A friend needs some of those patented LOUNGE VIBES
I just found out that a friend of mine had surgery last Friday to remove 2 masses in one of her breasts.

The docs think they're benign, but she won't know for sure until she gets the test results on Thursday.

I'm shocked, and numb...she's only in her mid-30's!

So please, Lounge...send her some good vibes. We need some favorable test results!

3. Thank you
She's really sore and really scared at this point. Hopefully she'll be feeling much better, on both levels, on Thursday.

4. Thank you
I don't even know how she caught it. Since she's only in her 30's, I'm sure it wasn't a routine mammogram. :scared:

But yes, definitely...go schedule yours! :hug:

13. Leaving on Friday!!!
Soooo excited!

Anytime they find anything in the breasts it's scary. Fortunately mine was nothing but we're 'keeping an eye on it.' Reminded me how important self-exams are.

17. Sending good vibes your way.
You don't have to be old to have breast cancer. My niece was diagnosed at 19 - had a double mastectomy the week she turned 20. It's been 3 1/2 years, and she's doing well, thank dog.

21. Oh my gosh.
I'm so glad that she's doing well. That's scary!

And I know you don't have to be old, but anyone under 50 freaks me out because, due to the lack of mammograms, it's so much less likely to be caught in time.

23. my wording was poor - didn't mean to sound insulting. Should have said something like --
"it seems that more and more women in their 30s and even younger are getting breast CA" or some such thing.

Sorry if I seemed rude.

My niece presented with nipple discharge, not finding a lump - may have been good luck that the tumor was near the nipple, leading to discharge and probably earlier detection.

25. Oh, no worries
I didn't think you were rude at all. In fact, your point was well taken. Age doesn't really matter at all.

I wish there was more I could do, but I'm in LA and she's in NYC. So I figured, what's better than Lounge vibes? ;)

I know people younger than her have gotten breast cancer, but...geez.

I keep telling myself there's no use getting all freaked out yet. Everything could be totally fine. No... it WILL be totally fine. ;)

44. Much too short, thanks
Back in the beautiful Conejo Valley I am.

Here's a tip for you: fly Air Tahiti Nui to Paris. They run a regular Papeete-LA-Paris route. It's a few dollars cheaper than Air France and as pleasant.
