DH grilled burgers, Deb. It didn't take too long so he didn't complain that it was chilly. And he commented that the burgers "we" cook at home are better than ones in a restaurant. Good for him...lol!!! And sorry to hear about the cells being "inflamed"...I have no idea what that means except to ensure some concern on your part. Call and ask for clarification, so you can relax.
Lacey - I guess the BCO iPad app is just to guide you through diagnosis and treatment. I didn't download it after I read about it. Oh well. If I want to do a picture, I'll use my laptop or my netbook.

I have a follow up pap in 3 months so I made an appt toward the end of july. She said not to be concerned, it tested negative for malignacy. Just that the cells that come out of the cervix are inflammed. I've been googling. Probably shouldn't. Might scare the hell out of myself. LOL

There is nothing like a burger on the grill.

Apple- Loved your story on your mom, im so glad she didnt take her final vows and had kids!
Deb- Hope its nothing serious and you find out soon what they meant. I would call and find out exactly what they meant by inflamed.
Michlle- You are always so good with posting pics and helping us out. im not good at high tech stuff so i just have a cheapy phone that dosnt even take good pictures. someday i will take the time to fiqure all that stuff out.
Laurie- Your boys look so cute, your younger one should be in a huggies commercial.
Had D' igornos pizza for dinner its been ages since i had a frozen pizza, had some frozen cooked and crumbled sausage in the freezer so topped with that and some cheeses and it wasnt to bad.

Deb it usually means nothing. Either lack of estrogen or maybe you +ahem+ were busy the night before you went in, or used a cream that didn't agree, maybe yeast, or infection, but he likely tested for that and it's probably a hormonal thing. or random result. Not the same as pre=cancers.
Trying to figure out a way to pay for my daughter'r medical bills. She is not doing great. But I hope she will get better. She has a very high deductable. $2500.

Bedo- send ing lots of love and strength to your daughter.
Today it is my turn to go to the dentist. Bleck. Then I get to go to the gynecologist for my annual. I think I thought it was better to put all the yuck in one day. Now that the day has arrived I am not so sure...
Deb- I would get clarification too just to put your mind at ease.
Also, I agree- love a good burger from the grill!

Bedo- Sending prayers for your DD too.
Tomorrow i will go to the dentist but only for a consultation first before i have work done and be put to sleep.
Yesterday was a hard day for my husbands family, his brothers son passed away early yesterday morning he was only 40 yrs old they live in Michigan and not sure we can make the funeral because of DH job. I hate those early morning calls you always know its not good!

Debbie- I am so sorry! Sending you a big (((((hug)))))). How horrible.

Thanks Laurie- We just found out that since he was Athiest ( not the brother, but the son who passed) so they will not have a funeral they are just going to donate the body to science. Is this common? I thought even athiest have funerals? He took his own life so maybe they are not thinking straight right now and still in shock but just wondering if this is normal, even DH is puzzled by this.

Debbie- maybe it is the way he passed that is making them not have the funeral. Sometimes people have a very hard time letting people "in" when there is a suicide involved, almost that it's too private? I have a cousin whos husband committed suicide and it was very dramatic, in the papers etc. They didn't put the funeral times in the paper and had no calling hours. 4 months later her grandmother passed at the age of 89, they didn't put her obituary in the paper until after the funeral was over because they didn't want to talk about the husband who had passed and thought they would just get a lot of rubber neckers at the grandmothers funeral. It's tough. Even when my mother passed from BC, we had no calling hours. We had the funeral but did not invite people for food etc. We just didn't want to. We all kind of felt like we were protecting her somehow? I don't know....
I hope everyone is able to find their peace somehow with out it. Sending strength and love your way.

Apple, my favorite ice cream is pistachio. I don't see it very often.
Dinner will be a salad and bowl of left-over turkey noodle soup that dh cooked yesterday, making use of the carcass from Sunday's turkey dinner. We went out to lunch today and had hamburgers at New Orleans Hamburger and Seafood restaurant. I agree that hamburgers on the grill are great, but these hamburgers were good, too. DH had onion rings which met his high standards. My garlicky potatoes that come with the burger were tasty.
Big financial pain today. Repair of the A/C in DH's 1-ton Ford truck is $2000. Ouch. Better financial pain than suffering and grief.
Lost a few ounces today when I got a summer haircut!

debbie: So sorry about your nephew. A lot of peple donate their bodies to science when they die and it is a nobel thing to do. Normally they go to the medical universities for study. My mother wanted that, but my sister and I just couldn't go through with it. My uncle donated his body. When they were finished, they cremated him at no cost to the family and returned his ashes to us. We still had a memorial service for him. Perhaps your nephew requested this as a dying wish.
Prayers and condolences to your family.

