Thursday... A decision made.

We didn't get the best news today but it was very encouraging.

There was a very obvious "bad spot" in both mammograms. But there was not a lump detected by anyone in the examinations. Since it had only been a year since her last one, I thought this was very promising. The surgeon explained this morning that the spot could be anything from a swollen lymph node to a pre-cancerous mass. He also emphasized that it's size now wasn't anything to be alarmed over (around 3mm). He offered two options today:
1. To have it biopsied now or 2. Schedule another mammogram in 4 months. He explained that less than 1% of the ones in this situation turned into anything to worry about. We chose to watch it closely and have another test in April.

So I guess we're still in the woods but it's not near as dark there tonight as it was yesterday. At least today she was back to complaining of regular old aches and pains. I think I'm gonna have to take her in for a complete rebuild!
