Monday I sit at work, like a maniac...waiting for "the call." And waiting...and waiting ...and waiting. Lunch time passes...still no call. Ok, who knew four hours would feel like a lifetime?
At 1:00 I see that all too familiar 312 area code! YES! I said, "Hello?" The other end of the phone is a man's voice, "Hi, Flora... I have GOOD NEWS for you."
WAIT........did he say GOOD NEWS? He must have dialed the wrong telephone number. He must be talking to the wrong FLORA.
"OK, did you just say Good News? I haven't heard good news in more than two months!!" Dr. said, "The two newest sites we biopsied came back benign."
BENIGN! BENIGN! WHAT??? I sat there quiet for a moment...taking it in. Finally I said, "You said benign right?" He said, "Yes. Non-cancerous. It appears that you only have one tumor on the left that returned to be cancer. You need to call your surgeon and make an appointment for surgery."
WAHHH HOOOO! HOLY COW! Honestly the best news I have heard in MONTHS! OMG! You cannot imagine the smile that was on my face!
I called my surgeon's office and they told me to come in the next day for some pre-op testing. PRE-OP!! I am going to have surgery and have this DEMON removed....FINALLY!!!!
