RE: Quality Time with my Breasts

Wishing you the best of luck with all of it. I had a similar issue last year, but it turned out alright. Not fun at all - it gets your mind spinning in lots of dark spirals. It always seems to take ages to get appointments and tests all scheduled out too, I hope yours are coming together quickly. Mammograms are terrible, but kind of freakishly interesting at the same time. Who knew that your breast could be compressed that much and still spring back, not staying a permanent pancake? And all the women standing in the waiting room in awkward hospital shirts, all pretending to listen to the horrible talk-show chatting away on the TV. It was a weird form of comradery.

Beautiful pictures. It looks like perfect peace out there.

Hahahaha thank you!! I feel both reassured and more terrified of the mammogram, now.
Imaging is fascinating, and I appreciate the reminder about that. It will be fun to see the insides of my boobs. Just a couple more weeks, unless they get a cancellation. Who knows why it takes so long to get in for pancake boob breakfast.
Love the imagery of the women in hospital shirts!! I look forward to checking out more of your writing.

Ha, sorry about adding to the terror. I think the intrigue from the whole experience outweighs the bad parts :)

If only they did serve pancakes and syrup as a reward afterward. Now that would be interesting.
