I am literally laughing out loud at the moment. As I typed the title of this post, I looked down at the stock ticker on the bottom of my laptop, and I noticed the stock market is having a fairly significant panic. A market meltdown is not what I was implying with my title, but this fits after all.
I left the hospital about 15 minutes ago, and I stopped off to eat for the first time today. The news from the medical appointment is that I have a benign cyst. In other words, I do not have cancer and no follow up appointments are needed until next year when I again have my annual mammogram. Needless to say, I am extremely happy.
I would like to ring in the new year a second time.
I have a great deal that I want to accomplish this year. Being off the roller coaster that my health situation put me on makes all the more motivated. I still feel extremely tired. I wonder if the fatigue stems from the aftermath of the stress of thinking that something is wrong. I will get to bed early tonight and restart my year in the morning.
