“Did they think it might be…, you know…, cancer?”
Tina nodded, “yeah…, my mother and grandmother both had breast cancer, so for me there is a higher risk…, I was pretty young to have such a big tumour which is why I had to go through a lot of tests at the time, and it’s also why I had to be very cautious recently when I found the lump…”
“Did you cope with it? Was there anybody there to support you?”
Tina looked intently at Bette, her heart was melting at the concern so plainly written across Bette’s face. This was something that happened in Tina’s life over five years ago and yet Bette was concerned for her well being. “I had to cope Bette…, my parents were there and Eric was kind of ‘around’, but didn’t provide the emotional support that I needed…”
“Did your parents support you?”
“As much as they could, but it was a shock to them that I had this…, ‘tumour’ growing in my chest and I was young…, it scared them…”
“I can imagine…, how did you cope with it T…?” Bette sighed, “I wish I was there for you…”
“I had counselling…, I had someone who was trained to talk about it, even though it wasn’t cancer and it was just this benign growth that appeared, the fact of the possibility was a lot to cope with emotionally…, I think recently…, even though it was a small lump…, it scared me more…”
“Tina you should have told me…” Bette said as she moved closer to Tina, touching her face, kissing her hand, leaning forward and kissing her lips in an almost desperate clinch.
“Bette…, baby we’ve been over this already…, it was something that I was already going through when we met…, it wasn’t something that was an easy thing to bring into a conversation…”
“I’d have listened T…, you could have told me…”
“It doesn’t scare you that I’ve got these scars? That I have this risk hanging over me?”
“Of course it scares me…, It scares me that you had to go through all that without anyone around you…”
“I got through it Bette…”
Bette felt her emotions catching her, she didn’t ever want Tina to go through those things alone, she held Tina’s hand, linking their fingers as her thumb stroked the back of her hand, “I know but I would have been there for you T…, I would have been there to hold your hand and hold you before, after, whenever…, I’d have listened when you wanted to talk, held you when you wanted to cry…”
Tina wrapped her arms around Bette, holding her close, as close as she would have done if Bette was around when she had to cope with it all, but she was here now, and nothing felt better than the feeling of Bette and her arms around her.
“I know you would…, thank you…” Tina whispered in Bette’s ear.
“I’m glad you told me…, that we talked about it…” Bette said, knowing in some ways that she hadn’t given Tina much option by asking directly about the scar, but Tina has been open, she was willing to tell Bette and she was grateful for that.
“Me too…”
“You wanna…,” Bette smiled a mischievous smile and nodded towards the bathroom, “think we should take a shower?”
Tina smiled as she stroked Bette’s face, “you going to play Dr Porter…, check out all my scars?”
“Are there more to find?”
“There might be…, just old hockey injuries…”
“Oh well, in that case…, I have this cute little outfit I could wear…”
“Shower Bette…, naked…”

Great chapter. Love their connections. Hope you feel better soon. Thanks for sharing your talent with us. PPS
That was sweet, Jo. All that lovely caring.
Hope you feel better soon. This was an amazing chapter and story. Thank you for this wonderful story. :)
Get well soon, Jo. Hope you’re on the mend. I will however, enjoy anything you write while you’re off. :)
I hope you feel better too…. but I’m happy we get to reap the rewards :)
Well whatever you’ve got Jo it certainly didn’t affect your creativity! Wonderful update…hope you feel better soon!
Hello there, dear sweet Jo!:)) Hope you get well soon. Just follow the doc’s instructions, sweetie. As for the story, we just caught up with it. We held our breathe on the previous chapter and on this one, we enjoyed their honesty, communication and the aftermath satisfaction that both shared. Indeed it was a beautiful and endearing. Thanks for sharing such an inspiring update. PPS Hugs & kisses on both your cheeks. – Lucero & Marsha (Proud Salsa Aunties to the ever loving JC and Eunichick and Tias Adoradas to Patpez)
Don’t you just love Bette. PPS
Jobadge, thanks so much for writing even though you are not feeling quite up to par. Hope you are feeling and doing much better very soon. You do write “our girls” so ver well with such loving care and devotion. It’s as though you drape them over your own countenance and write them from the inside out, you feel them and know them so intimately and you convey it all to us. thanks again for continuing to write about our girls so lovingly. Post when you can.
Hope that you are feeling better. Cancer always scares people and it should. Tina was there for Bette when Lily was so ill and passed on. Maybe deep down Bette realizes how close she came to never having the privilege of knowing her soul mate.
Glad they talk and open up to each other, that was wonderful. Please post more, thanks!
Mate though being off work is always great… I’m sorry to hear you’re home because of your health. I hope you feel better soon! On to the story… what more can I say that I haven’t told you when you write these amazing chapters. “Stay home” days do rock!! xoxo
Bette would have been there for her, in every possible way she could. Lovely morning after scene Jo, thank you!

‘have some health stuff going on at the moment and am off work’ – feel better! (hope its not a disease of your writing fingers!… ;-)
Hope you feel better! what a great chapter….those two..yummy
Hope your feeling ok. Now on to the story, sis someone say shower??? and I’m glad they talked about that. PPS:)
Sorry to hear that you’re under the weather. Just stare at THAT JB photo and the boo boo will be all gone. There’s nothing quite like the exhaustion and exhiliration of an all nighter w/the one you love. ;-)

Hope you on the mend Jo, the story was sweet as always. If there is any energy left Dr. Porter and Tina will have a good shower, if not it will be relaxing. Hey who’s going to clean up that mess, HEHEHEHE. Thank you, Md aka Oma
