Retest - Experience 31; Fun Fact 34

I guess it really is Groundhog's Day. After spending about 5 hours at the hospital on Thursday, we received an unanticipated outcome -- they were not able to get enough of a sample due to the difficult posterior position of the calcifications. What they got was benign, but they got so little that the result is somewhat inconclusive. But, they were able to get a clip in there that should help to guide them better, so it looks like we're probably going to try again, if the surgeon and the other radiologists agree that that's the best course of action. We won't have word on that until the end of next week or so.

In the meantime, thanks everyone, for sending your support and good wishes. It really means alot! Here's a picture of me in front of the mantle in our apartment with beautiful flowers sent by our friends Amanda and Mary (fun fact: irises are my favs and they sent them without even knowing that :)
