My 20yo niece told our family yesterday that she has an appointment today to see a surgeon. She found a lump and they are telling her for sure it is not a cyst. That's all we know at this point. This is SO scary! Praying it is a fatty tumor (which they said was a possibility) or whatever it needs to be to NOT BE CANCER. We are all very close and I think of her as my own.
Thank you
**Update**
The doctor said it looks like a fatty tumor (DN's words). There is a long medical term for it but DN couldn't remember the name. She will have it removed next Thursday because they said it needs to come out. Thank you so much for your prayers and thoughts!

Hopes for nothing serious. Odds are in her favor, though, at her age. I have a friend who always had what they called "lumpy breasts," even from her late teens on. She was constantly being tested and called back. Scared her a lot. hopefully your niece has something innocuos.

That would be terrifying at any age. I'm saying a prayer for a great outcome.

I'm in a similar boat right now, my surgery is Friday. Please let her know that I am praying specifically for her "thing" to be safely evicted and well-behaved!!
