too much time to imagine worst case scenarios. Try not to dwell on it so much. Much easier said than done I know. Of course, you are one of the strongest women I know.

    As far as prayers and good thoughts go, you have an abundance coming your way! I'm so looking forward to your update post so we can all celebrate your good news!

    Hugs, prayers and love,
