We got a couple inches of snow last night.
It was so pretty outside this morning with the snow covering
the trees, bushes,and lawns.
My mom used to call me on mornings like this to tell me to be careful on my drive to work. I miss her calls.
I sent texts to my adult children this morning and asked them to be careful on their drive to work.
I went to my gynecologist office Monday.
Prior to Monday I had seen the same doctor since my 20's.
He retired.
It's been 4 years since my last appointment . Shameful I know, but I've been busy taking care of boyfriend and too afraid to go, thinking they'd tell me I have cancer. I've been fearful of routine screenings ever since boyfriends lung cancer diagnosis..........finally the fear of not having my routine screening was greater than my fear of bad news. So I made an appointment.
I really liked this woman. She's an advanced practice nurse, not a doctor.
She seemed to understand my concerns, and anxieties.......I didn't feel judged. Because of my fear/anxiety she called me right away with my results.
They were normal.
It was a huge weight off of my shoulders!
I should have gone sooner!
