I have a MRI scheduled for next Wednesday now.\u00a0 Things are coming together.\u00a0 It will be done bilaterally because the doctor wants to make sure nothing is going on in the left breast as well since I have very dense breast tissue, she wants to make sure nothing is missed there as well.\u00a0 The procedure will show what the extent of the right breast is.\u00a0 I, of course, am very claustrophobic in small spaces, so I have to be medicated.\u00a0 I don’t know why, but it is what it is.\u00a0 Just one of those mysteries of life I guess.<\/p>\n
I have selected a Oncologist, so all the information will be sent to them, and then they will call me to make an appointment with them.\u00a0 I have an appointment on Thursday, the very next day of the MRI with a plastic surgeon, so I am just so busy, busy with appointments.\u00a0 It would be more fun if the appointments were for a massage, or a lunch date or something on that line, but nope.\u00a0 All medical hoopla.\u00a0 Although I did go to lunch today with a friend to celebrate a late birthday with her (her birthday), and it was a very special time.<\/p>\n
I am still maintaining my pet business service in the midst of all this, so it feels like I am juggling my time with work with dogs, birds, time with the Lord, friends, family and appointments.\u00a0 Must try to maintain some kind of normal routine even with such a diagnosis.<\/p>\n
Today I have peace in my mind and spirit, so I am thankful for that.\u00a0 I feel the prayers of all my friends and family, and feel like the Lord is really walking me through this.\u00a0 I do have my moments where I feel anxiety, or stress headache, and even grief, but that is pretty normal and I cling to my Lord to not stay in those places for very long.\u00a0 I have been reading the word in bits through out the day when I sit down for a moment and to also focus on the Lord whether I praying or just sitting in His presence.\u00a0 Christ is sustaining me through this and I do not want to let that go or be robbed of His peace.\u00a0 This is a hard and odd place to be, but I know without a doubt, that God will never abandon me.<\/p>\n
