MORE BLESSINGS

Last week I had my usual yearly check up and the doctor said that there was a significant change in my breast, the one that got thrashed in a car accident seven years ago.  She informed me that the mammogram said that there was no cancer, but there was a large cyst.  After her exam she said that's NO CYST!, and made me go see a surgeon right away for a second opinion.  He said it needed to come out immediately.  I wasn't quite sure why all the fuss, because it seemed the same to me.  I didn't even get worried.

Just to play it safe I went to the hospital on Monday and they removed a solid mass about the size of a small egg, it wasn't cancer, just as I told them.  The surgeon said it was a lot of scar tissue from the damage it got in the car accident but had the kind of cells that can keep growing and can disfigure you much more.  I am a fast healer and went back to work on Thursday.  The Lord seems to watch out for us even when we are oblivious to something that can hurt us.

It's a good thing I wasn't gone longer from work . . . it was all waiting for me.  Three days of dirt and trash!!!  I am lucky to have a good job, so I won't complain.