Thanks that makes sense to me more now, and i can see how you would want to protect them. And it could be that he did indeed request that too.

I am having steak for dinner with sauted mushrooms and shallots. Green beans with bacon, shallots and almonds. I shredded up some raw kale and dressed it in some dressing will let it sit for a couple of hours and see if as someone suggested will not taste bitter, or tough, will let you know.
Michelle- Have you heard from Joyce? Wondering if she is ok

Debbie - I am so sorry for your family's loss. My brother committed suicide,so I have an idea what your famiy is going through. We did have a funeral for him, well really for the rest of us, not really for him. But if he wanted his body to be donated to science, then that is what should be done. The family could still have a memorial service. It helps to have closure.

Debbie, condolences to you and your family on the death of your young relative. How very sad.
Deb, I think you are right about driving yourself nuts if you start googling your test result. Hope you can get more accurate info from the doc so you can not worry til your next appt.
Taking Dr. Michelle's and Dr. Apple's advice about trying to boost my energy, I had a Greek beef kabob for dinner and chased it with a teaspoon of Molasses.
Hope I can stay up for at least a part of the ND girls playing in the NCAA championship game. All these basketball girls totally amaze me with their athletic strength and stamina!0 -
Bedo, sending healing thoughts to your daughter, and hugs to you as you deal with the this parental and financial worry.

Oh Debbie... I am so sorry for your loss. It is never easy to lose someone but, when they are so young and, given the circumstances, I'm sure it is doubly hard.... My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family... Hugs....

thanks Lacey and Seaside.

Sooo on to food... My green beans were so good i couldnt stop eating them. The kale was so much softer raw when letting the dressing sit on it for a few hours and very good, i still like my baked kale chips though.
0 -
debbie: What kind of dressing did you use on the kale? I would like to try that...I get tired of the usual green salads all the time.

I already made an appt for July for the 3 month pap do over. They say don't be concerned, I told her I wanted a copy of all test results, they will mail them to me shortly.

Kaara- I usually make my own dressing with evoo, balsamic vinegar, a little dijon and garlic but didnt feel like making it so used a store bought, kens dressing and marinade its a very good dressing but prefer my own. Thought the kale tasted a bit more like parsley this way. but very tasty, and will be good added to salad greens after it has sat in the dressing first.

Debbie, I too am very sorry for your loss. I lost a brother to suicide. It about killed me at the time.. i became an alcoholic (thankfully for a very short time) .. I just loved him so much and tried so hard to make his illness (schizophrenia) bearable for him..
suicide is really difficult. hope you all are all able to come to peace.

Apple, I am so sorry. My brother also has scizophrenia and we have come close to losing him many times. It is a horrible disease, worse even than BC in my opinion.
0 -
Apple- Im so sorry for your loss too, Wow, i guess this has touched more of us than i knew. I loved my sister with all my heart, my other sister and i cry over her every time we talk.
Momie- Yes it is terrible. i have never blamed or got mad at my sister i just couldnt go there its an illness and i belive theres such a pain deep down that only they know and feel.
I never talk about this not even to my close friends....

Deb- Im glad they told you not to be concerned, thats good news! Fingers crossed for your do-over to be normal.

Debbie so sorry for your loss, it must be especially difficult being so far away. It does sound like a lot of people here have had their share of pain from similar situations. You just dont know how anyone is feeling on the inside, lets hope they are in a better place now.
Last night I took all the veges I could find in the fridge, onion, peppers, zucchini, asparagas, mushrooms, and a can of whole tomatos and sauteed and then threw in some spinach linquini...oh yeah and lots of garlic Was very good and cleaned out my vegetable bin.
Mowed the lawn yesterday, 3 hr job, was wiped out. Need to get my energy back after that last surgery!

Wow, huge hugs to everyone. It saddens me that so many of you ladies have lost someone. We really are a group of strong and resilient women.
Last night was fried chicken, baked potatoes and corn on the cob. The corn was from Florida and was actually very good. We were pleasantly surprised.
