Didn't realize until this moment that the hardest thing about today (well, yesterday) wasn't finding out my tumor is very large and needs to have an ultrasound tomorrow. It wasn't losing a day of work to distraction and grumpiness, and feeling all needy all over my partners and [livejournal.com profile] golden_c_turtle.

It was telling my mom about the thyroid thing.

Mom lost her favorite child (her niece, but mom helped raise her, and she (my cousin) is universally agreed upon among the 20 cousins to be the best of us all) to breast cancer. Patty was an angel, and was easily the best person I ever knew, and she was my age when she died. My mother still hasn't gotten over that, 13 years later. If I have cancer (and I'm pretty sure I don't), it will send my mother over the deep end. That's why I've had trouble focusing today. Maybe I should go read a trashy novel and get some sleep.
