Well, the last month has been a hectic one for me. Mostly good though, although not all. The bad news is I must go for surgery. During routine tests, my urologist has found a lump on one of my ovaries. I have to go see a gyne oncology specialist and will probably have to have it removed. I am not worried so much about the big C as I am about the fact that I need to have surgery. Ovarian masses are very common, and the bigger they are, the better the chance of them being benign. But surgery scares the hell out of me. I haven't had one since I was 14, but I had had about a dozen or so by that age.
Well, the first bit of good news is that I got a letter from the mayor in response to the letter I had sent out. He said he will get his staff to gather info for him, which he will review, and then he will get back to me.
And the last best bit of good news is that I found a condo! An already built condo! No waiting 2 1/2 years to move in. It's just a small 1 bedroom, but it's about 100 sq. ft. bigger than the one that is not yet built that would not let me have a ramp to the balcony. This one does have a balcony too, but the threshold is only 3 inches. And no developer involved this time! There is so much to do before I move in!! But it's all so very exciting!
So, those things have been taking up my time, keeping me busy. Along with my full-time job, of course. One day at a time!
Step in and read some of my trials and tribulations of life as a wheelchair user. Agree, disagree, offer advice, condolences, congratulations, irate responses, laughter, similar experiences... whatever! It's all welcome!

Congratulations on the new condo! I was hoping for a solution such as this.
Good luck on the surgery, you'll be in my thoughts.
Congrats on finding a condo that you can get into. My hubby is in the military and everytime he gets transfered, it starts all over again, most of the so called Dining Rooms in apt's are so small that you might be able to put a small side table in it and still get in, in my wheelchair, and don't get me started on kitchens. Any way good luck with your lump, maybe it's one that can be srank with shots, mine were.
