lot's to be thankful for...

I had my follow up with the surgeon this week.  The mass I have is called a Fibroadenoma.  The most common non cancerous tumors found in breasts.  Thank Freaking God!  I am still having everything sent to MGH for a second opinion, and will know for sure if this is something I need to have removed. 

Today is my birthday.  I have a lot to be thankful for,  a lot to celebrate!  Most importantly, my health.  I am so grateful to be healthy! My 4 healthy children.  God, I love them so much!  My supportive husband, who puts up with my crazy ass!  My family, and friends, who I love more than anything!

I have learned a lot in the last year.  I am slowing coming to realize who I am, and I'm realizing who the people are that I can count on, and the ones I can't.  I have learned that even though I am the best person I can be, I have no control on how other people are.  Often we are disappointed in those we love, because they don't react to certain things the way we would, and I've learned that I have no control over that.  I have to just keep on being me, and let the rest roll of my back.

Thank you again, to everyone who has been so supportive of me.  I don't think you will ever understand, nor will I ever be able to exactly put it into words, how thankful I am for every message, text, hug, phone call - I am so blessed! 

This isn't the last you will hear from me.  I am going to keep this blog alive.  I'd like to think I can keep everyone interested/entertained, even if I am not amidst a medical emergency!

I am surrounding myself with people I love today, I hope you do the same!  Happy Birthday to Me!!

Be kind, be well!
