‘Twas a week since my surg’ry
To take out the mass
I still can’t believe
It all happened so fast
We started out chatting
And blogging ’bout boobs
Yet somehow this week
We’re onto chest tubes
We’ve learned about mole rats
The kind with no fur
And we’ve all guessed which boobs
Go with him or with her
We’ve met lots of doctors
Who all aim to please
Some say just a lift
Some say double Ds
If you go with an implant
Then, you’ll need to choose
‘Tween saline and silicone
With both you can’t lose
But you’re not done yet
Now you must decide
If it’s under or over
the muscle inside
The scars, anesthesia,
The risks and the price
It all made my head spin
This roll of the dice
And we found a lump
in my breast on the way
But learned it was nothing
Hip-freakin’-hurray!
Then later an x-ray
Revealed a round mass
Attached to my lung
And we struck an impasse
So a CAT scan, a spec’list,
A loud MRI
Soon gave us to know
that a surg’ry was nigh
So I dealt with my fears
And I packed up my stuff
And I went to the hospital
‘Cause I’d had enough!
Through IVs and catheters
Chills and Code Red
I came out of it all
I’m now home in my bed
My right side’s still achy
It hurts when I cough
So I’ll rest, write & e-shop
Hey, look! That’s half-off!
My friends were amazing
My family divine
But the best thing of all
was to hear “It’s benign.”
