[Ozstar]

Oh MD sending you loads of big squishy hugs. I hope everything turns out ok. I will bethinking of you.

[Rouge]

I'm so glad you had that op, and I hope that this week goes quickly and its all good news!

[Trillian]

Oh hun, I just don't know what to say, I really don't I'm just damn glad you had it out when you did

[alioops]

Oh my goodness hun!!! That title is very fitting!!

Rest as much as you need to and fight it all the way hun. You will go into remission.

[MantaRay]

Oh MD, I am so sorry you are going through this. You are in my thoughts hun. I really hope you can keep busy until you have some more news

[AnyDream]

Thanks everyone for your words of support. I'm still "in the closet" with this IRL until we have some more definite information...can't go freaking out the family yet. So it really means a lot to have my online village to turn to. xxx

Is it time to crack open the Haighs?

Most definitely Pregpan! Just had a dark chocolate apricot number that was Mmmmmmmmmm! LOL

[Janie]

MD, wishing with all my might that this is just nothing! I'm glad you can turn to us, and Haigh's, for moral support.

Hi there,



I have looked after many women who have chosen to have elective cosmetic breast work done, and during the procedure have been found to have breast cancer. Suddenly their lives are turned on their heads. Hopefully you can try and remain relaxed while further testing is going ahead.

I work in Oncology, and give treatment to people with lymphomas, so if you have any questions about anything, don't hesitate to ask.

Good luck

Massive hugs and positive vibes are being sent your way honey. I will be thinking of you and imagining a beautiful bright white healing light enveloping whatever it is and taking it away quickly and quietly.

[morgan78]

MD hope you get good results. Sending positive vibes.

[Isadora]

MD thank god for the younger, nice doctor who pushed your surgery forward. I know it will all work out fine, when will you find out more? I will be thinking of you MD.

[~Saram~]

Wow, what a day you have had. I think the title is very fitting!!! I reckon no googling for you on any topics starting with L OK, you are just going to freak yourself out. Go and spend this week pampering and detoxing yurself so you feel 100% to tackle whatever comes your way. You are such a strong awesome woman!

Have you realy not told anyone IRL? Have you got someone to go with you to the appointments?

Thinking and praying for you.

[Neenee Jellybeanie]

I agree no googling! I convinced myself I had chlymidia that way when I was a teenager lol.

you poor thing, that must've been such a shock. I don't know what to say except I know a few people who've had cancer and they all recovered and are healthy now. Has the hossy offered you some kind of counselling service?

[AnyDream]

SaraM- too late! Had to have a very quick google, just to get on top of definitions - and to check my understanding of what the dr said. Have promised myself NO MORE. Not until I really know what I'm dealing with.

I rang my sister last night - she is my soul-mate on this journey through life, every thing we have ever healed or overcome we have done together. DH will come with me to the surgeon's appt on Thurs, and then if I get a referral for oncology, my sister will come to appts with me.

I feel so blessed that this has happened when and only when we have moved "home". We have one of the world's best oncology hospitals here not to mention the love and support of family and friends. I cannot imagine how awful it would have been to be sitting in a hospital room in Canberra hearing the news. Part of me knows that no matter what, the universe/God/namelesslivingsource holds me up. Every day of my life.

Nurse 27 - thank you for your kind offer. I will PM you with questions if and when I have them!

Neenee - So true. The man who moved my furniture into my house stood in my lounge room and told me he had lymphoma cancer when he was younger, 18 years later he's standing in my lounge room talking about how much he loves life. LOL There are no accidents in life.

[Cassius2]

holey flirkin' snirt MD.


i just don't know what to say really. EXCEPT: eat the damn haighs woman; surround yourself with loads and loads of positive energy and love; and know that as little as i am and faraway, i am here for you and you are in my thoughts and am sending you truckloads of positive healing vibes.

we love you babe xx and i hope the mods dont change the title...it's like totally how i would condense that kind of news.

[Artechim]

MD, I cannot believe it! I know if someone else were in this situation you would have the perfect words to make them feel better but all I can say is that I am thinking of you and hope with every part of me that it is the best case scenario for you.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do

Keep Zen
XX Arte

[Kazbah]

Oh MD *hugs*
I'm glad you have your sis there to support you, and that your DH is going with you to the docs to get results.

*hugs* and hopes/prayers that its good news for you.

[AnyDream]

I am going to see my guru-teacher-man today. Want to get my head sorted before I see the Dr again tomorrow. So it's kind of handy having my own personal shaman to turn to at moments like this. Apart from the scariness factor, I feel like someone has wedged a huge firecracker up my bum. To a certain extent, I have used having a baby/young toddler as an excuse to hide away from life instead of getting out there and embracing it fully. The reality is there is No Time to Waste, regardless of what the doctor says tomorrow, good or bad.
