When I went in early this morning for yet another ultrasound, this time in color, and a mammogram, at least 15 years premature, I brought the knitted lamb Daniel gave me as my emotional support. The fear of the weird tissue masses on my body turning out to be diagnosed as cancer after a month of testing and bi-weekly doctor's appointments of course weighed heavily on my emotions. I momentarily reverted back to being a child clutching a teddy bear.
I was, however, able to maintain some kind of dignity by hiding the lamb inside the pocket of my hooded sweatshirt which I insisted upon wearing over my hospital gown as it was totally effing freezing this morning.
No 7th Heaven tonight. =(
