Today I was subbing at the elementary school with Mrs.
Davis’ 6th grade class. During my lunch break, the doctor, my surgeon, called me back with my results of the surgical biopsy they performed
on my the lump on my left shoulder/neck area. I was stunned as he explained to
me that the lump was an actual tumor. It was not benign and it has come from
somewhere else in my body. He was ordering immediate CT scans to be done on my
head, neck, chest, abdomen, and pelvis. He also ordered a mammogram. I was told
to be at the hospital tomorrow morning at 8am to begin the scans. Then he told
me to come back to the office on Thursday at 9:30am to meet with the doctor to
go over the test results.
I called Lincoln and shared the stunning news with him. He
said he would leave work early and meet me at home. My mind was in a daze as I
tried to prepare sub plans for the next 2 days at school and try to figure out
what all this meant. I was scared, but didn’t allow myself to dwell on the unknown.
It could be anything. I just need to wait and see.
