You don't have


Doctor: You don't have cancer. It's a cyst, non-cancerous and it won't become cancerous
Me: (sighing with relief) You have no idea how good it is to hear that.
Doctor: (laughing) I have some idea. Wear a cup when you work out and briefs in general.
Me: Who knew that I coulda taken away somea this recent stress by wearing tighty-whities?

I almost wept when he said I didn't have cancer. No lie. Score one for me. The only person I told in the whole world besides the docs was my brother. Secrets are lonely things.

For the male readers of this blog, you should know that: Although rare, testicular cancer is the most common form of cancer in men between the ages of 20 and 34.2. Take that under advisement.

It only took five visits, three months, three doctors, three urine tests, two blood tests and one ultra-sound to find out. To celebrate, I made myself a burger on whole wheat. No ketchup, mayo.

I'm sick with a cold but that I can handle. Sorry for the scare; I was up all night worrying.

Crazy right? Just madness...

Music: All my friends say that of course it's gonna get better

Regular nut-rubs may lessen the occurrence of bumpy balls. Just so you know.

Glad you're healthy.

You always know exactly what to say - I'll take that under advisement too.

I'm glad also.

Actually, she doesn't know about the whole thing. She's already worried enough about the business drama. I told my dad all is good, though. Maybe he told her, I'm not sure. I'll talk to her tonight.

It's like the car accident. I don't wanna worry anyone needlessly until I know for sure. For the car accident and the cancer scare it worked out; for the theft, not so much.

Thanks, man.

Sorry to hear you're sick, but glad to hear you don't have cancer. Try to get some rest and drink some soup or something (I won't be able to send you any though, sorry). Hope you feel better soon!

When my father went through a similar scare, his doc told him 'you use it or you lose it.'

Glad you're going to be alright.

Green candle for you tonight, love.

Wow! I'm so glad you don't have cancer and are all healthy. Sick with a cold and bumpy is A-OK after that.

You need someone to regularly examine you. You know...make sure there are no more inexplicable bumps.

I suppose the right person will show up when she does. But then what will I write about?
