Today my friend and my sister are undergoing breast cancer surgery. As I post this I know the outcome of my friend's surgery, but my sister has not began as of yet.
Barb (friend) is over; her ovaries are out, as well as the mass in her breast. They did not have to go in as deep as they once thought, due to the fact that the mass had risen to the surface. Also no lymphnodes were involved.
The only reason I am writing this from home and not the waiting room is, I FORGOT ABOUT ME.
In my zeal to be there for everyone and do all I can for those I love and care about, I forgot to take better care of me. I pinched a nerve on Sunday moving my lady up to a better position in her bed. Now my hip is out of whack and I am cheering from the sidelines.
So even though we care and want to do all we can for our loved ones that are dealing with this terrible illness; remember take a little time for yourself, so you won't get benched like I did. So you won't feel like you let them down because you can not be physically there. Even though my thoughts and prayers are there, it is just not the same. I guess there are some wild horses out there that could keep me away. LOL
