This Week

Just a quick update. Well, an update to tell you that I'm not actually ready to give you an update. Sorry to be such a tease. As I mentioned, Monday I had my PET scan and biopsy. I took Tuesday off from work since I was tired and still feeling woozy. My legs kept giving out beneath me when I would try to stand. Wednesday was better. I went to work in the morning but by lunch my arm was throbbing too much to stay. I went and worked from home. It's not like I went home to not work. I went home so that when I needed 5-10 minute breaks from typing, I could just stare at my computer without feeling like I was a bad employee.

Then Thursday happened. The morning was going so well. I went to work. I had a meeting with this chick in Finance that went very well. There was a meeting from 10-12:30 about health that I decided to attend. About half way through the meeting, I got a call with the biopsy results. My entire world shattered. I was shaking. I went back to my desk and sat there staring off into space. Crying silent tears and shaking. I asked a co-worker to take me home. I do feel bad for my boss' boss. He came up to me at the exact wrong moment. He stepped up behind me and said "can I ask you a question". I said no. He asked if everything was alright and I said "absolutely not". I do feel bad for him.

So later, when I'm more calm about everything that happened from that moment onward, I'll post more details. I'm getting better and I have great friends and family around to support me and my husband during this difficult time. My husband is amazing. There is nothing less than amazing about him. Take my word for it.
