When it rains it pours...

On top of the money mess I created....

I was talking to my mom todayday about some stuff. Out of the blue, she says "Well, since I've got you on the phone, I might as well tell you."

This is Mom code-speak for I've got really bad news and I have no concept of how to lead into it.

My mom has a history of fibrous cysts in her breasts and last year they found some very suspicious cells in her biopsy... So when she had her yearly mammogram done...and there were spots, she wasn't worried.

The radiology tech however was and did three more pictures from different angles. The radiologist read them...and called in another radiologist...and based on the results...she's seeing the surgeon next Tuesday. It appears they'll be doing a biopsy and probably surgery as well.

I've got MS, Mom's seems to have breast cancer...there's a third relative out there with bad news or a dark fate coming soon...but at least I know now why she was so insistent that I go down there for Christmas.

Hope this all turns out OK with your Mom.
