Why am Idoing this, is beyond me. I want and have no connection to cancer or cancer groups. That is something for others out there.
But then, here I am, a woman who suddenly has my world turned upside down in 5 minutes. 8 a.m. I have my yearly mammogram, and bingo, with my tik beside me with Tehilim which I planned to study later with a women's class, my gym clothes, etc., and I am told that I must have an ultra sound right there and then: a few minutes later, I am told that I will need to book a biopsy, and so at 8:20 a.m I find myself headed for a taxi to take me to Misgav Ledach hospital for a biopsy. All within minutes! I am in total shock! It can't be. I take my mammograms yearly. 6 weeks ago, I was checked manually when I went for my gynocological exam. Nothing was amiss!
How could I, so responsible and careful to check myself, suddenly be thrown into this abyss of terror, fear, shock, anger? For a few moments, I allowed myself to cry and called my cousin as I had to let it out, as well as my oldest son. But alone, as we all are at times, I traveled to be ultra sounded a second time, and to have a biopsy, a terrifying experience for me. My private domain of my lovely breast is mauled, manipulated, or so it seemed to me, and then stuck with needles to freeze an area to be bi0psied.
