Medical Update (Don't buy your veil just yet!)

The cat scan confirmed the presence of...something...in my right lung, something about the size of a dime. The radiologist said that it could be one of three things: scar tissue from a previous infection, a sort of harmless cyst that's not uncommon among residents of desert climates who inhale a lot of dust, or, you know, The Big C. Only a biopsy or surgery will confirm which it is. I'm waiting on a call from my doc to discuss my options.

I still believe it's benign, so for those of you who were starting to count on getting a one-space boost in the Blogosphere Ecosystem (not that there could be that many of you below me), you might just have to go back to doing good blogging to get a bump. Sorry.

I very much appreciate the kind comments, thoughts and prayers, and it wouldn't hurt my feelings if you want to keep 'em going for another few days.

And I now realize that there's another definition for a really good bud: he (or she) will help you start planning your funeral before you're even sick! Ya just gotta love bloggers...
