Hi there. Everyone here is so special. I am SO GRATEFUL for finding this site and can't imagine being without it and without you all. Thank you for all of your help and encouraging words. I felt like I had fallen and a hundred angels came and picked me up.
I took yesterday to "recover" and get my mind back in order. My onc. nurse called and said they have all of the written reports and she just wanted to tell me that they really think that I had "nicked" a rib somehow, and that he really thinks I'm ok and not to worry. They will rescan it in a couple of months and don't expect to see a thing.
I'm going to take that and "run with it"- literally :-) Only problem- no rain today but it's FREEZING. Somehow I don't picture that being as uplifting....:-)
Love, Kelly
