THANK GOD ITS FINE!
okay its just a pap, but for someone who's had their fair share of cervical cancer and complications from it, i'm so happy. i called 2 days ago and they never got back so i called today and said i'd wait on the phone til someone would give me my results.
for some reason they thought they were looking for the results of a PET SCAN, not PAP TEST. probably my fault since i've been slightly plagued with chemo brain. so they sadly called desparately asking where i had my pet scan. told them PAP not PET and we all had a laugh and i came out clean. i'm happy tonight.

Yippie yeah for the good news. It IS cause to celebrate! I was chuckling with a fellow teacher at our school's new found love of celebrating EVERYTHING with a party / shower. The secretary is becoming a grandmother and they threw a party for her, another teacher got engaged, one married, and more parties. I said that we should ask them if they'll celebrate our clear paps and mammies. Probably not. But in any case, I'm very happy for you. And you're from little Rhodie, I lived on Block Island for a time. I heart RI!

Dear Ariel 1, That is great news! That is what each and everyone of us want to hear.
Maybe you should celebrate with an alka-seltzer tonic on ice.
I know how hard it is to find humor in all of this, but if it wasn't for some humor and fun, I think we'd all be in the Looney Bin Coalition!
Wishing you continued good news on all of your tests!

Ariel - very happy for you. Since I have had more or less the same experience you did, I just hope I do as well down the line when my chemo is finished. Have a wonderful summer - it will be with this good news!
