Strange Lump on Christmas


Mary Jo deals with so many side effects such as nausea and aches and pains all over her body as she battles an aggressive form of breast cancer, sometimes its hard to tell when there is something different or alarming. For the past few days she thought she might have a bruise on her upper right arm because it has been aching but there is no visible sign of a bruise.

Today, Christmas day we discovered a lump in the lymph node area of her right armpit. It is unfortunate that we are not able to just call her doctor to ease our minds as to the diagnosis of the alarming new lump. We will have to wait until tomorrow before we will get an answer. It could be a simple bacterial infection but it defiantly gets your attention.

We wish all of you a very Merry Christmas
