Breaking the Barrier

[Jodi]

Blimey. That's a change for the books. Good luck.

Thanks Rob

It will all be over soon and then I can get back to business

 

[Jodi]

like I've said before, you strike me as a strong person like my mother-in-law. Regardless of how serious the surgery is, I think you'll be able to do whatever you have on your competition plate.

Thanks NT

It's not a serious surgery so I'm not worried anymore. I can't wait to lift normal again though.

 

[Jodi]

Jodi has to be better for Vegas! I get to watch them eat plates full of food.
I'll be wearing the drewl bid.

Mmmmmm Vegas Buffet

 

[Jodi]

I'm bidding for tickets on EBay for the Cardinals/Pats game this weekend. I don't care about the Cardinals, I want to see the Pats

I hope I win them

Where is the game Jodi? In Foxboro??
I love the Pats too! I am kicking myself I didn't get tix to the home opener last Thursday.

Good Luck

 

[Jodi]

No it's in AZ where I live now.

 

[jstar]

No it's in AZ where I live now.

I am an idiot. I know you live in AZ but I didn't realize the Cardinals were from there!

Did you win them?

 

[Jodi]

Not yet. I won't know for 2 more days.

Sweet w/o Jodi...so very strong!

 

[Jill]

One strong chickie, I have trouble with 30's and 35's!

 

[Jodi]

I just got back from the doctor. My surgery is being called off for now. They don't want to open me up quite yet because there are 2 small new cysts that they feel should be monitored that only showed up in an ultrasound. Basically they don't want to open me up twice if they don't have to but they left the decision up to me and I decided to wait. So much for all this being over soon.

 

[naturaltan]

are the two new cysts beign (sp) or do they/you know?

 

[Jodi]

The other one that was suppose to be removed is fibroadenoma which are tumors. They suspect that these are just typical breast cysts but really want to keep an eye on them and if they are just cysts then they will try to drain them with a needle

I always thought tumors and cysts were the same thing but I was corrected today.

Geez, guys just love boobs, but for girls they're just as pain in the ass! Hope they are cysts, as draining sounds waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay better than surgery...and less invasive! So what does that mean for your w/o's?

 

[Jodi]

I still have to have surgery to remove the tumor. It's just a matter of when now.

Workouts and diet remain the same for now.

Oh sorry Jodi, guess I'm not paying close enuff attention

 

[Novo]

So much for all this being over soon.

Bugger, bum, and bollocks. That really stinks babe

I'm guessing it's the waiting that's messing with you most, when you were so close to the end of the whole stupid tunnel.

I recommend a spoil-yourself event to turn the crappy day around. Surprise dinner date at a fave restaurant with Scott? Massage? Facial? Too many martinis tonight? Whatever it takes to put it out of your mind for a bit and make you feel good

 

[sara]

It will be over soon sweetie

 

[carbchick]

Jodi, that's rough news. sorry to hear it. keep hanging tough there. the time will pass. and meanwhile, distractions distractions distractions ...

 

[Monolith]

Come on, Jodi... just think - you can get away with eating cheesecake for that much longer.

 

[PreMier]

 

[Jenny]

Hey Jodi!

I'm so sorry you have to go through this Sweetie, this will be over soon and you're going to kick ass! We all know it

Take care of yourself and lean on the people close to you

Oh crap and bugger. That is horrible news. I hope, for the sake of your sanity, that things work out quickly and it does not drag of for that much longer...

Stay positive.

 

[nikegurl]

freaking sux

sorry jodi

 

[PreMier]

Sorry about the comment above.. I guess I was trying to make light of a bad situation. I apologise.

I really hope that everything starts to come together. You are strong, and all will be well.

 

[dalila]

Jodi I don't even know what to say! I can only imagine how disappointed you must be that it's gonna take while longer to get it all done and over with. Did they give you indication of when they gonna be able to drain/take them out? Hang in there girl, not being able to lift heavy is not that bad on the grand scale of things.

 

[Jodi]

Thanks everyone. I'm fine really. Physically and mentally I feel fine. It's crappy but I basically made the decision myself. I don't want to have to go through this twice so until we know what's up with these cysts/tumors, I'm staying away from the knife

I just hope I can still make it to Vegas.

 

[Jill]

I just hope I can still make it to Vegas.

I do too

Take care of yourself
