Friday September 15 – more of the same

Friday is much the same but with no ice.  I am stiff and sore.  The Lump is near the chest wall on the bottom side of my breast.  Very close to the chest muscle.  Moving my right arm irritates the soreness.  I wore a regular bra, and we took our time getting ready for dinner with the family.  The underwire of my bra quickly irritated The Lump.  It was a good night for dinner with my parents and other family.  We skirted the issue of The Lump and why my right boob hurt.  We laughed, shared stories, and ignored the giant lump in the room as much as possible.

Because of The Lump, we decided to limit our activities at Disneyland parks on Saturday and told the family we would meet up with them later in the day to still spend time with them before our dinner reservation.

I was in serious pain by the time we got home.  My bra caused most of the irritation and pain.  The Lump was now angry – hard and swollen.  That curl of anxiety perked its head, but I tamped it back down.  Not yet.  Life was going to be good for at least another day.  But I will get a new sports bra tomorrow, so I won’t have to fight with the underwire anymore.

Life is ignoring the The Lump in the room
