Re: ~cattleman cafe~ & another 24...
Good afternoon Cafe friends. Had a great fourth, the kids shot off fireworks, we grilled bison (very lean, hard to grill). It was good to be able to spend time with my family, no booze involved.
Had some good news, the biopsy came back non-malignant. It took so long because it is a very rare type of lesion that will show up every time on an MRI looking like something serious, so the Doc's double and triple checked to make sure that they all agreed they hit the target and agreed on the results. So that's a load off, very happy about that. My wife is now trying to decide what she wants to do, and how this could affect future screenings / testing. Maybe just cut it out, maybe just leave it. It will take a few consults I'm sure before we decide on that course of action, but a much easier thing to think about and talk about than the alternative. My thanks to all who sent thoughts and good vibes our way, we both greatly appreciate it.
I'm feeling well; confident in my stage of alcohol freedom. I tend to dwell on regret a little too much, replaying embarrassing or negative life episodes over in my head. But, I am also letting that feeling just pass on. It's there, I can't stop it, but I don't have to let it sit and fester. It can move on through my mind like log in a river.
Anyway, thanks again everyone. 24 more for me please and thanks.
