The Alien

So I have had this lump in my back for a while that I affectionately call "the alien". I finally went to the doctor because my backpain had become unbearable and my heating pad had become an outfit accessory-not cute.

Turns out "the alien" is actually a tumor that has grown across my spine (at T11 for you medical people). Major bummer. A little scary-ok a lot scary. I see a Thoracic Surgeon on the 24th to figure out what to do.

I will keep you posted on the fate of "the alien".
