She doesn`t remember when she first noticed it. She first felt it one day, chose to ignore it, telling herself its probably nothing. After some time it appeared again, she went to the doc, who ignored it and gave her vitamins. She forgot about it after that, until she couldn`t lift that side of her arm. The pain went away when she stopped sleeping sideways, she told herself its still nothing. She started having pains, only on that side. She started getting worried when she noticed a visible change, and thought of asking her mom. She couldn`t ask her straight away, her mom doesn`t talk about the C word, cz her grandmom passed away cz of it. Even she herself had surgery it seems. She just wanted to check it out, just to see what it was, but she asked herself; what if its positive? .....what then?
After everything she`s learned, after everything she`s heard about breast cancer awareness and prevention, she`s just going to ignore it. Telling herself that her body can hadle whatever it is....then again...what if....
Ignorance is bliss but certainly not in this case. I know it is tough but it is better to get everything checked out. You will be fine !! Hugs.
