A friend of mine had an ultrasound and it was discovered she has a cyst on her ovary. Not uncommon. My friend has a slow-growing glioma in her brain - CANCER. Her gynecologist ordered her to get into the office the next day, so my friend was quite distraught, as you can imagine.
"Are you in any pain," I asked.
"No," she replied.
"Did you know you're a marked woman among medical professionals?"
"I am?"
I went on to explain how her doctors are going to now keep an extra keen eye on things like this because of the cancer. I told her how they will look to see if any abnormality in her body was cancerous from now on. I let her know that I could be hit by a bus and they would say I died from "complications of diabetes."
I asked my friend to let me know how it went after her appointment with the gynecologist. I am pleased to say I received a text saying, "You were right. I just have to get another ultrasound in a month."
