The situation can be anything from overspending on shoes to more complex issues in relationships. The thing is, sometimes without a bit of distance from an issue, well- I can react almost on autopilot, justifying my actions based on what felt best at the time. And since I am hotheaded and sensitive (along with the contrasting qualities of being thoughtful and decisive) I call one of the people who knows me best to help talk me through it.

I am having some doubts about pausing my surgery. There are good reasons for holding off-- namely the timing of the recovery, as well as just being a bit freaked out about the whole thing in general. But I keep reviewing my stats-- thinking about the reasons I opted for the surgery in the first place. As the time for another mammogram, breast exam and MRI loom, I am shocked by my clear- minded response:
You don't have to do this.
I could get the mastectomy and be done with it all.
