So, last night I got a phone call from my Mom while I was making dinner. She told me that my sister Tessa (who lives in San Fran, CA) has been diagnosed with Breast Cancer... and will need to have her Breast removed ASAP. Talk about shocking! I mean, my sister is 37yrs old.. I'm just overwhelmed with all sorts of emotions.
My Mom didn't know any details.. like if she would need Chemo or Radiation therapy or anything else. I do know that she's going to need more testing of all her lymphnodes & she needs her other breast tested as well. I haven't talked to my sister yet.. but that's OK because I think she's just in shock & scared and trying to deal with the news the best she can. I did text her though and let her know that I'm here & to plz call soon so we could talk.
It's so surreal to realize that your own sister has Cancer. I sit & think about her husband & daughter- which Tatiana isn't even 2 yet! It's just scary. I'm hoping & praying that it hasn't spread anywhere else, and that Chemo will help after they do the masectomy. It's also very scary because my Grandmother had Breast Cancer & had a masectomy performed as well... and they told my sister that it's genetic.

Anyways... just wanted to air that out. Get some of my thoughts out..
On a good note: My best friend Kathleen found out she's PREGNANT again! How fun is that?? I would LOVE to be pregnant again... We would love to have a little boy hehehehehe!! Have a Jozef the 4th running around.. OMG.. lemme stop! LOL!!!

Alright, well.. I'm glad Mikayla reminded me that I had this thing (aka blog).. or it would've completely slipped my mind! I need to bookmark it LoL! I'm off to wash some towels, clean up the living room & maybe.. just MAYBE.. get a shower =)
