Woot!
Looks like we’re not doing it again (for now). My X-rays and bone scan came back clear. That’s such a huge weight off my shoulders!

Are we gonna do this again? Not sure. I should find out in the next day or so.
I started having pain in one of my right ribs about two weeks ago. It could be a sign that my cancer has metastasized into the bone, or it could be nothing. I talked to my oncologist about it and she wanted to do diagnostics on it, so today I went over for several chest x-rays and a full-body bone scan. Results are pending right now. This is one of those times in my life I’d loooove to be wrong. Really wrong. Ridiculously wrong. Bone metastasis is bad news. Either way though, at least I got a rejuvenating nap on the table during my bone scan? Also, here’s a photo of me yet again enjoying ARA’s snazzy gowns, just because.

BoobNews: "It's sweet to bee recovering" edition
December, 2016
I just got back from checking in with my plastic surgeon and almost everything seems to be healing beautifully. It looks so good that she said, "Maybe I should have you hold a sign that says Dr. Potter did it!" I laughed and told her if she gave me the sign I'd be happy to hold it for her. The only thing that's not healing in an above average way is my new navel. The plan? Put honey on it. Yep, medical-grade honey can help wound healing so I'm going to be extra-sweet for the near future! Good thing it's not the spring yet, so at least I don't have to worry about bees trying to start a new hive in my belly.
