I just found out I might be really sick (or maybe just a little sick)

6. You don't know until you know

if it could be less serious, then, well, it could be less serious.

I'd just wait and see. Don't assume the worst, don't assume anything.

I had a greatly enlarged appendix that they only caught because I was retiring from the Army and they were checking out my bad left hip for disability purposes.

Could have been cancer, could have just been benign.

Turns out, benign. Colonoscopy clean as a whistle, examination of the appendix after they took it out also clean as a whistle.

so all good. Even if it's cancer, tons of treatment options these days.
