"We can't rule out cancer" were the exact words I heard yesterday at my doctor's appointment.
Yes, it's definitely unexpected. I went into my OB/GYN and this time I didn't bring the little jockey as the last time was too memorable. Well, this trip was just as memorable as my doctor came into my room and said she just got back from vacation and just saw the results of my pap smear from two weeks ago. She apologized and said it was quite irregular and that the lab ran more tests from the sample and it ruled out a ton of diseases but it couldn't rule out cancer.
She said she'd like to do a biopsy immediately but would be happy to re-schedule if I wanted Ryan there. I told her there was no time like the present, so we went into the other room for the procedure.
It's hard to share what was going through my head. Cancer? And my mom just had this type of cancer earlier in the year...what were the odds?
Well, they took four samples of my cervix and the procedure was less than fun. Each time they took a mini-M&M size piece of my cervix it felt like a sharp cramp. I kept pinching my shoulders so I would concentrate on anything else than what was happening. Anyway, the doctor told me she'd have results in about a week so she'd call me then.
Ahhh...now the wait. This is the bad part as one wants to immediately know what the outcome is.
Anyway...came home to play with Eban and rock Jackson. Eban is mimicking now so I have to be careful of what words come from my mouth. Eban also loves to sing and as you can see from one of the pictures, he is belting out some random tune that he created...those are the best songs ever!
