Here I Am

I'm at the breast center for the follow up mammogram. My mom is here with me although she thinks the appointment is for a routine screening.

Considering all of the hoopla surrounding my appendix this week, my boobs haven't crossed my mind much. My stomach and belly button have been my focus since last week.

Now that I'm here though, I'm a bit nervous. In through the nose, out through the mouth. My belly hurts a little bit from overdoing it again today so I just popped a pain pill.

I hope my scared gut is wrong. I hope they'll say everything looks fine and to come back in a year. I don't know if I can handle something so big on top of everything else. Not right now.
