Welcome to Friday Art! This cute owl showed up on my laptop screensaver and I decided to sketch him for you today. It is an ACEO (2 1/2" x 3 1/2") in watercolour pencil.
Linking to Nicole's Friday Face Off and to Gillena's Art For Fun Friday.
Well I had a scare on Nov 6 when I went for a routine physical. The doctor found a 1 cm lump in my left breast. She ordered a mammogram and breast ultrasound. The clinic was able to do the ultrasound that same day but that mammograms were booked up to March/April. I would be put on a waiting list unless they found something.
On Nov 10 they called to schedule my mammogram that day. Was I scared. I sent an email to my doctor yesterday (Nov 13) asking what would be my next steps after getting the results. They replied that same afternoon saying the ultrasound and mammogram results were normal!
We celebrated with a nice dinner.

I would have been scared too, but it turned out alright, great!!!
ReplyDeleteYour painted owl is lovely.
hugs Elke
Did your hear the thump? Was the rock that fell from my heart to read all turned out "normal"... you could write crime stories, really. I got all scared.

ReplyDeleteWhat a relief. I'm sure the adrenaline pumped extra hard.
ReplyDeleteOh, Christine, I've had that scare before and am quite sure I understand your anxiety while waiting for the tests and then the results. I am so very grateful that you had wonderful results and can breathe a lot easier. This is definitely Thanksgiving-worthy news. As for your owl, I love this piece.

I'm thinking of adding an owl to my Christmas cards.

ReplyDeleteCongrats on the great results on the mammogram and the ultrasound. Medical things like that can be quite worrying.
ReplyDeleteGood news from a health test is time for a happy dance of celebration. It is happy dance time for you.
ReplyDeleteHi Christine! Your owl looks amazing. Happy FFO!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness I am so so so very grateful that your results are clear! YAY! That is so amazing to hear! I have to do a mammogram every year and my appointment is coming up in January. I love your owl drawing. so sweet as I love owls. Have a lovely weekend Christine. Peace and love.
ReplyDeleteOh Christine, I'm so glad that the results came back normal! Yes, that must have been a scare - good that they could squeeze you in for the mammo.
ReplyDeleteYour owl is so very cute.
I'm so glad you're okay! The owl is charming!
ReplyDeleteOh Christine, that is such a good news. I went out last week to celebrate with a friend who just finished her radiation after finding a breast lump, and so I am very glad I don't have to read about you going through the same things. That must have been a terrible scare, but good news you didn't have to wait forever for the mammogram either. And I love your owl.
ReplyDeleteChristine, that is very scary!! I'm overjoyed that your results came back normal--- hallelujah!!
ReplyDeleteI am very glad about the good news. Your drawing of the owl is fabulous.
