CodeBlue_R3 and to all that will read,
I saw this post/thread and had to reply. First and foremost let me say that I'm sorry to hear about your loss, and I'll pray about it. This past December I went to the doctor for my annual physical. Everything seemed to be going well throughout the exam so I wasn't worried. The doctor started doing my breast exam and I saw the expression on her face completely change to one that seemed quite concerned...then she said, "Uh-oh." I was thinking to myself, "Uh-oh???? WTF do you mean 'Uh-oh'???
" She told me that she'd found a lump in my left breast that she thought could be cancerous and I literally felt my heart stop. I had to hold back my tears as she explained more in depth. As she spoke, I was thinking..."I'm only 20! Barely 20! How could this happen to me? WTF???"
I was so scared that I told no one but my mom and I told her not to tell anyone as if it were a terrible secret. The only other person I've told is my boyfriend & my cousin.....and now all that will read this. Having the chance to get this off my chest (no pun intended) feels good...but now I have to face the music and go see the doctor again to see if my lump is cancerous. I'm scared as hell. Wish me luck, and whoever reads this can feel free to email me.
SF,
