Geez, is it going around or something?

My mom called me today. She has a lump on her neck; it's been there for three months, and the doctor found it today. It's about "one point something centimeters," to quote her, and hurts her a bit. She goes in for a CT scan on Friday, and she said something about a biopsy, but also mentioned that the doctor thinks it's probably benign.

She's worried - which is understandable, even if she IS a world-class hypochondriac - but right now, it's more the waiting for her. I'm not going to freak out, no worries. But if you pray, please ask that her own worries remain low. If she's panicked, she'll only focus more on all her other aches and pains, and everything will be magnified ten thousand percent.

Will be thinking of both of you and keeping you in my prayers. Hopefully, it'll be benign. My Mum had a lump in her breast a few years ago and it turned out ot be nothing serious. *huggles*

I will be thinking of you all. I know it's easy to say, but really try not to worry too much - more often than not it turns out to be nothing. Hope all goes well.

Thanks, babe. I'm not really too worried right now, I just hope SHE'S staying calm.
