I have written this post 3 times and then decided not to share. Then I thought it might help someone else. I always have said I would share the good, bad and ugly. I am not sure when I made this statement, but my bet was during the A-Z blogging challenge. Some of those letters, would make Clint wince, more than he already does.
I haven't been feeling well, so I went to the Dr. Bottom line, I heard a sentence that shocked me. Then the next minute the writer in me, said, what an awful sentence. The only thing worse would be an AND in the middle instead of OR. When you have thyroid diseases, there are many symptoms, sinus issues, UTI's, carpal tunnel, etc. When this happens, I go to Dr. and get tested. I know I'm off, if more than one symptom is rearing it's ugly head. I go; the Dr. finally comes into the room, his words are: "It is either a kidney stone OR cancer." I'm in shock...it feels like someone shot me.
He checks me further. I ask on my way out, "do you think it is a kidney stone?"
He responds shaking his head and muttering "no".
I had cancer, back in July 2010. I was lucky it was caught in time. I had a surgical procedure, since then, no issues. I have to go back for more labs, I had to go to court, the next day. I get a Dr.'s note, but it is for sitting near an exit, not an excuse. I'm in pain; I don't want to go. The accident was reckless and no one else involved. I have a subpoena and have to attend. Time goes on. My family thinks I have ovarian cancer and there is a lot of crying and hugs.
I go back to Dr. to find out about my labs. I have a severe bladder infection! I still have to be tested further for cancer, at end of this month. The pharmacist is chatty and she tells me she had a really bad infection once. She had to give up this soda, she was drinking. I'm drinking the same stuff! I thank her, get my meds and go home. I call my Mom, hubby had gone with me to appointment. She said, "I didn't know you were drinking that. "Your brother was drinking that and had to give it up."
I stopped drinking soda, for 2 years. This Christmas was especially busy. My kids had a lot of cookie orders. I started drinking it again. So, just because someone throws scary words at you, don't fully except them, until more tests are done. My thyroid is off, too. I can imagine Clint asking me, "Do I feel lucky?"
"Yes, I do!"

I've survived many a health scare and am still here, so I can relate. So can Sherry.
Love and hugs,

What a crappy week that way. My dad says yesterday his brother had a massive stroke [passed last night] and then my father says he has cancer.
So, I hope you don't have it. Take care of yourself.
Love you,
Hugs and Prayers~
