Dang that sucks. I am lucky my mom has never had anything like that, but who knows maybe she could??? Anyways I'll keep your mom and you in my prayers.
My mother got some kind of vaginal cancer in one of those spots down there, I'm not sure which, she never told me anything about it, I learned about it from reading papers, she felt I was too young to know I guess, and I'll never forgive her for not telling me. I was worried sick for months because didn't know what was wrong.
Thanks for the support guys. This type of stuff has happend before with my mother. Five years ago, she developed a lump in her lymph node. Almost everyone thought it was cancer, even the doctors. Eventually, once the doctors practically said it was cancer, they surgically removed it. It turned out not to be cancer. Although I was way too young back then to grasp the magnitude of the situation, I remember the feeling. I have a similar feeling now. Hopefully there I'm just paranoid, and there is nothing wrong with her.
KA, you don't be too harsh on your mother. I'm sure she felt what she was doing was for your own well-being, considering that you were young. I'm just so stressed right now. I'll be back later.
I wouldn't consider that young, either. I had a lump in my lymph node for what seemed like 3 months. My girlfriend didn't do anything to help my fear. She was like, "Oh crap. Get that checked out." - Yay. Anyways... it went away and I'm fine. I hope the same for your mother, mj.
