My neurologist insisted that it was a very strong possibility that I had a tumor in my brain. It took 2 weeks from the moment he wrote the words - "diagnosis: brain tumor" on a prescription pad to give to the MRI tech, until a Friday evening 2 weeks later, when I received the voicemail from my doctor that my scan was clear.

I just took some xanax because I was trying to relax. I've been having some problems lately that worry me. My MRI showed NO BRAIN TUMORS so I am thankful for that. Honestly, for 2 weeks I was paralyzed with fear. And I was internalizing all of it, so I wouldn't upset anyone else. I barely moved from the couch for 2 whole weeks while I waited for the results.The internet is a terrible thing http://www.my-daydream.com/pathetic/2010_02_14_archive.html#1708301143030924482noreply@blogger.com (peggy)tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3227138.post-7020224025797747127Thu, 11 Feb 2010 16:15:00 +00002010-02-11T11:37:56.312-05:00This isn't to replace a blog or whatever, I just felt like it.

Devan was only at school until 1:15, due to week-long parent teacher conferences. I wasn't feeling good all morning, so I took a nap with Wren. I felt good enough after my shower that when I picked Devan up at the bus stop, I decided to take them both shopping. First we needed gas and I needed coffee.

An example of this is the line "The Brazilian Sea amazes me" from the song "I Cried Like A Silly Boy" by Devotchka.
