My breast cancer diagnosis
So….how do I start this? Perhaps there is no easy way to say this other than direct: I have breast cancer. I have found out this last week. I still feel like I am living in a sort of a movie in which I received a role I did not cast for.
I still smiled when I was preparing for the biopsy procedure as I was still hopeful that I would be okay"

After I woke up and saw the little patch reality struck me: maybe, just maybe, there is a probability that this could in fact happen to me?
.jpg)
It all began in the month of April this year. I felt a little lump, the size of a pea, under the skin at the top of my left breast. I completely forgot about it and told to myself that it might be something harmless like a cyst or some fat accumulation. My medical ignorance was casually leading me cheerfully through life.
Then life happened. This part of my story might seem odd and completely just like in a Hollywood movie. For you to understand how miraculous it is that I have found out that I have breast cancer I must take you a bit deeper in my past.
I have been painting since I was six years old. I never pursued arts because my family told me it would be a waste of time and that artists never make money. I continued to paint and bury my dream.
In April I was dating someone. We had plans to move to another town and my heart sparked with joy when I found out that in that city there was also an art university. Feeling so happy about it I shared it to my then partner. He did not seem to understand my enthusiasm and with a harsh voice and blunt attitude he dismissed my dream. Again. Something in my heart broke in that day so bad that it literally physically hurt. I cried. I felt an ache in my heart. I then shared my dream to pursue arts to one of my family members. I received the same blunt and harsh response: it is a stupid idea to pursue arts at my age – 35. I came back home crushed. I cried again. I sat on my knees, tears falling on my cheecks, put my hands together and started praying to Holy Mary. I asked for something from the Universe to help me pursue my dream. Somehow. Anyhow. Because I did not see a way anymore. The next day I decided that the dismissive attitude of my then partner is an indicator that he did not have the capacity to understand me at a soul level and I have let him go. But the things that followed after will show you the miracles that God can do.
In the upcoming days life continued as usually. Until one night when I started to casually scroll through google pages looking for art contests. I have found one in Romania and the prizes were promising: I could get a tuition free year of study or move beyond the last phase one which is portfolio and get into the practical assessment. There were a couple of days until this contest would be over. I felt an itch. I felt a desire. I felt a voice inside my head whispering to me and this is eerie looking back now: “Apply, there is no more time”.I listened to that voice and applied to the art contest on the 10th of May. I then continued my life and almost forgot about it.
Then on the 13th of June I receive a reply. I have won the art contest and received the second prize. Here the fun begins. I was struggling with my inner critic about going so far away to this new town and pursuing my dreams. I now realize how powerful childhood can be and how years of conditioning someone into believing that their dream is worthless are hard to erase. I decided to go despite my fears.
While sitting in the beautiful artsy Airbnb in this new town and feeling proud for enrolling myself for the practical part of the admission I was having a casual chat with one of my best friends via phone.
Here I am, ready to enroll to the Arts University and enjoying my Airbnb like everything is working to a charm

The thought of mentioning my lump to her came into my mind. Two months have passed since I felt it and I was now thinking of mentioning to her because she was a doctor. She immediately called me and urged me to go as soon as possible to do a breast ultrasound. Seeing her so serious got me feeling panicky and , lucky me, I managed to make an appointment in this new town in the very day when I was supposed to have my practical drawing admission day. Can you see the divine orchestry at work? If I would not have applied randomly to this art contest, if I wouldn’t had won it, if I would not had come to this new town to enroll in June to the Art University….I would not have made this breast ultrasound.
I still remember the morning of 16th of July. It was a gorgeous day. I was so happy. Like a child. I even recorded a video of myself vlogging about this experience because I was imagining showing it to my future kids in order to inspire them to always pursue their childhood dreams, even if they are over 30, 40, 60 or whatever. The drawing assessment started at 9:30 in the morning and we were supposed to have 6 hours to complete it. At 1 PM though I had to go and make my breast ultrasound. In my mind this would have taken an hour maximum, I would come back and continue my drawing after I would have spent some money on doing this unnecessary ultrasound that my best friend convinced me to do.
