health, physical (several interrobangs and a shrug)
So I have a Lump. It is not a large Lump. It is however an Unexpected Lump. The doctor has confirmed that it is indeed a Lump.
We don't know what The Lump is. I have an appointment coming up this Friday to have someone ultrasound The Lump to determine what kind of Lump I now possess.
Hopefully it is not That Kind of Lump. There are entirely benign types of Lump it could be. If it's a Bad Lump it's still in a place where treatment is fairly simple. Survival odds are pretty good even if it's a Very Bad Lump, which is unlikely.
But I have a Lump now and I cannot refuse delivery on it. At the current moment, semantic satiation appears to be my best weapon against The Lump, to make it feel like much less of a thing.
Lump. Lump lump lump lump lump. Lump? Lump.
