the longest wait while being petrified

the longest wait while being petrified

So on wednesday I went to see my gp about a skin spot I was finding to be quite suspicious and the news turned out to be not what I expected.
They want the spot surgically removed urgently as in tuesday unless others cancel and i can get in earlier. They want the whole thing and as it looks like its spreading already they want more than just the top taken off then if it comes back malignanat more tests to see how far its spread then removed those areas


the worrying part is i dont know how long its been there for and because ive noticed it change twice its a very bad sign. Unintentionally coming off her was fear. Fear from others makes me worse and she was sending off alot of that. She pointed out 2 other points that she noticed that are really not good and are often seen in skin cancers.

Im so scared and it seems like tuesday is taking forever to get here. Its really not easy to sit with and accept. Im bloody pertrified!

@outlander just try to rest hun. You have had a lot to take on board. It's not surprising the way you feel.

I'm not so great right now. Lots of tears and feeling very out of my comfort zone. Missing my quiet little home as this one is on a very noisy road. I'm quite out sorts. I'm going to try to have a short sleep.

@outlander Put your foot down and tell them that you make the rules. If they don't like it they can go to their rooms. So they either sit down and be quiet or they can go to their rooms. Sometimes you need to show them a bit of tough love. I do it with mine and kids need it sometimes. If they don't like it bad luck, that is there problem not yours. You are in charge of them, they have to follow what you say.

Sorry if it sounds harsh but they need to take your circumstances into account. I am sure they know that you have stitches in so they can help you out a bit for a change.

i know it's very forthcoming but sometimes kids need a reality check, mine included!!
