The Call

So, two weeks ago I had my first mammogram done by the mobile unit that came to work. I got the call today regarding my results. I will be going in for a follow up in two weeks. The follow up will be a diagnostic mammogram and ultrasound. The technician who called didn’t sound overly concerned, so I’m trying not to be either. Not saying anything to people for now. Don’t want their worrying stressing me out.

Survivor Guilt

Relief, grief, confusion, concern, distraction, depression, anxiety.....Today was tough. Was asked to come in early this morning under the pretense of an early conference call. Found out instead that our location lost its largest client and that we were laying off over 500 people today. I am fortunately not one of those, but instead am one who remains. And the rest of my team was not so fortunate. Many tears are shed today, and I’m sure there will be more throughout the coming days as we struggle to find our new normal.
