I’m still here in Utah!!

So I am still here. I now leave on Friday morning. The doctor appointment on Monday went great. Everything is all good except for my shoulder. They scheduled an MRI for yesterday morning. All day my shoulder hurt so bad. I was in the worst mood. I think it was because of the way I had to keep my arm. My whole arm and hand was totally asleep when the test was done too. I felt bad for my kids. I had no patience. Luckily today I am feeling great. They told me that they send the results to my doctor in 48 hours. I’m guessing I should know them either this Friday or early next week. I had a biopsy done when my whole event started in Dallas and it came back ans a benign tumor so it isn’t cancer. It is just bothering me, so I want it taken out. They did the MRI to make sure they weren’t missing anything and to get a better look at it. So that is the update. Things are just fine. I really can’t complain.

I love spending time here. I miss hanging out with my sister. I love my nieces and nephews too!!! It’s fun to hang out with little s. They are so cute. Moody but way cute and fun. My nephews are way cute too. They play with Michael and Ricky very well. Sabrina, my sister, has a skate park down there street so they all go there to ride there scooters. A few times they came back with injury’s but nothing major. For Cameron, he just hangs with me ALL the time. He is my my side all day. I don’t mind but sometimes I could use a little break. Mainly we have just been hanging out at the house playing.

It is pretty cold here too. So I don’t go outside much. I don’t know what I was thinking listening to my sister when she told me it was going to be warm. Ha!! Warm for a Utahan!!! As for us Texans, it is COLD!!!! It is in the 60’s and raingin today. The sad thing is that I just brought shorts, short sleeve shirts, and sandals for all of us!!! I did put a light jacket for all of us luckily. I will be pulling them out today. I forgot to yesterday when I was at her house. She is getting cement put in by her garage, so there was an excavator digging. All the kids loved to watch. I wouldn’t let them go outside to watch because I was afraid they may get in the way or get hurt. I put the little ones on her kitchen counter to look out the window. They loved it. I took pictures but I will have to post them when I get home. I didn’t bring a cable to download them. Shucks. So that is my highlight of the trip so far. I’m having a great time. ~Becca:)

A quick thought…

I have traveled to Utah to get my normal scans done (MRI, CT, and bone scan). It’s really silly how every time I get ready for them, I am so nervous. I am so scared I may hear some news I don’t want to hear. But then in the back of my mind I feel like everything is going to be fine. I heard that this is normal. I hope so. So here I am preparing myself. I am excited to go see some of the nurses that were so good to me. I call them friends. It’s funny how I forget what floor I need to go to see them AND get my scans done. It’s not like I haven’t been there plenty of times before. Maybe someday I will remember, but until then I will be the women who pushes the elevator buttons on each floor to look out to see if I recognize anything!!! I’m crazy.

I am also turning the BIG 30 next week!!! Yeah!!!! I know to some that is still a baby age, but to me it is a mile stone. I remember when I was sick I kept saying that I haven’t even been able to turn thirty yet. I didn’t want to die without turning the BIG 30. Everyone is always talking about them turning thirty and how some didn’t mind it and how some did. I am excited. I can finally be out of the twenties. On to a new number now. I hope the thirties are fabulous. I need them to be. Randy asked me if it is all I thought it would be now. Turning thirty. Well it isn’t. I don’t feel any different. I am just so happy to be alive and here to celebrate another birthday. It will be so dang fun!! I just had to share a few thoughts/feelings. I will have to post after my doctors appointment on Monday. Please say a prayer for me.

I am so grateful for all of the friendships I have. It means so much to me and my family. Becca:)
