My youngest son was getting bounced from specialist to specialist and it wasn’t until his GP sent him for x-rays that his hip pain turned out to be a giant-cell tumor in his hip joint. Luckily, as it turned out, it was not malignant, but was a “first stage” disease that CAN turn into cancer if let go too long. He had surgery to replace his hip joint and hasn’t had any issues since. They’ve even stopped with the follow-ups. He’s still doing fine 22 years later.
I never got to go through my mother’s or grandmother’s things, because they’d gotten rid of everything while they were still alive. There were a few things that I would have liked to remember them by, but it didn’t happen. :(
I’m leaving it up to my kids to get rid of my many “treasures.” I’m sure they won’t mean much to them. Who knows, they might be worth money by the time I’m gone. :P
My books are packed up right now :( but, I will see if I can dig them out.
