Glad you got your appointment moved up. Denial won't make it go away but I can understand your fear. Steve is the king of denial, took him 12 months to see a doctor and then ended up with advanced scc. You don't want to end up in the same boat. It may be nothing (I will be hoping and praying it's nothing) but if it is early detection is the best thing. So be strong girl, you can and will get through this no matter what the outcome.

I will be thinking about you all day the 25th, which I think is Tuesday here. Not 100% sure as can never work out these time zones so will make double sure I'm sending good vibes by thinking of you the 25th and 26th Australian time xoxo
