Deep Breath
You may know how it feels. They'll take a picture in a week or so and the tension is building. Every day more and more quick flashes of desperate thoughts find their way into your brain. Get out! Bring in positive thoughts. Everything will be OK.
Night time, can't sleep, what if? What if I have to go through this all over again? I can't, OMG, I can't!
Keep busy. Watch movies, play internet games, cook, snack...anything to keep the mind going in a good track.
Then the day arrives and you make the long trip just to wait in the office wondering when they'll finally call your name. Get undressed, put on the robe.....just step up here m'am. Closer, bend the arm, breathe, hold it! SQUISH! Step back.
Thankfully, the wonderfully sensitive technician comes out immediately and says the magic words..."No problem, Joan. Everything looks good!!!""
Take a deep breath and smile ....and laugh....and shout!!! Yessss!!! (can you see the arm pumping?)
Comments
Oh, yes, the arm is pumping!!!! With tears of joy. We can't help worrying...
