ABOUT ME

So hubby noticed a lump a few months ago. (I'm told from a reliable source that it's usually the husband who finds them...go figure). So I went in for a mammogram, then a biopsy, then an MRI, then another mammogram and biopsy...and well you get the picture. As of now I am waiting until 12/15/21 to find out what will happen with me. I'll keep you posted.


So, why "kvetching with Marlayne" as a blog name? To kvetch in Yiddish is to complain and I figure in the coming months I'm going to have a lot to whine about and you're all invited to join in!
