Mommy's Scared...

No, not about me. I've been doing pretty good. I was a bit standoffish yesterday and so far today, but I'm still eating well and I come whenever the treat jar is shaken, so mom thinks I'm OK.

She is scared because now SHE has a swollen lymph node. It is a walnut sized lump on the back of her neck. The doctor 2 months ago looked at it and said keep and eye on it, try an auntie biotic, and if lymph node no go down, come back. It didn't get bigger, but didn't get smaller either, so mommy went back to the doctor today and they stole her bloods. She will get the results tomorrow. The doctor said it could be a million things, don't worry too much, but of course Mommy knows one thing this COULD be, and that is the Very Scary Thing Indeed. Mommy says she doesn't want to have lymphoma too, she needs to be able to take care of me... Please purray for my mommy.

My Tall Man TOTALLY understands. He is always having issues with his nodes and they scare him constantly. So we really know your fears and understand. We'll be purring for her that its just swollen.

P.S. Did they stick the camera thing up her nose? They did that to him and it was NOT fun.

Texas said...

No, they didn't stick anything up her nose. All they've done so far is feel her lump and steal her bloods. They are just going to count her blood and see how fast it drops to the ground (sedamentation test)for right now.

We will purr for you Momma. We do understand the fears but do be aware that the doctor is right--there are millions of things that it could be--and many of them aren't life threatening!