Have you tried to make plans? Have they ever failed? Have you sat in awe looking at how everything is not working how you planned it to? Well...the man that did my breast ultrasound scared the life out of me. I expected a cyst. Or something harmless in my breast that would go away. I had no time for something else as I was filled with enthusiasm for finally going to study arts. When the doctor splashed some cooling gel on my left breast and images would appear on the screen my smile would disappear. He told me that I have a lump which will not go away and I should go to see an oncologist and work myself through getting a biopsy. I felt how my world shattered. I barely could hold my tears while I had to go and pay for the ultrasound. I called an Uber. It was a beautiful metallic blue. I started crying in the car and apologized to the driver. Here I was. In a new town, ready to pursue my dream (finally) and this thing happens. “I am just 35 years old and I hear the word cancer. I can’t help but burst into tears.” This is what I told to the driver, feeling helpless, ashamed, lost and pretty much not in a painting mood anymore. I came back to the room where the painting admission happened and gathered my things. I have left the painting as it was, with only 3 hours of work done into it. It felt surreal.
I came out of the building and went to a near park. I started to make phone calls like a crazy person to look for someone who would do a biopsy on this darn lump as soon as possible. Busy, busy, on leave, we have no personnel. You name it, all kinds of answers.
I come back at my place which I booked on Booking crushed. I checked in during the week on the 15th of July and had to check out by Saturday on 19th . So I had three days to find a doctor in a town where I knew nobody. “This can’t be happening to me. I have no one in the family with cancer. Nobody. I eat healthy, I have cut out sugar two years ago, I never smoked and I do not drink Coca Cola. I literally have the lifestyle of a monk.” I was pissed. I was confused. I was desperate. I was devastated. Then a thought came into my mind instantly. What if I would text to guy who owns this place where I stay? He is a local, maybe he knows someone. He might think I am crazy. Who cares? I was so desperate that the image of me that some stranger might have was irrelevant . So I texted him and asked for help. He said he will try. A couple of hours later one of this friends makes an appointment for me to a private hospital to go and see a surgeon. This is a legit proof that miracles can happen.
I go to this hospital the next day. I explain to the surgeon that I have no idea what I am doing in the hospital, I just came to this town to study art. He check my lumps and came with me to the oncology office. He told me I should talk to the oncologist. I was in awe. I felt like in a rapid train going with light fast speed and I did not have the time or capacity to realize yet that this thing called cancer is happening to me. The oncologist told me that we should better start with a breast MRI to have a better assessment of this lump. I was having my period then and breast MRI can’t be done during this time. So I had to come back in two weeks on the 30th of July to have it done. The waiting time is psychological torture if you do not have your shit together. I had to muster all of my strenght to keep myself strong mentally and not spiral to disastrous scenarios.
Surprise, surprise….I still had the audacity to believe that this MRI would prove to be another waste of time and money and that I should be fine. It wasn’t. So I ended up in the oncologist office and I saw the surgeon entering there before me and two more people coming in. I entered and sat on the bed smiling and ready to give an arrogant smirck to the doctors: “See, I am fine, I told ya, I have the lifestyle of a monk!”. They were positioning around me just like in a circle. I smiled. I said: well, what is it? “Honey, I’m afraid it’s not good. And it is not only one, there are two motherfuckers of this kind in your breast. You need to do a biopsy right now. Today.” said my oncologist. I bursted into tears. “But why? I have no family history. I have a healthy lifestyle. I do not drink Coca Cola. Like seriously? Why?” I said crying. I still could not process all of this poopy information about my health coming my way so fast.
Long story short as I will probably enter into details another time, I have done the biopsy in that day. On the 1st of august. Do you know what also happened on 1st of august 2024? My paternal grandmother died. This was such an odd coincidence. I still, after all that happened, had the courage to expect a positive result from the biopsy.
Do you ever have pictures of you smiling and being happy just before some event came to change your life completely? I was smiling in the morning of my biopsy, thinking how I am confident that this horror movie started in June will come to an end. I was wrong
.jpg)
My sister travelled to this town to come with me when we were supposed to find out if the biopsy showed cancer or not. I had to wait two weeks for the result. I was positive. But I received the news that every healthy woman is afraid to receive: you have cancer.
I wanted to cry but I couldn’t. I cried so much before receiving the cancer diagnosis that I was depleted. Infiltrative breast carcinoma G2. I have no idea what this means for me as I am currently refusing to do any Google search about this little bastard.
