The day arrived for Kelly's biopsy. Edward was staying cool, calm and collected. Kelly was nervous as she registered with an unfriendly nurse. During the biopsy, the young physician poked her left breast repeatedly, complaining that it was difficult for her to get a good tissue sample. Finally, the biopsy concluded and Kelly eyed the four pieces of her breast tissue that the doctor had slipped into separate vials. Kelly tried to fool herself that she wanted a bad diagnosis to see how she'd react to such adversity. But on the way home, she ended that fantasy and prayed for a diagnosis of no cancer.
