Catherine and I went to Covenant to have a CT Scan of my chest done. Lynette McNamee and Ellen Morris (part of the CT group at Covenant and good friends) helped me through the process and eased by anxiety. Thanks ladies! Dr. Bickley's nurse called later in the morning and said that the Doctor would like to talk to us about the results at 2:00 PM. We met with Dr. Bickley and he told us that the x-ray showed and CT confirmed three masses in my right lung and one on my left chest/breast. He had already scheduled an appointment with a surgeon, Dr. Wait, for the next morning. We head home in virtual silence and disbelief. Catherine begins the torture of calling our family and telling them what is happening. She is my shoulder and God is my strength.