The emotional and financial impact of such a diagnosis is crushing. I am doing all my best to keep my head high and writing about my journey is therapeutic. I feel I need to share and write in order to feel that I am not alone in this. In a way...it might sound crazy...but I am so grateful that this cancer is located somewhere where I could easily remove it if necessary and that it did not spread to other areas of my body. I slowly begin to see the life lesson that it gives to me and I will write about it in my future posts. There is a lot of financial burden on all of my family members who now try to help me to move to this new town and start treatment. I am currently thinking about ways in which I could gather money in case I need to access better treatment and extra care. Maybe I could sell some of my original art? Maybe I could try to make coloring books and sell them on Amazon? I will definetely work my brain around it as it is clear that this breast cancer diagnosis comes with some financial costs that I am not prepared for.
I have went through a lot of things in my life but if you were to ask me If I would ever have cancer I would have laughed in your face: no way brother, my family tree is clean as most of them died of heart conditions , no past record on cancer and I have the lifestyle of a monk. Smirk. It seems that now life laughs in my face showing me that nothing is certain and that the resilience that I have within me is now about to be tested more than I was ever prepared to be put to the test. Will I keep my faith in God? Will I trust that everything happens in the Universe for the well being of every creature? Will I have the power to surrender and release the desire to control and just enjoy this journey, with whatever it bring? Will I accept my fate? Will I have the courage to rise from the ashes after I feel that life burned me again? Will I?…..

I'm so sorry to hear that News my friend 🙏🏾
If you ever want to speak to me in private send me a message on Instagram @kgakakillerg I'm here for you keep being creative my friend 🤗 🙏🏾
Thank you🤗
You are more than welcome 🤗 if you ever need to talk I'm here for you 🙏🏾
I am so very sorry, Mary. After reading your previous post on this, I hoped it would be good news. Never berate yourself for the audacity to have hope in the face of tragedy, my dear, never. Of course, you hoped it would end up well, and there is so much strength in believing and hoping, not least giving one the courage to live another day. I hope you keep on hoping and believing, despite this sad news.
You're not alone. And you are strong. So, so strong. <3
Thank you🤗
Hope you feel better after writing this. I have heard this multiple times, that it makes one's mind more organized and it lowers the stress. About selling on Amazon, I have seen that they have an option of making affiliate links and you get incentive per sale lead. But, I think it requires one to have a website.
Yes writing is therapeutic, at least for me. Thank you for the support!
Mary ... I can fully understand what you're going through and this may sound stupid as they say only those can understand what you're going through who have lived it. I have, but I was given the better result. Yes, I was lucky, even if this happened 3 weeks before my university dissertation.
I don't want to write about it, but I wish to say, stay strong. One step at a time. Art is on your side and you can use it to get your mind off things, when you're done with therapy. You have caught it in time, so chemo should help you get better. I know words are useless here, I know that first hand as nothing anyone says can make you feel better, but still, you're fighter! Stay strong and we're here to support you. 🤗💚
Glad you made it through.
Thanks! I wouldn't wish to anyone what I went through and especially what Mary is living now.
Art is what miraculously made me to discover this cancer and it will get me out of this. I am blesses to have it as a means of liberation. Writing is also cathartic. Thank you for the warm and kind support, I pray and I trust that God gave me this in order to enrich me as a person. Somehow I must trust the divine at work.
So what happens next?
My grandmother died of cancer when I was very young (eight) and I remember something that the specialist said during her diagnosis and treatment, and frequent hospital says.
"You can only take this one day at a time."
As I think I said on your prior post - now is the time to be selfish. Pursue that Art. Don't let anything stop you.
It makes you reevaluate your life, get rid of all the things and people you don't like and don't deserve your time, and live life as you like.
Life is short.
Yes it is, and in my grandmother's case, it gave her purpose to have goals to keep going on. One more birthday, one more christmas.
Exactly! You value time in a different way and this is why I said getting rid of things (that make you uncomfortable), but mostly people who don't deserve your time and presence is essential. You'll keep those who are truly good people and spend more time with them.
It's a life lesson and Mary, after getting healthy (she will get there, I'm 100% sure!!!), will see life in a different light. I'm glad she has art on her side as it can help a lot. Art is therapeutic in itself, let alone in this situation.
