Freaking out - not about me, but mom

QueenSansaStark

My mom is a BC survivor like me. She was dx'd back in 2002 with ER/PR+++ BC. She did a mastectomy, chemo, and Arimidex.

Fast forward to a week ago, eight years since her dx. She found a lump on her mastectomy scar tissue. It was biopsied one week ago Friday. Today, she gets a call from her onc saying he wants to see US (mom and me, I am her caregiver though I don't live with her) in his office next week. The hospital didn't call her first.

This seems ominous to me. Right now she is so very calm I wonder if she's in denial - maybe she's just hoping for the best.  I am the one who is freaking out here. I don't think her onc would call her out of a clear blue sky without something being afoot.

Any prayers, good thoughts, etc. would be appreciated. I hope I'm freaking out over nothing. (Oh yeah, and as a survivor myself this is no fun, but I have a therapist, thank God.) And thank you for listening.

Thank you, Chainsawz, much appreciated!

I am much calmer now that I got a good night's sleep. Honestly I don't know why the onc's office would want to see her that soon if it wasn't some kind of bad news, BUT I've got fingers crossed and prayers said. And if it's "just" a local recurrence then that can be dealt with.
