Some Family physicians amaze me with their ignorance to their impact on others, and their lack of sensitivity with important versus unimportant information. I say this because I was just recently bombarded by 2 different medical secretaries each with their own agenda calling me with “results” of tests. Can you imagine being on the receiving end of 2 telephone messages, same day from your doctors office, each after undergoing a grueling procedure of a mammogram and blood tests and an ultrasound. What would you think?! I like to think positively…but when the signs point to something else its difficult to go to that happy place! So thank heaven that these were “false positives: so to say. So I needed some B12, and iron supplements, and some follow up tests and a referral to a specialist.
Wipe sweat off brow. I am truly hopeful that all those years of worry and fret haven’t caught up with me. My father died of Cancer when he was 58. That is just 16 years older than I am now. I am not ready for embracing immortality. I have just started truly living, and loving being healthy. So I am making another commitment to myself.
I need to find ways to settle my racing mind, to find it peace. I remember going to a retreat a number of years ago to learn meditation. I made contact with one of the teachers today, and plan to attend an upcoming session.