And the fun part of all of this - and for the others reading this comment chain- you don't need a diagnosis of a life changing condition to employ this one secret hack to living a more fulfilled life. :)
Exactly! You know, most people are people pleaser, they want to fit the mood and the expectation of others, hoping appreciation and recognition, but at what cost? And basically why? If you need others to approve of what you're doing or how you're behaving, to make you happy, that means you live a poor life. I could write a novel about this, but better not hijack Mary's post.
Agreed. :)
What's next? Finishing this packing ordeal as I am surrounded with cardboxes in which I have put stuff that I call " part of my life".
I am moving this week to the new town where I will start this journey for God knows how long. I am waiting for the oncologist to call me with the immunohistochemistry results from my biopsy and see what's next. I talked with the owner of a cancer NGO from this town who told me that I should seek support and I was happy to find this organization for cancer patients.
Today I washed my hair. I enjoy it while it lasts. As I will probably have to prepare mentally to lose this beauty which makes us women feel pretty.
I take it day by day. I trust God or however you decide to call this infinite intelligence behind the creation of the universe. I pray. I hope. I write. I look forward to study art. I smile. I am prepared to fight this. I will have good days and not so good days. The loss of hair is something I am trying to overcome at a mental level. Other than that....I accept this experience with what will come.
You have hive alongside you. :)
Thanks God for it, I mean I went through stuff but these news hit me like a bullet train as I wasn't expecting this right now, when everything seemed to finally work out for me. Somehow there must be hidden gems in this diagnosis that are yet to be revealed to me. Thank you very much for the support and once again Hive proves to be a safe coccoon for me to reach out when I feel I can't go through some stuff on my own.
Hey!! My favourite writer. I am really sorry to hear about your condition.
I know you from your blogs only, not personally.
But I can tell that you can rise above this sh!t too. This is true that nothing like this happened before, but you have overcome with the challenges life presented you with. Like you said miracle happens. Also, the universe is with you on this you can pull it off.
We all are here. I am praying god to give you the strength and courage to face this situation and Win with beautiful smile.
♥️☮️
I appreciate your thoughtful comment and writing will help me out through this as I have a sense of community in here. God bless us all!
Damn girl .... stay strong ... wish you all the best!!!
Yup damn, darn damn thing, freakin damn lol. That's what I said too. Thank you for the support🤗
It was 13 years this August since my tongue cancer diagnosis. Cancer can be beaten! Wishing you a speedy recovery.
Wow congratulations! May God keep you in excellent health! Thank you very much🤗
Greetings @creativemary ,
What a lovely written expression of your thoughts and experiences in this side trip you are being taken on.
If you read Psalms and Proverbs....you will find great encouragement.
...'And the LORD, He it is that doth go before thee; He will be with thee, he will not fail thee, neither forsake thee: fear not, neither be dismayed.' Deuteronomy 31.8
It is faith alone in Christ alone for salvation.
Wishing you all the best.
Bleujay
Amen! I believe that God has a plan for me and this experience was sent for a reason. It will unfold and my soul wants to learn the lesson. Thank you!
I'm so sorry to hear about your diagnosis Mary.
My sister in law was diagnosed with breast cancer around COVID time, it was horrible then that no one could visit her, even her own daughters. Luckily, she got great treatment despite the situation and is fully recovered now.
You're young, and you're strong,both physically and mentally, and you will pull through. You need to have confidence in yourself!
Take care, and hope to see you at another HF.
Thank you for the encouragement! This happens to so many womens yet when it happened to me I was like: no way Jose! But I accept it now and I work on the strenght of my mental attitude. I have won this in my mind. I just need to embrace the phyisical and emotional consequences which will unfold in the upcoming months. I am more than my body and my breasts and my beauty is beyond the phyisical form. Hive Fest was an awesome experience, I do wish to repeat it when the right moment comes.
I am very sorry that you have to face such a difficult situation. All those questions, doubts, and fears are valid, and although I have not been through anything like this, I can imagine 1% of what you must be feeling. I wish with all my heart that you can continue to be the strong girl you have shown yourself to be so far. I was glad to read in your lines that despite this mountain of negative emotions and fear, you are thinking about what to do to improve, to get out of this. This is sure to be another one of those experiences that will make you more empathetic, stronger, and nobler. Although we don't know each other, I send you a big hug and my sincere hope that you will receive the right treatment and that soon this will be just that, an experience.
Thank you very much for your comment. I do believe that I will survive and look at this years from now as being an experience that somehow enriched me as a person.
