I filled in a lot with the snow swipes because that is the only thing that seems to happen up here - I'm becoming severely fevered by the surrounding cabin.

Thank you Taps.  Waiting is usually a pain in the a**, only this time it was in a more northerly part of my anatomy

As you have read Pat, my results came back negative - in one way.  You sound like an Amazon warrior and that's the way you should be thinking. 
What got me was the lackadaisical means of informing me about the results.  After the mammogram, the girls said, 'If you haven't heard by next Tuesday, phone your Doctor.' That meant that ever phone call until then was fraught.  And when I did get in touch with the Doc on the Tuesday I was told that 'results' were given out the following Tuesday - that was another week of waiting.

Thank you BC-A.  Here it has finally stopped snowing and the temp is above freezing.

You certainly filled in a lot with the swipes by the snow plow! I do hope your results are negative and you only have to worry about the snow! I raked for a bit in my lawn today! It was in the 50's; I hope you get the mild weather soon! sam

May your test results all come back negative for anything and everything.  Too bad you have to wait for results.  Waiting is difficult and scary.  Hang in there.

I hope the exam goes ok. I hate mammograms. hate the thought of

breast cancer, because it's so damn sneaky. Not always a clear-cut yes or no, and even an MRI can't tell if or how far it's gotten. I hope your results come back negative...

I think of cancer cells as scouts for an invading army, and my body's white blood cells and others as my Special Forces team, constantly on patrol. If I get enough antioxidants and a balance of vitamins and etc., my team clears out the frontiers, blows up the invaders and keeps the perimeter safe. Not very pink and feminine, but when you're fighting for your health, we don't need dainty pretty, we need warrior thinking.

Well, good luck with all of that.
