her re-locating to Iowa...thats funny in its self...naaa just kidding..
I think by all means meet her, but why go so far ahead of yourselves and plan a move. Dont worry about that until you have met her for the first time, I think your moving a lil fast..but thats just me...take it a little slower...somethings are just worth the wait...
I had cried alot the days after i talked to you and before the actual surgery. I kept tellin myself its "only" skin cancer, the spot isnt that big, I caught it on time...but it didnt really help much, not when I have 3 kids to raise alone and need to make sure there ok. And watching them worry was hard. I tried not to tell them much in the begining, but the last couple days I talked with my older ones.
Plus inbetween the surgeries was when we were moving, at least it kept my mind busy.
thanks for all your talks riya and your prayers, I couldnt of asked for any more from a friend.
Yeah I waited way to long, knowing I should be going and it was the fear that it would be something serious. My waiting didnt change the outcome, just made it a bigger cut..
Yes it is a very serious ordeal...I used to be "one" of those who would of probably laughed, cuz i did when my mom would tell me i forget the sunscreen...Skin cancer is for sure nothing to mess with and am glad I got a second chance...am sure im on my 4th or 5th chance by now, so i better shape up..
hi kurzita...I always knew the sun could cause damage, but i never thought it serious enough and that it wouldnt happen to me... lessons learned..but its good im ok.
and now, didnt really think about "bed" being the short for blue eyed blonde...haha.. funny eh?!
Im not sure...I just know I used to tan alot, but I honestly dont know much about it. And I didnt do any research on it, as I was scared enough without adding anything more to my "logics"
I really wasn't gonna post about this, but I decided maybe it could be a benefit to someone out there.
About a month ago, I finally went to my doctor about a funny looking mole I had on my thigh. He removed it and sent it to a pathologist who confirmed it was malignant melanoma...grrrr!
Last Wed., I had surgery to take out extra tissue to make sure they got all the cancer out. I got the news Friday that there was no cancer cells in the tissue they removed..so I'm blessed. They took out a section 2 inches by 7.5 inches, and went 2 inches deep. It hurts and I'm not always in the best of moods, but again am thankful that they got it all.
Not sure why I got it...if it was from all the years of tanning and fake baking or if it was just a fluke. For whatever reason, I got it and it was a very scary situation.
Just in case any of you think sometime just isn't right about yourself or if you think a harmless "mole" isn't a big deal...learn from me, I waited a year before I went to the doctor...be smarter then me and get things checked out sooner...
My best to you all...
and to those of you who knew about my situation, thanks so much for all the prayers and positive thoughts that you sent my way...I'm very blessed..
