Consider it dropped. Curtis should show his true colors to everyone, not just via PM. Personally, I think he should have posted it directly under mine, if he felt so inclined to say what he said. I don't need his nonsense or his smart mouth. Have a good evening. I'll say no more.

Subject: butt out
The next time you get the feeling you shouldn't butt in, go with that feeling.
The above is a PM I received from Curtis. Apparently, he feels he is entitled to tell others where, when and what they should post, but he believes it doesn't apply to him. Sorry, I hate to make trouble, I really do, but I don't need aggravation like this. How childish. Sorry to trouble you all with this baby, high school stuff. You think after all we have all been through here, things like this would never happen. It's amazing, truly.

I know I shouldn't be butting in here, but come on, is this really something to get that upset about Curtis? With all of the pain and suffering that is happening to so many of our friends here and everything else in the world, this is trivial, petty nonsense. Your energy seems it would be better served in putting it towards something positive instead of pettiness like this.

Hello friends. Today I went in for my stereotactic breast biopsy. The procedure could not be performed due to the fact that the radiologist could no longer see the spot that he had seen on the mammograms. I was told that the equipment they use for the stereotactic biopsy is much more accurate in locating these things, so I am taking that as good news. I was told to come back in 6 months for another mammogram. Of course, I asked how about 3 months, but they insist on 6. So 6 month follow up it is. I am so very thankful for all of the prayers and support for all of you. I am here and am always praying and thinking of each and every one of you and following your ups and downs daily. Much love to all.

Fay, I am so angry I can't even see straight right now. I am the same way, I ask questions and want answers and I can see the annoyance in most all of the doctors I have ever come in contact with. You know what, too BAD!! I am sure my file says difficult patient too. Fay, I cannot believe that this has happened to you and that these doctors and this facility let you down. I will do ANYTHING I can to help you in this fight. I think you should go public, very very public and whatever you need me to do to help you, please do not hesitate to ask. I live across the country, I know, but I want to help you. This is outrageous and I am thoroughly disgusted! I am just furious as I know you are. Don't you give up, do not let them get you down! Let me know what I can do, please.

Thanks everyone. Yes, Connie, I was just trying to be safe by asking for a CT scan of the chest for the past 4 years, but I have had a cough for 2 months now and was getting concerned. I am a single Mom of a 4 year old. My daughter doesn't even know her father (his choice), so if something happens to me, she has no one. As far as the breat biopsy. They saw something on my mammo. that wasn't there last year and called me back for a spot compression. They still saw it and sent me for an ultrasound. Ultrasound didn't show anything, they couldn't see it. So radiologist said to come back in 6 months, but I asked to look at my Mammogram films and then insisted on the biopsy. I can't take any chances with all I have learned about cancer. I go on Thursday and cannot wait until it's all over with. I've been waiting for almost a month to get it done. Thank you all once again for your good wishes and wonderful support. It means alot.

Thank you so much everyone. Maryanne, I am sorry, I should have a profile, I have never gotten around to putting one up, but I, thankfully, do not have lung cancer. My father, however, was diagnosed in December of 2001 and passed away in March of 2004. I had been trying to get a doctor to order me a CT scan since 2001, but I could never get one to do it. Thank you again for all your prayers.

I just wanted to check in and let all of you dear friends know that my CT scan came back unremarkable, clear, clean! I am so happy and grateful to that dr. for finally letting me have some peace of mind about that. Now on to the breast biopsy this Thursday. Won't know the results of that until 10/4. Thank you so much for all of your prayers and good wishes. It means so much. Much love.

I was called "a bull in a china shop", my entire childhood. From one Klutz to another, be CAREFUL!! I'm so sorry you broke your toe and are now in pain. Enjoy the beautiful season. I don't get to enjoy Autumn any longer here in FLA, but when I find out all is clear with my scans, I might be taking a trip to NYC to visit friends and enjoy the foliage. Much love.

Thanks everyone. Bunny, I lived in NYC too for my entire life, up until 3 years ago. I lived on that Island with the Dump, so my concern is great. Also, although I never considered myself a smoker, I guess I was. I started around 12, you know the kid stuff once in a while and continued, socially, up until 5 years ago. I wasn't a heavy smoker, but I did smoke. I had in the past labeled myself as a non-smoker, but in actuality, I am a former smoker. If this makes any sense. This increases my fears, as my father was a non-smoker for the 25 years before his diagnosis. I also am fully aware that no one is exempt from LC, smokers and non-smokers alike. Thanks for your well wishes. Nothing can beat peace of mind, that's for sure.

Thank you all so much for your words of encouragement and prayers. It means so much. This is the most wonderful group of people I have ever "met". It is so very unfortunate that we all had to meet under these circumstances. Nonetheless, I am grateful for each and every one of you. Much love.

Bad drivers and crooked pictures.

Well, I went to see a pulmonologist today because I have had a cough for about 2 months. I had a pulmonary function test done last week, thankfully, all was normal. I have been wanting a CT scan of my chest since 2001 when my Dad was diagnosed with his lung cancer. My request was finally granted today. The pulmonologist saw how worried and how much anxiety it was causing me so he ordered the CT scan. Although, he did advise that if I were his sister sitting there, he would tell me not to have it done. He said sometimes people my age (41) will have a nodule (2mm) or so but it is no cause for concern but, if that is the case, I will have to have CT scan after CT scan, etc. etc. I told him I understand and wanted the test anyway. Then I told him I love him!! Finally! Also, he assured me that if he calls me on Monday and says he saw something, he wanted me to promise not to worry about it too much, that it was common. I guess he could tell I was on the verge of another panic attack. Also, I am going in on Thursday, September 29th for a breast biopsy. A density was seen on my mammogram this year in the right breast that wasn't there last year when the films were compared. The radiologist had me come in for a spot compression and he still saw something. Sent me for an ultrsound, but the ultrsound showed nothing. So the radiologist said to have me come back in 6 months for a repeat mammo. Well, I wasn't having any of that after what I learned with my father's cancer and I told him that I wanted a biopsy now, that I wasn't waiting 6 months. He told me there is no evidence that 6 months makes a difference. I had all to do but to laugh in his face. I just told him I know better. So he is doing a stereotactic biopsy next Thurs. Meanswhile, the breast that bothers me sometimes is the left one. Go figure. I would greatly appreciate any prayers that could be offered for me for clear test results on both the CT scan today and the biopsy next week. Thank you and love to all.

Fay,
You are so strong. I am so happy that you are home. Praying for you always.

Don't feel bad, Shellie. I'm jaded too. I don't wish on stars anymore either. I'll never let my 4 year old daughter know that though, why should she be robbed of her childhood magic, you know.

I remember my Dad telling me one day that when he dies to just throw everything away. He was referring to all his CT scans and reports that we were looking through that day. I still have them of course. I don't know what to do with them. Not only that, all of his clothes, shoes everything except what we buried him in is still in his closet and drawers in his bedroom. As time goes on, it gets harder to think about giving them all away. I guess I'll know when.

Gay,
What a beautiful post about your loving and sweet husband DeanCarl. He was/is a beautiful person/soul. I wish you peace and comfort as you continue on your journey without your beloved husband. I know he is resting in peace and pain free finally. Much love.

This is indeed very sad news and hard to swallow. My deepest sympathy to her family. Peace dear Beth.
