Woo Hoo!!!! NASCAR here I come!
Many of you know that both my mother and my grandmother were diagnosed with breast cancer at age 60. For years I’ve said that when I make it to 61 without breast cancer, I’m going to reward myself by doing one of these “Drive a NASCAR Car” experiences.
Well, I just got the news that I made it! But it wasn’t without a few tense moments. In a nutshell…..at my annual physical last week my doctor felt what she thought was a cyst on my left side. The yearly mammogram was already scheduled for this morning.
The first group of “pictures” showed nothing on the left but found a “spot” on the right. They did another set of xrays on the right side which showed nothing (apparently a “tissue fold”?), followed by an ultrasound on the left. After 2-1/2 hours, about 2 of which were spent waiting in my lovely blue gown and reading ancient magazines, I was told that nothing showed up and all is fine! Hooray!
Lou had given me the NASCAR Experience as a birthday gift before he knew my criteria for going ahead with it. He graciously said whenever I was ready the trip was “on the books”. I’m officially ready and we are looking to schedule it for August at the California Auto Club Speedway in Fontana , California . Zoom! Zoom!
