Some Things You Don't Forget

It was around this time last year that I was on pins and needles anxiously waiting to find out what the result of my biopsy was. This time last year I was getting ready to go to a party. A party that I never really enjoyed because I was too worried to even have fun. I put a brave face in front of my friends. I wasn't sure if I should tell them or not, they were having a great time at the party. But later in the evening I changed my mind and mustered enough courage to let them in on my little secret about the lump. I still remember trying to hold back the tears when I told them. They were all shocked of course and it did change the mood that night.

Words of encouragement and prayers poured in. I was relieved I told them. It was like a weight was lifted off my shoulder. They all said they'd pray for my health. They reassured me that it might be nothing or could be benign. Little did we all know that two days later last year my world would be shattered.
