Well in a flurry of excitement yesterday I received phone calls from Dr. Hartel, Dr. Luther and the lab. I knew something wasn't right the day before when I got a message from Dr. Hartel regarding my CT scan and they had told me it would take 2 days for him to get results. Apparently they found several enlarged Lymph nodes. I read the radiologist report and he thinks it's this big long word that when I looked it up said leukemia or lymphoma. So off to Dr. Tyner I go today at 9a.m.. He's a pulmonologist. At work yesterday Deb and Rach got me flowers, Vikki got me a stuffed animal and Jim ( the President) gave me this book called 100 things to always remember and 1 thing to never forget. NICE!!!!!!!! I was straightening out my bookshelf at work and I noticed there was a book wedged under all the others. I pulled it out and guess what book it was? That's right, Live Like You Were Dying. God has a sense of humor. Okay I'm getting ready to go so I'll keep you posted. It really is a Good Day To Live MacDougal!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hey Momma! I can't wait to hear what the specialist says today. Hopefully he'll do some scheduling and get you right in for further testing. I'm so glad you've surrounded yourself with people who care so much! With them around you'll have a house filled with flowers and little gifties! Keep me posted. Love you tons and miss you!!!!!!

Hey, what do I always say? If it doesn't work out in the end, it's not the end. Everything is going to work out. The biopsy won't be fun, but hopefully they will rule out anything TOO serious and they can tell you it is something that is an easy fix. You have gotten through a lot of stuff in your life and come out a stronger person for it. This is no different, and everything happens for a reason. I'm not sure what the reason behind this one is, but it will make itself apparent some day.
I LOVE YOU!

Ok...now it's the end...pretty much. It's the end of wondering what the heck is wrong with you. I told you it would be an easy fix. I'm just so glad it wasn't anything more serious. You got a pretty big boo boo though.
I LOVE YOU!!!!
