Hi Sunshine,

I'm sorry that happened to you. I can totally relate! I have been feeling my lymph nodes for days and wondering if I have cancer. I would normally have gone to the dr. by now but I'm embarrassed because about 6 months ago I made a fool of myself going to the dr. 5 times telling them to check me for cancer. Now the scary part is that my husband has told me that I "usually" have bad breath! How much does that suck??!! Now I have to be anxious about whether my breath is bad... not to mention chronic halitosis can be a sign of a serious disease. So the other day, I came across a little magazine blurb explaining an easy way to test your own breath (lick the inside of your wrist, wait 4 seconds and then smell it) and it hasn't smelled too bad to me most times I check, so that's been a relief. I started flossing more regularly and I think that has helped. (I'm picturing you all reading this and then licking your wrists and it's making me giggle...;-)

Hugs, Sunshine. Love yourself. You deserve good things.
