i'm so brave

I am a very brave old lady if i do say so myself with my tongue firmly in my cheek of course.  I made an appointment the other week for the skin cancer clinic and was a tad surprised that i got an appointment for the following day as there is usually a bit of a wait.  I usually see a female doctor and was not concerned at all even though there was a mole on the back of leg that had changed recently.  My anxiety hit the roof however when they said my usual doctor was away and i was seeing a male doctor.  There goes my comfort zone.  I was going to make another appointment when dr female returned from leave but decided to be brave.  So in i went.  It went ok and i showed him the mole i was concerned about and he found another one on my face that needed removal too.  Ok, i can do this, make another appointment like last time and bring maz with me for support.  My son is not good with stuff like this and my daughter lives a way away and has the kids.  Then to my absolute horror he said he would do it now.  What?  Ok, so i sucked it up and went for it.  One on my face and the one i was concerned about on the back of my leg.  Well, it’s done.  All by myself, i’m so brave.  i waited the five days and went back for the results and thank goodness both were benign.  bandages are off and both well on the way to recovery.
