I talked to her this morning.....she called the hospital and they told her.......the Dr. and the Radiologist saw something in the left breast that looks suspicious..............this hospital only does retakes on Mon. and Fri.......she is leaving for Chicago Thursday afternoon to go see her sons, and won't be back till Tuesday...............so she made it for Tuesday...........I told her to ask them to send her to DCMH (where I went)..........they are all part of the Keystone Health System here, but she said no.................I suggested calling my BC surgeon and seeing what he would say, and to have the redo at the breast center which is DCMH, and she also said no..........so I can't do more then that...........she said it can wait till tuesday...................I never heard of a hospital only doing retakes 2 days a week........that is insane..............but not there fault she is going away......

duckyb1

Thanks for all the hugs, and prayers.........will let you all know how this goes.............she did say, that she told them I had BC, so they could be being extra careful with this questionable spot.

ducky my friend♥

the reason they do the retakes twice a week because it will be diognastic and the Dr has to be there to read it right away to see if US or anything else is needed.

I go through the same thing because i don't want to leave the center without my results.......they do that Wednesday and Friday or early in the morning..........

We can't tell our kids what to do...i know you are worried so is she......

Thinking good thoughts for a B9 result

Love & Hugs♥

In the Regional cancer Center where I go (refuse to give the word cancer an upper case privledge).....they have a Dr. right there all day, 5 days a week to read the results along with the Radiologist..............if those 2 don't agree, they bring in a third party to look at it.........they have to get 2 exact opinions, and diagnosis before they will call a mammogram "ok"...............but then again, that is a cancer Center.........everything is right there from the first mammogram, till your last treatment, when and if they do anything................Onc's, Rads, Chemo, Labs, BC surgeons, it is a complete BC Center........................I asked her this time to go there instead of where she went.................the hospital she did go to is part of the group of hospitals, but it is not a "cancer Center", but again..................her choice..............I don't know how the hell she is going to enjoy herself in Chicago with this shit hanging over her head...............at least had she gone to the BC Center today she would have known immediately...............again........her choice........no talking to that girl........God forbid, she should listen to me........................

My Dad passed away this morning at 6:10.  He went peacefully and comfortably. My heart is broken.

Makratz

My heart is broken for you.  I'm so sorry Deb.  I am glad that Rebekkah is home to comfort you.  My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family.

raincitygirl

Oh Deb - I remember that terrible feeling of loss.  I'm so sorry you are experiencing it.  Linda is right - it's perfect that Rebekkah is there at this time. 

chabba

I can only echo what has been said.  I, too, remember the pain and hope you find the comfort you need.

I'm so sorry Deb....♥

Deb....DD is here, everything happens for a reason....he left when he knew you would be comforted...so sorry Deb.

Ducky....I go to Crozer (the same system as the one ducky goes to) and I agree with everything you said....maybe DD isn't ready to deal with it yet AND she can go to Chicago cause maybe she thinks that her life will change.....it is so hard, you are a good mom...you gave her the information...she will take what she wants and leave the rest....

sheila888

Ducky...just think how we felt when our mothers suggested anything...♥

Sandy.....It's a proud moment for you....pictures are priceless....♥

True ladies...................my mother was a great one for one liners..........................when something would go wrong she would always say to me..............Don't worry.....it will all come out in the wash...........and most of the time it did......................I have to realize my daughter's body belonged to me for 9 months..............it no longer does....................

Good Morning my friends................yea sometimes I do sound like my mother..............I have a pillow in my family room that says..........."Oh my God, I have become my mother"........................but guess what today I view that as a compliment......she was some woman........

Here is a funny one she use to say..........when I would say to her..........."you know what I wish"..............she would answer back..........."wish in one hand, shit in the other, see which gets full first"................she was a character....but such a lady.........she would always say "a real lady never goes out without her girdle on"...........she had me wearing one of the "Playtex" things, that were all rubber.................I know you older gals have to remember them...............It was like a torture chamber for you "ass"............The first time she saw me in sweatpants, I thought she was going to "faint"...............and forget the "sneaker"...............if I had them on she would say..............."Young ladies don't wear those kind of clothes shopping"....................for her it would be a "high heel", a dress or skirt, shoes, handbag, had to match and you never forget your "gloves"...........in the winter they were "kid gloves", and in the summer they were cotton, but never bare hands..................the friggin woman should have been a nun.............................the first time she saw a skirt, and pants with a elastic waist she said "and what the hell is that suppose to be..............and the best one of all....................."Ducky, get rid of that gum........a real lady does not chew gum.....................no wonder I have problems today............lol............was an only child, and grew up without a father till I was 14..............she married my stepfather, and he was the only father I knew......great guy............

She taught me to be independent, I guess because she had it pretty tough after I was born....no husband (even though his name was on the birth certificate).......and she would always say to me after I was married............."never depend on a man for anything".............be your own person, have your own checking account, and savings account, and take $1.00 a week from your "table" money, and put it away, it soon adds up"...............then she would say "live your life as if there is no man to take care of you, and you will survive, cause you never know what morning you wake up, and he won't be there...........for whatever reason, and there are many..................I survived losing my husband at 57.......I taught my daughters the same philosophy..........be independent, be tough when you need to be, and remember...............the best help you will ever get is at the end of your own arm.................

Don't know why the walk down memory lane, guess I'm thinking about my daughter and realizing...........she is practicing, what I preached to her..................God help her.............

Makratz

Beautiful!  I love your mother!

Markratz................me too..................she was an amazing woman.............
