I MISSED YOU GUYS!!!!
Hi everyone! Phew! I have been off the board for almost two weeks and I feel like I have missed SO MUCH! I have kept up with a few of you via email and myspace so you guys know the scoop.
I have been going through a "breast cancer scare". I swear the not knowing and the waiting are far worse then just finding out and knowing. I wont know the results until the 13th of October. I wish I knew now. I havent been eating or sleeping much. I am slacking on my emails and my myspace. This just isnt like me but when you hear that you may have cancer everything just comes to a complete hault. All I could think about was Mike and my girls. So now I will get the results and move forward no matter what the results may be. I have a very good feeling that it may just be fibroids and I keep telling myself that. Women in my family have had those before. And I am younger (33) so I hope that is on my side too. I have not let this scare slow me down on the WLS train though. I have already been to Cardiology twice, Dr K's office, the therapist, and gyn. Now I need to get a scope done by Dr K due to excessive heartburn and losing my voice a lot due to acid reflux. Ugh! Anyway I hate all the test but I am knocking them all out as quick as I can. Dr K wants to set up my RNY for November. I am so READY!
I am so excited for EVERYONE who has went in for their surgeries while I was MIA and for those going in this week. Many ((((((Hugs))))))) to you all! I hope all goes well. And to all of the newbies..........WELCOME! Im Jilly and I live in Pasadena. ;o)
Ok...I have so missed you guys and no matter what I will try and post atleast once a day. I have just been so FRAZZLED lately. Hope your all doing well. ;o) ~Jilly~

Thank you so much Terri. My husband and I have played out every scenario together even worse case and I now know I can handle anything. I am staying positive because nobody in my family has ever had it, im young(ger), and I never took birth control pills.(Which I heard play a part in breast cancer) So for now I am truly thinking positive. Thanks again. Have a great day ~Jilly~
Jilly honey I am so sorry you are going through this scare. I am sorry I haven't been keeping up with myspace and had no idea. I will definitely keep you in my thoughts and prayers for good results.
That is great that soon you will be joining us on the loser's bench.

I am who I am and accept my feelings wholeheartedly.
Those that mind don't matter, and those that matter don't mind.

Thank you Cira!!! Your so sweet! I have not been doing too well updating my friends on myspace either. I have just been feeling so BLAH like time has been standing still almost. But I feel much better now. Its just the waiting that is the worse. I have to get another mammogram and an MRI which I never even knew they did for breast. If anything I am atleast educating myself. ;o) Thanks again. xoxox~Jilly~
My thoughts and prayers are with you!
Reminder to everyone that October is Breast Cancer awareness month! So, don't forget to feel the tatas!
Myspace now has a page dedicated to Breast Cancer Support. The link is www.myspace.com/pinktogether. Lots of interesting stories on there.

Thank you. ;o) You know every year I donate money to the Susan Komen foundation and have friends who get involved in the race for a cure. I always think "that will never happen to me". I know millions of women go through the "Scare" yearly getting tested and I feel like its stress we need to make us more aware. I would love to check out the myspace page. When I have my break later today I will check it out. Thanks again honey. xoxo ~Jilly~
I can so relate: I am going thru a scare myself right now: Mine started with a routine mammogram: two weeks later I got a letter saying they needed more views and
a sonogram : had to wait a month to get the appointment: then the radiologist comes
in and says we need a biopsey - waited for the lab to call and get the appointment-
Last friday I got a message left at the house - A different radiologist saying
she does not think a biopsy is needed: that they can just "watch" it for a while.
I am waiting to talk to my GYN to figure out how to proceed.
Its a frustrating thing to be going thru. I will keep you in my prayers
