Life can turn on a dime
 
Life can turn on a dime.
Last week I found a shiny new dime. My father died the next day.

I finally got to a Gastroenterologist (sp) yesterday after months of belly area pain. Looks like I'm headed for the hospital soon. Something is wrong between the liver and the gall bladder, possibly a clogged bile duct. And possibly with cancer cells.

His very mention of the words cancer and metastatic threw me for a loop. It was the first feeling of fear in a long while. This doc is young, smart, caring, but needs just a WEE bit more bedside manner. Or I need to be a LOT tougher.

At any rate, surgery is around the corner.

I'll keep you posted,

Love and light,

Lisa

Dear Lisa,

I wish you didn't have this to face so soon after losing your dad. Sometimes the curves come up a little fast and sharp, eh? I'll be keeping you and Mel in my thoughts and prayers.

Lisa,

Just out of curiosity, how does he know that it is the bile duct that is clogged? Did you have some scans?

You will be in my thoughts and prayers.
