Missing but still here!


I have had a few hick ups this week, sorry for my absence. Last Saturday night I had chest pain and was admitted to Gosford hospital at 1am. I am ok....Just a bump in the road and I guess another week of reality. Breathing difficulty and a fright. Five days in hospital.
Happy to report that the chest pain and breathing difficulty is not my heart or my lungs. I think this is really great, but I still don't know what is wrong, but as it's not major I don't think.
When you have had as many health scares as I, you become tough or I guess I do anyhow, I am back and fighting on as I do. I think it's normal to be afraid as we all know our bodies and mine is not working quiet right.
After an interesting dinner out tonight with friends I have been thinking, it's the anniversary of my mothers death. I miss her 13 years ago she passed away. I think today for me it's the message that life has to go on and it has to. Tomorrow I am going to make a few changes and I as we do to the best of our abilities. 
My quote of today is life is short play hard. Everyday there will be something good that happens and it will, it always does I never ever doubt that. 

My mantra today is On this day, It will be:

gratitude

"Hard nipples" - areola or nipple skin

Someone once wrote"... when i get really cold, or get goosebumbs all over my body, the whole things really scrunch up, like, my entire areola scrunches itself up into a wrinkled little mound. it looks really weird and ugly, and i haven't ever seen other people's breasts do it. what is wrong with my areola/nipples??" The answer: Well nothing is wrong. This is what my areola does too. It's a normal reaction to the coldness or to irritation / stimulation. The little muscles in the areola do a similar goosebump thing as your other skin can do. People often call this phenomenon "hard nipples". Also note that skin on areola has less feeling or sensation to it than other areas of your body. If the areola was very sensitive, then breastfeeding would probably be quite uncomfortable because the baby pulls and tugs it! The nipples are sensitive but the sensitivity changes with hormonal changes, such as occur at mestrual cycle or pregnancy. Also this v...

Kate Jackson Breast Cancer a flash back

THE MOST MOMENTOUS CHANGE IN Kate Jackson's life began early one morning in January 1987, during her fourth season on the hit TV series Scarecrow and Mrs. King. After a phone call informed her that the show's taping was canceled because costar Bruce Boxleitner had the flu, Jackson went back to sleep. When she woke several hours later, "It was out of the blue, but perfectly clear," she recalls. "I sat up in bed and literally said, 'You have to have a mammogram.' " She did, and two days later a biopsy confirmed her vague fears: A minute growth found in her left breast was determined to be malignant. "I was forced to face, squared up, my own mortality," says Jackson. "I had to decide whether I wanted to live or to die. And if you choose life, as I did, it's never the same." For three TV seasons 16 years ago, she was famous as Sabrina Duncan, a girl-next-door gone glamorous and the character critics dubbed the brainiest o...

Once ovulation and  menstruation  begin, the maturing of the breasts begins with the formation of secretory glands at the end of the milk ducts.
