I never would have thought that helping my good friend with her advocacy on breast cancer, would come in handy for me. I went to the doctor's office two weeks ago for my yearly check up, and that is when I got the shock of my life. She told me she felt two little lumps, so she scheduled me for a mammogram and sonogram;when the results came back I had to receive a core biopsy that really was not good. The pain from just being numbed up for this procedure was very, very painful and the discomfort level was not great either. Having been living on pins and needles for about a week; received my test results today and found out that I have papalloma cells that could become cancerous, so I have an appointment to see a surgeon for consultation in getting a surgical biopsy done. I see them on June the 6th, to discuss my options before I do anything.
I love my family and I love myself, and have come to the conclusion that I will do what is necessary to live to see my grandson graduate high school and get married if it is the lords will. I will read all the literature that I can find and research the odds on me beating this disease. I am really thankful that they caught the cells early, so that I can have more family functions with my crazy and loving family. And to all of my family and friends, please I know better then anyone how painful and disheartening finding something out like this can be, but go get your yearly mammograms and do what is necessary for your health and body. Love everyone that has been in my corner and supported me through this, but my god ids giving me the strength to endure what is down the road for me.
And now I will go to Orlando and compete for the crown, and be the most happiest beauty queen that ever lived.