Stay strong and believe you will beat that basterd.
Thank you for the support🤗
Hello friend
I am very sorry for the results received, I can imagine how devastating it is. The good thing is that you stopped it in time and it can subject you to treatment, that there is a lot of progress and surely in the name of God Almighty it will go well 🙏🙏🙏
I tell you that in my family several have had cancer of different types, but my aunt's story in her cancer overcame that stage, she is in remission, she has been under control for three years and she is healthy, following the instructions of her doctors
The important thing is to do everything in your power, take a positive attitude and attitude above all, decree that you will be in.

Thank you for the prayers and I send the same best wishes for health for your aunt who recovered from cancer and to you and your family!
wow. big news. and thank goodness for chasing your dreams! I wish you the upmost positivity and love in your new journey. It is a lot to be faced with, but I saw a quote that I loved which was something like: Which of Lifes Punishments are not Gifts from God?
It is a reminder that every pain, and every hurdle is an opportunity to shed more layers of wasteful thought and connect with what is ultimate and timeless and unerringly beautiful.

Thank you! I am pursuing my dream while shedding some layers as well! I must see beyond the immediate and trust in a higher force, there is no alternative that could bring solace at this point.

Hi Mary. I'm so sorry for what you're going through, and I understand. Two years ago, I had a mastectomy on my left breast, and they removed five lymph nodes from my arm on that same side. Thank God, everything was clean. I also wondered why they didn't leave my breast, but had to remove everything? Doctors work at their discretion. Thank God, I'm not vain, and today I live well without my breast. The important thing in all of this is to have a lot of faith in God, not lose heart, eat what you're allowed, and not ask, "Why me?" Take things with courage and know that medicine has advanced a lot, and thank God, you acted in time. There's no history of cancer in my family either. I was very scared, but the best thing is to face it hand in hand with God, who performs miracles. You are young, and I assure you that in the name of the Lord, you have many more years in this life. With God, all good things are possible. Continue with your painting, it relaxes and distracts you. Life goes on. I wish you the best. Despite all your fears, I know you'll make it through. A big hug.
My lovely Isabel I feel that I need to congratulate you first for the courage to share your experience with me! We are more than our bodies and as a woman I can feel how it matters for us to have our appearance as we got used to it. You had to have a lot of power to go through a mastectomy and find the resilience to embrace life after that experience. I feel that you talk with power with the wisdom you have gathered from your own life and I thank you for the encouragement from my heart, may God bless us all 🤗
I'm sincerely sad to read that. Stay positive and strong, you'll win the fight for sure.
Thank you!
It takes a lot of courage to share these kinds of things with strangers. I feel for you, and wish you a lot of strength to beat the crap out of that cancer
Yes mma style kind of beating lol. Courage mixed with desperation and crazy optimism in the same time made me the cocktail necessary to make me write about it here. I will share what I will feel that I can share and somehow this will help me and some of the folks who will read me. I see writing as a sort of therapy.Thank you!
Hope it clears up. I use art as a catharsis for when life decides to give me a boot.
You might want to consider this https://www.cypruscollegeofart.com/ . It isn't really taught courses. It's more studio space with youth hostel-style accommodation included in the price. It's really basic but it's really really cheap. The college was founded by a slightly notorious Cypriot artist who only died a few years ago. Many famous artists go there to get away from the BS in their lives. The beach is walkable but the bars and nightlife need a taxi or a bike although people from the place usually go into town en masse.
It's also all ages and you don't really need a portfolio.
Ah art...yes, I have been using art as catharsis too, I actually enrolled to an Art University before finding out that I have cancer. What a luck of fate huh?
I hope it is not only cleared but disappeared and gone and never to return again after I get treatment. But only God knows. Thank you for the support and the link!
Ánimo preciosa, la pelea es peleando.
Lo mejor es como has hecho: una actitud positiva. Véase como una palmera 🌴, que quizás la tempestad la doble, pero no la puede quebrar.
Bendiciones campeona.
Gracias mucho!
Pido para ti mucha fortaleza, tan solo por compartir detalles de ese proceso te hace valiente...
Gracias!
I may not have experienced it personally, but my mom had stage three breast cancer. It wasn't an easy journey since she couldn't have a mastectomy right away, as there were pre-existing illnesses along with it. She had heart thrombosis and goiter. Yet, the Lord had given her 10 more years despite the multiple illnesses! We're rooting for you~!
