Not a good day today at all. I was in the MRI room for about three hours, almost all of it with a narrow vertical bar against my sternum. The biopsy was painful even after the first shot of numbing medicine, so I had to have another shot. My shoulders hurt like the Dickens because you cannot MOVE at all except to breathe. I was crying at the end because of the sternum pressure. I will find out the results on Thursday.

How ungracious can I be??? I really appreciate your thoughts and prayers. I can only imagine what it would have been like otherwise!!!

oh dear, you are a tough one, but even the tough cry from time to time, nothing at all ungracious about that. (just honest)
I wish I could come over and sit with you , I have big shoulders to cry on.
It is going to be a hard run for you, just know that we are here all the time and will support you in anyway we can.

I am so upset to hear that you were in so much pain. I don't know what to say to that except I am terribly sorry and I am so glad that it is over with for you. Hopefully you never have to experience something like that ever again. I have been praying for you and I will continue to do so. I hope you get good results on Thursday because you truly deserve them after all that you have gone through. If you want I can link you to the St. Rita Novena prayer again, because every time I have said it, I received good news. On that note, I am going to say it for you as soon as I post! Feel better!!

Watching my Bruins game tonight, between periods now so I thought it would be an ideal time to say:

Good night!
Bonne huit!
Buenas noches!
Buona notte!
Gute nacht!
Oiche mhaith!
God natt!
Nos da!

Ugh ... that's an awfully long time to have that kind of pressure on you---literally and figuratively. I'm glad that ordeal is behind you. Try to relax and recoup. You've certainly earned it.

Hope you are all having a great day!!

I received my test grade in Statistics and my score was an 88% which is a B+! I am pretty happy about that since I am not much of a math person. He said the class average was a 63% so I am glad I did well.

Way to go!!

Tomorrow is my mom's throat surgery, my dad got off of work so he can take her. I'm assuming she'll have to be there early in the morning and the surgeon said he isn't going to let her go home until 5 PM so that he can make sure she is doing okay. The only way I think she'd have to stay is if they found cancer or if there was some kind of complication. I am definitely praying that it is not cancer so she can finally have some peace after this surgery is over!

Thinking of your Mom, Jennifer! Sending prayers, too. Hope all goes well tomorrow.

Good afternoon,just getting home and it looks like we are having chicken wings and salad tonight for dinner. Our neighbor julie was over most of the day and I think is coming back for dinner which is good,she is really nice. We met her when her dog last summer got out and went missing(same dog that was hit this morning and died) but last summer we found the dog while she was at work and she was impressed and greatful that we kept it at our house until she came home that she was been really nice to us ever since..we thought it was what anyone would do though...she is in her late 40's and her husband died last year like on jan8th but was in the hospital ICU coma over the holidays,he had cancer so she has had a rough year. I think you need to have at least one good neighbor friend,or at the very least speaking terms with them.lol my 1st wife was very wierd about neihbors...she did not want to encourag me to even be nice to them.lol but anyways I hope Julie gets better soon and thanks again everyone who has said prayers....
Jennifer91-will say prayers for you and your family tomorrow for your mom.
Seawaters-been thinking about you al day and praying for you as well!

Have a great evening everyone!

hi not sure if i could live not knowing my neigbours.. maybe it depends where you live..over where i live we know each other all of then there dogs names there kids there mums where they work everything lol

I agree! So wonderful to have neighbors you can count on.
That has only happened twice out here, and we're going on 10 years in Vegas. One time being now, thank God. It was a constant back in the Midwest... Another reason why I miss it there so!!

Good evening, friends!!

Just wanted to stop in & say hello! It was a busy Tuesday, had an appointment after work, and got home too late to eat dinner. So, just going to have a light snack, catch up with the hubby & Har, throw some clothes in the dryer, and call it an early night. I'm tired!

Thinking of you all.

Be safe & enjoy the rest of your evening~

Sweet dreams, everyone!

Stacey:grin:

Joining in the wish for sweet dreams...peace to all!

jennifer91 · Jan 31, 2012

I am off to bed. I am going to get up early tomorrow morning and wish my mom good luck with the surgery. I think her surgery is at 8 AM, so at least I'll know how she is relatively soon - hopefully by afternoon.

Thank you all for thinking of her and keeping her in your prayers.

Hugs to everyone. I wish everyone a good night's sleep and sweet dreams. May anyone who is under the weather feel better and the rest of us stay healthy.

Good night!!!

Seawaters · Jan 31, 2012

It really was a lot of pressure!!! Chardonnay helps, but I won't be doing that too long. My chest and right boob HURT!!! Sorry for whining! I know it WILL get better!
