“It’s A Tumor”

Hubby would always say, “It’s a tumor!” when I was pregnant; it was a cute inside joke between the two of us. Jump to me a week overdue, very large, very miserable, and very much over people (who knew me and knew better) asking if was having twins. I ran into an old friend in the grocery store, as we stood chatting, a random woman I didn’t know started rubbing my stomach, asking when I was due.
I looked her in the eye and said, “I’m not pregnant, I have a very large tumor, and they are finally able to remove it next week.” She was shocked and mortified! She stammered out an apology and quickly walked away. My friend thought it was hilarious, and hopefully, that woman learned something about touching strangers without asking.
