Well, there is still 20 minutes left of the day so I should knock on wood, but nothing happened here today, in fact had a "date" with my DH and now am cozy in bed...

My Friday the 13th was very lucky! I had to go in for a biopsy on my stomach and esophagus to check for cancer. I was terrified becuase the last time I had this test done the doctor found a few precancerous cells (Barrett's Esophagus). Since my dad died of esophagus cancer, this test was terrifying on so many levels. But the doctor told me that not only did my condition not get worse, but he thinks the precancer cells are gone. So Friday the 13th was one terrific day for me!

Thank you Missy. I'm terribly sorry to hear that you lost to relatives two that horrible disease. Cancer is such an awful thing. I am so relieved thate I came out ok there are just no words to express it! I'm sure you know that esophagus cancer is NOT an easy cancer to cure and that even when it is caught early, the surgery and treatments are just brutal. I lost my dad when I was only 19 years old. He was such a wonderful human being and watching him suffer like that was the hardest thing I've ever gone through. So when I found out that I was a higher risk, the fear that came over me was indescribable. I'm just so glad it's over now. I hope every Friday the 13th is as lucky as this one!
