RE: Prayer needed

You have your hands full and are in my thoughts, hoping that the "cancer"
is a shadow, scar tissue or a mis-read.   Is there any chance some of the
other tests are false positives?  I have had several friends who have
experienced that situation...very scary until you know what the situation
is.  I had a cyst on one of my ovaries that I had to have checked but it
went away after a couple of months.  You mentioned that the first test was
a month ago.  Since they couldn't find anything this time, could you have
just flushed whatever it was with a period?
