Well, the biopsy showed cancer, so I had an MRI on Thursday and am to see the radiation oncologist on Wednesday. I hope to have surgery, a lumpectomy, before leaving for Alaska. The doctor says it is curable which of course makes me feel so much better. Let's just do it and out damn spot, out!

On a happier note, we will be grandparents again. Twice in one year. Matt and Carmelle told us Thursday night that she is pregnant and due in March. Another March baby! I'm so excited. Now Owen will have someone to play with at family gatherings.

The fourth brought good food, good company, and good fireworks! The picture is of the new happy mama.

Waiting for Owensdays

Okay, I thought about completely giving up this blog, but what else do I have to do this summer? I am currently awaiting biopsy results for a lump in my right breast. The nurse, doctor's wife, said it didn't look good, but the doctor said that the lump was very small and certainly curable. I suppose I already know what the results will be, and then I'll have to ask a lot of questions to decide what the next step will be. Jim made me feel good when he said we'll just deal with it and go on. He's right, what else can we do.

Wednesdays have been changed to Owensdays. Each Wednesday afternoon at 1:00 I get to spend the afternoon with Owen. I rock him, hold him, look at him, kiss him, sing to him, change him, laugh with him, and talk to him. Kelly can do errands or whatever she wants without worrying about Owen. He is so darn cute! Each week he changes. So far I've been able to see him about twice a week. Still not enough, but it keeps me happy.
