Really?

Ok, I'm starting to feel like Job.  First, it's ulcerative colitis.  Then, constantly low progesterone readings during this pregnancy.  And now?  Freaking skin cancer.  I can't believe it.  I randomly had a bleeding mole on my inner thigh around the 4th of July, so out of caution, I made an appointment with the dermatologist and they thought it was suspicious, so they removed it.  Then, they call today and say it's basal cell carcinoma and that I'll need to come back in after the baby is born and apparently have my leg dug into some more and burnt.  Oh, and to top it all off, this is going to be done just 2 weeks after a c-section.  Come on!  Good Lord!  It just feels like malady after malady just keeps coming.  And, what the hey?  My inner thigh never sees the sun.  So, how can this happen?  I feel so beaten down and exhausted.  I'm tired of health issues and am certainly not looking forward to having my leg dug into while I'm recovering from major surgery and am sleep deprived from having a two week old little one.  Can you guys pray for me?  I really need some uplifting.

  1. Yes, yes, I will pray! So, so, so sorry to hear this, but I am glad you were cautious and had it checked out.
    Lord, I offer up IMHPFP, her health and her little one. May she be restored to full healing and health in your Son's most Precious Name, Amen!

  2. Will pray! Good that they caught it. My sister had it on her nose and they had to take a pretty good piece out. Just need a good dermatologist that will sew it up well and you will recover quickly.

  3. I am sorry you are going through all of this. Fortunately, they caught the skin cancer early. I will add you to my prayer intentions tonight.

  5. Oh, man! So sorry you are having to deal with this. You will make it through, and holding your precious little one in your arms will make the surgery/skin removal easier to deal with! Sending prayers your way tonight.

  8. Oh my gosh! I am so sorry, I will be praying! Oh, and I finally remembered to look for that article--the one I have is Near Adhesion-Free Reconstructive Pelvic Surgery: Three Distinct Phases of Progress Over 23 Years. Is that the one you want? I can either scan it and email it to you or photocopy it and mail it to you, whichever you prefer. Email me at blogger hebrews at g mail dot com and let me know.

  9. Remember, everything worked out well for Job in the end. Keep the faith. One would not expect to get skin cancer on the inner thigh.
