Update on Doctors Appointment.

It has been a crazy week. I had to prepare a lesson and I had two doctors appointments. I went on Tuesday to see Dr. Ken the natural path. He was very concerned when I came in and he felt my lump. He put me on about 5 different medicines and anything other than that I don't remember. The kids were so bad at the appointment I had a hard time focusing. He asked me to come back in as soon as I could for a thermo imagining. So I went back in Thursday morning without the kids and Ryan went in with me. The tech was telling us a little bit about the thermo imaging and what to look at. So she said that when they take the pictures they should look identical. While Ryan could tell right away they didn't. The one boob was blue and greens the other boob was red and orange. The red is blood. I said well it could just be a cyst. She said probable not because cyst or liquid filled and would be blues and greens too. She said cancer is greedy and that it wants your blood. We could see in my throat the blood being pulled into my boob. She said not to get excited to could be something else. She didn't say what but not to get to excited. They sent the pictures away to be looked at. They said it would be 3 days or so before I would hear back. The doctors called me back and talked to Ryan and I. He recommended seeing a surgeon and having it removed. He never came out and said cancer. He would just say free radicals. I think it is because he is a natural path and cant diagnose. So I called and scheduled an appointment to see a doctor for the first of October. Then I talked to mom and she thinks I need to try and get on insurance. So I filled out the paper work and if I clear I should have insurance on the 15th. At the same time the lump is growing quickly and bruising now and you can now see the boob starting to become misshaped. So I am having a hard time deciding to wait or just move forward. I have a doctors appointment with Dr. Ken on Tues hopefully for the results of the test and also for an emotional visit. So needless to say it was very hard to concentrate on my lesson and focus. I am finding it hard to go 2 minutes with out thinking about it. I will try to keep you updated. It is just hard to talk or write about it. I am still in shock and over whelmed and I don't know. I am doing fine. I am keeping busy with the kidses schedules and activities.

Cole passed off a few Scouting things this week. He carved a bear out of soap. He did a great job it was cute. He also typed some letters and wrote some thank you notes. He played the goal on Saturday and love it. Will see if they let him do it again.

Kamden is keeping busy her and Carter are best buddies but they also fight like best buds. I wish we could get them to get along better. It is so cute when they are playing well together.

We got are Halloween decoration put up on Friday. The kids were already asking and so I didn't want to hear about it for the next few weeks so we put them up.

We had Kim, Karra, Alexis and dad over for dinner tonight. It was nice to have them over but wired at the same time that mom wasn't there. We had a good time we played farkle. DAD WON!!!!

(My opinion) get into the doctors right away. Your life is a gift to your children. They don't care about debt, they care about you. I'm sure the community will help with the rest. There are all kind of funraisers that can raise money for you, just get in ASAP.

ditto to chauntesl great advice. It's hard hearing something is wrong and it is so much easier to ignore it. b
