Day 206
My 2 weeks of medical vacation are drawing to a close. This morning I made all the appointments that needed making and so by August 5th I’ll know if all the cancer is gone. I think I put off this round of appointments as much because I’m terrified of the results as I was in need of a break.
I have to have an MRI this week and then a follow up appointment with my neurosurgeon. I know I’ve told you that it’s the not knowing that’s so frightening but this time it’s the knowing that’s working my anxiety. Even though I know it doesn’t take long and that I’m not allergic to the die and that it doesn’t hurt, etc., etc. I find myself anxious about this MRI. I may break down and take the Xanax that I didn’t take when the doctor prescribed for the first MRI. We’ll see. I say it all the time and then decide I don’t want to take the pill.
I know there are so many so much worse off than me and that there are plenty who need prayers but if you could spare some for me over the next two weeks I’d very much appreciate them. Thank you for stopping by every day, I love you all
With much love and great affection,

Take the Xanax! LOL Over many years I’ve had just about every test imaginable out there and thank goodness last year my dr. gave me some Xanax to get through on the death of my mom. I now take them before tests and appointments that I’m really anxious about. It really does help! Keep me updated K? Big Honkin’ Hugs!
Thanks Jeannie! I appreciate all of your wonderful support. How are you holding up? How goes your treatments?
You’ve got it. Love you girlie.
((((huggies))) Thanks SC! :-) :-) :-)
Don’t talk yourself out of taking the Xanax. If it will provide you with a few anxiety free hours why not? As for prayers I’ll be sending up a few extra for you during the next 2 weeks.
Thanks Jersey! All prayers are greatly appreciated.
Take the Xanax! You are on the way now and will do fine! I am thinking and praying for you. BTW a co woker is yet another to add to the list of makeovers, I found out today. On a roll, baby, as are you! God Bless you.
Thanks Suze! (((huggies))) You’ve started a movement. You should write Locks of Love a letter telling your story.
I am thinking of telling them about my Locks of Love Story and decision and about the decisions of the others to contribute. Each story is great! Courtney has a great style btw! I think ppl saw that if I could do it, they could too. God Bless!
You should Suze.
