I haved moved up to malignancy. My immune system's upping the ante now. The doc says it IS because of my sutoimmune crap. She says it's not worth a hysterectomy yet, but I'm having a minor surgery and Cody is NOT taking this well, tonight marks a month since his mom died a horrible death from cancer. And my mom's not speaking to me at the moment because I had to tell her 2 days ago that she's not allowed to take the baby overnight because she's had 3 strokes and she's already caused Bailey's first 911 call. I told her that neither of Cody's parents were allowed to take her, either, but it's like it's a personal thing between her and my dad. my dad is the ONLY (out of like 6) grandparent who gets to take Bailey, (he raised SIX of us without incident, and he plays Santa every year) and my mom's got a 100-lb dog who attacks people for their lunch and let my daughter play around the antifreeze and eat a can of axle grease when we trusted her for 5 minutes.

[*bleep*].
I haven't told my sibs yet. One sister just called and left a worrisome message on my phone two days ago saying she had "a cancer question" and she hasn't returned my call yet and i'm FREAKING out, and isn't the timing just lovely, the day before Yule?
Full moon, and a lunar eclipse tomorrow, on Yule, I need to bundle up and be outside tomorrow night. our 15 inches of snow melted super quick but i can find a shady spot and feel super wintery in a patch of it.
My body is now officially suicidal. lol.
And yes i'm slightly drunk right now. Just slightly though. I was pretty out of it already.
gonna go snuggle my husband, watch Antiques Road Show and design an earring or something. Love you guys.

"  " Cow Bridget - cr@p, cr@p and TRIPLE cr@p,!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Stand your ground - mum doesn't get a second chance - my MiL repeatedly slashed her legs with a knife in front of a (then) 7 yo niece and she wondered why I said she would NEVER get to mind my kids.  Hoping  will bring you better health and a b-o-r-i-n-g 2011 for both you and Cody. Have personally spoken to the chief  .

What do you mean, the ante is up to malignancy but the doctor isn't ready to do a hyster?! I'm so sorry you have to deal with all this and a crap family support network to boot. That's got to add a lot of stress.

Oh Bridge, there's just too much going on with you right now!! I'm sending tons of white light and love your way, hon. On a happier note: Blessed Yule to you, Cody, and Bailey. I set my alarm for 3:30 this morning and stood at my back window watching the eclipse at its peak for a while. How beautiful it was! A lovely way for Winter Solstice to begin. Warm hugs,

I was up last night, too, Kat. Beautiful. I wish we were able to have our Yule party this year, but just too whooped. This doctor seems REALLY cool, she's about 70 years old and been an MD since 1964 and she has a FANTASTIC bedside manner (which is especially awesome since she's talking to people who are in the stirrups AND worried about cancer) and she says the bad stuff is really small and it's only surface right now, hasn't traveled inside the uterus or anything. She said that she thinks having a hysterectomy right now would be "as extreme as doing nothing." I get to make my appt now. I didn't sleep worth a CRAP last night (which was nice for eclipse-watching) and now I'm really anxious and jittery. Got a GP appt in an hour and a half to get my trigger-point injections and such. (Love those!) Love yall. back in a while.  , Bridget
