Holy Cadoodle

Holy cadoodle, do I feel fine Bout as happy as I can be Just found out the lump on my back Was a benign type of cyst you see Worried as the biopsy was sent to the lab Fearing the worst as humans do Didn't sleep well for 2 or 3 weeks But happy my wishes came true So no need to hold my breath any longer I'm good for another while yet Till the next scary thing that comes along I'll be just as freaked out, I bet It's the way us humans are or so it seems We tend to think the worst most times It's probably the way we protect ourselves So if the news is bad, we're primed Whatever's the case I can safely say Good news is sure great to hear When you're thinking maybe this is it And now you've got a few more years So holy cadoodle, it sure feels great To be told it isn't the end Live every moment as if it's your last 'Cause one day it will be, my friend!

Ah, I'm so glad to hear your news, Jack. Yes, we do tend to "awfulize" when we something amiss. I know that feeling. Glad you are "benign," my friend.

What a relief it was! The longer we live the more chance of stuff we go through! Just fortunate I've made it through this far!
