to the hospital

in about 20 minutes I'll be whisked away to a hospital in the city to have the lump removed from my left breast.

Put my daughter to bed at 10:00 last night and at 1:30am I was in her room stroking her head and calming her fears still. It's my job, I'm the mom and being strong is what I do for my child. She knows about my fears; and we choose to be strong together.

My hemoglobin is apparently very worrisome for the lab and I need to see a specialist for it today before surgery and I've been warned that I may well bruise severely due to my hemoglobin count being so low. Bruising is nothing though, I just want this god damn lump out of me!


I guess it's time...