Seeing a parent going through this can be devastating. So I understand your pain. Thank you for the support!
Our thoughts and prayers are with you 🙏 YOU GOT THIS! ❤️

Thank you for the support from this wonderful community! I advise all ladies from Hive to go and get checked and do a breast ultrasound at least once a year!
Breast cancer is a very serious disease. I am aware of the fact that being affected by such a disease is very harmful to the body. I pray to God that you will have good health and a beautiful life, as well as a good time with your family. Of course, you will be financially well-off.
Thank you for praying for me, I believe in the power of prayer!
You are most welcome thank you
I feel for you deeply... But stay strong ok?
You gonna beat this
I pray to God for strenght, I must remain strong mentally
Amen... Your prayers are answered 🙏
My dear friend... I'm so sad to read this... This is probably what almost every woman is afraid of. My thoughts and my support are with you. Modern medicine has great possibilities and I believe that everything will be solved well. I hug you
Thank you for the words! I sure hope medicine has evolved, I rely on it
Hi Mary. Just dropping by to say that you're amazing, positive and courageous. Thnaks for sharing your story. I'm sure anyone with a lump, will be going to get it checked after reading this, so well done firstly on helping others. Hopefully getting the words down on paper will also be therapeutic for you. Sorry to hear about your Granny and I wish you a speedy and full recovery. Mind yourself ❤️
Thank you for your encouragements! I sure would tell any woman to go and get checked asap, regardless if they feel a lump or not.
I’m rooting for you and sending you strength, love and hope as you navigate this next chapter.❤️🙏
Thank you!
Life sometimes throws things at us that we never expect, but the way you still hold onto your dreams and faith is so inspiring. It makes me think that no matter our age, we should never stop chasing what we love. Sending you prayers and strength—you’re not alone in this fight.
Thank you!
It's a phase in life, but you will overcome it. Stay positive dear.

Thank you and this community already shows me that I am not alone in this mess🤗
Good morning. I loved reading your story. I wouldn't wish moments like these on anyone. To think that you went to fulfill your lifelong dream, to study art, something you had longed for. But you have to have a lot of faith and hope. The important thing is that you went to the doctor in time and you can recover. I have friends who had breast cancer and are healthy today. May God and the Universe guide you. Best wishes.
Thank you for reading my story! It all happened just like one would see on the movies huh? When I finally go and pursue my dream...life gives me a super surprise...I trust God and this community for emotional support🤗
get well soon may god bless you
Thank you!
I will say one thing that you are a beautiful person, your heart is beautiful and you have to face it bravely and strongly and this happiness on your face is my prayer that it will always remain. You are a beautiful person, a flower and your fragrance will always remain and last forever. I pray that you will always be happy and joyful. May Allah grant you health as soon as possible. You will Insha Allah get well and one day you will fly beautifully like butterflies again. May Allah grant you beautiful health. May Allah grant you a long life. That is all I can pray for and the entire hive community prays for you. May Allah grant you health as soon as possible. You have to stay strong. You have to stay strong and by being strong and strong, you can face it and you are fighting and Insha Allah you will be healthy very soon.
Thank you very much for this thoughtful reply! I thank you for the prayer! I know that beauty is beyond the appearance of a woman and yet I realize that I will have to adjust my perception of beauty in the context of this diagnosis. Nothing can take away my smile unless I let it. Your words really made me realize this. Thank you!🤗
Wow amazing ♥️♥️♥️♥️💯💯💯
Beautiful
It is quite a strong and touching story. Everything lined up for you to go to that city, if you won the art contest then you must be sure that you have a lot of talent and now you face a test in which you must have a lot of faith to get through. I know that when we hear the word cancer it gives us a terrible shudder but as long as there is life there is hope, lots of strength and my best vibes.
Yes the universe really wanted me in this town, the alignment of situations is just on point that it also leaves me bewildered. Thank you very much for the support🤗

Both my mother and my girlfriend's mother are going through some similar things at the moment. This life can be strange in this way. A clean family tree. A healthy diet. Even just being a good person. Yet the scariest of events can unfold before us.
I wish you a speedy recovery and life riddled with future explorations into the world of creativity. :)
I send the best wishes to your mom and your girlfriend's mom and thank you for the encouragement!
