Can I fit into my skinny jeans now?

Ironically in Breast Cancer Awareness Month I find a bump, lump, something not belonging to me. Monday I’m at the gyno and Friday I’m in the surgeon’s office. The surgeon says lets ultrasound it and if it’s a cyst will stick in a needle and drain. Set up ultrasound machine, I think I only got one joke in “we better not see hands and legs”, boom to needle and removing the little bugger. It looks like a whole teaspoon was creating my chaos and it was over in a snap. I feel lighter I mean I probably lost…what’s less than an ounce? The doctor said many people are too scared to have things looked (80% are benign) at I’m telling you right now the most painful part is the waiting and removal of the bandage, I think she used a whole roll of tape (I’m pretty sure if I threw my topless body up against the house I’d stick with the residue left behind). Life’s too short, so make Life longer…go to the doctor. God I’m an after school special, “Mommy found a lump”….
