I was hoping that I could be in some of your thoughts today and maybe ya'll could throw a few prayers my way.

I've told few about this, but I now feel like I need more support and of course...this is where I want to get it from...you...MY BEST FRIENDS!

Anyhow, a while back I found a 'lump' in my left breast. I went to a regular doc and had it checked and they referred me to "The Breast Care Clinic" which is where I'm going today for an exam, mammogram and ultra-sound to follow.

I've had 'caffeine' lumps before as well as cysts in the same area. I've also dealt with MANY tumors (all benign) and a lot more cysts elsewhere, which had to be removed.

But, this time...I'M SCARED! It's NOT like the 'others'. This one is different! It feels exactly like a friend of mine that had breast cancer a few years back. My sister-in-law also had breast cancer a couple of years ago and is in remission now...she felt it a few days after I found it and she's the one that made me go to an 'on-call' doctor over the weekend that followed the day I found it.

So, I know this isn't going to be good and was just wondering if I could get your thoughts, prayers or whatever you're willing to take away from your day to throw my way. I could use it! If I have to come home and tell my family I have breast cancer or even MIGHT have a problem...it's going to kill me. I just don't know how I'll take any more....and what about them?

Thanks soo much for reading this...I'm hoping for a pain free day for all of us.

I've already prayed for you today, but I wlll gladly take the time to take this special request before the Lord. I know you are afraid, but please remember you are not alone, you are taking all of us with you today---please let us know how it turns out.

I am so sorry to hear about the lump. I have had one removed before, but it soundz like you have been on this road for a while Just remember, when you feel like you can't take anymore that is when Jesus carries us. He is carrying you, and I hope He waltzes you right through this, love.I believe when we go through these "tests" that God is refining us. He simply wants everyone in the situation to lean and learn. I hope that this has given you some peace and understanding if not only a reminder. You are in my prayers and I have faith that you and yours will come through this and that we are here for you through this cumbersome time. I'll keep my fingers crossed and my eyes peeled for your post. love ya lots, Jody

Love Maggie

You are a very strong person and even "if" there is something more to this lump. You WILL make it through! Like I said- you are a very strong person.

Good luck. And be sure to let us know one way or another how things turn out. We're here for ya!

You are in my thoughts and prayers. I know this is very difficult but try to keep as ositive as possible. we will be here for you no matter what.
