On the morning of March 27th my whole life came to a screeching halt. I sat at my kitchen table with my laptop in que waiting for my endocrinologist to join me for a follow up call. I had some test done in February and I sat hopeful and optimistic about my future, but I also prepared for the worse. The time came and the conversation lasted only 10 minutes. Those10 minutes were the longest 10 minutes of my life because after the first minute and a half I wanted to slam the laptop shut run upstairs and get back into bed but instead I sat there fighting tears.
