I don't even know where to start. My mom had her yearly mammo last week. She told me she got a call and it was all clear. I believed her. It turns out that she and middle sister had decided to keep the truth from me. They did find a spot and she went back today for more testing and they are going to do a biopsy. The radiologist said that there is a 65% chance that is cancer. I only found out today because my mother couldn't hold it together anymore. They thought me were doing me a favor with all the bad news I've gotten lately. I've gotten over being mad, but now I'm so upset. My mom made me promise that I wouldn't tell anyone (our church and friends) until we know all the details and if it is inded cancer. I turn to my DIS friends since I know how wonderful you all are and plus you don't know my mom and won't be calling her, worrying her more -
! My treatment yesterday has caused me to be in a great deal of pain and I've taken my meds more than usual which has made me sleep most of the day. I feel like that's my defense mechanism too. I'm a total basket case and not any good to anyone. I can't talk or even type this without crying so hard I can't be understood. I've not been angry once with my cancer, but I"m feeling angry and upset right now. My mom is the glue to this family and I can't imagine her not being able to "work everything out". My middle sister who lives in the lower part of the state will be staying here until all is decided on diagnosis and treatment. I still have hope and am praying almost constantly that is a huge scare and all things will work out. I've ran over every scenerio about it being ok to the very worse. I'm going to stop, I feel the potential to ramble on here. Just pray. Pray that this is not cancer, pray that we will have the strength to get through it, pray that I will be able to get myself together. Just don't stop praying.
