My mom's cousin lived in farm near there that we visited frequently.<br /><br />Yep UM is very slow to do biopsies. Because of it, my stage 1 tumor quickly turned into a Stage 2 tumor. Last winter when they thought I had another tumor, they were much quicker to deal with it but fortunately it was an expensive false alarm.<br /><br />I was told by several people to get over cancer. This when I hadn't been out of treatment for more than a few months and unable to lift my one arm.Sue in Italia/In the Land Of Cancerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11146373251097877539noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478470125662290860.post-70223152253832435712014-06-19T22:40:06.804-04:002014-06-19T22:40:06.804-04:00Just found your blog as a jump over from Elephant&...Just found your blog as a jump over from Elephant's Child. <br /><br />Greens are bitter and need to be cut with fat to make them palatable. But then you are cooking like a southerner. I spent my childhood warring with my father about whether I was going to eat it. If you want greens they are most palatable worked into a homemade smoothie. I'm a southerner, take my word for it. <br /><br />I also must say that I heard the N word more in the 8 months that I lived in Lapeer than I had heard in my whole life growing up in Georgia. I kept wanting to ask if they ate with that mouth. <br /><br />Also, about your side bar. I can't believe that it took you that long to be diagnosed and to get into treatment. In 2004 I found the lump on Monday. On Wednesday I went in the morning to get the mammogram and ultrasound. They sent me with the images across the street to the surgeon who did the biopsies and I walked out of her office around 3:30 with a diagnosis. I know that is unheard of, but months of waiting for a diagnosis...I can't imagine.<br /><br />I am 10 years out from the diagnosis and some people wonder why I still need the support of other survivors. Usually they haven't yet been touched by cancer.<br /><br />Glad to find another co-escaper.Lisa https://www.blogger.com/profile/09324961653370110887noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5478470125662290860.post-22213463919750053092014-06-13T16:45:06.281-04:002014-06-13T16:45:06.281-04:00We have a pump-action water pistol which lives by ...We have a pump-action water pistol which lives by our front door to deal with cats who consider the bird feeder their own personal smorgasboard.
