Biopsy survived + some knitting 

First off, I would like to thank all the people who sent me good wishes in the comments or by e-mail. Thank you so much, it is supportive to know that someone think of me.
The biopsy was quite painful, but not unbearable. Afterwards, I was a little ashamed that I did not really behave like a hero.... I was trembling like a leaf and could not help showing my fear. Just imagining that they are going to drill your bone and sucking out your marrow....AAAARGH! Just thinking about it made me die with fear.
But now I am here, quite exhausted and with some pain, but I am still alive.
I will get the results just in three weeks, but the doctor told me he is sure he can exclude cancer. This is positive. The bad new ist that I probably suffer from essential thrombocythemia, a chronical desease. You cannot heal it, but you can live with it.

Well, enough bad news. Let's talk about knitting!

Yesterday, after my visit to the doctor's, I had some time to rest and knit, so I made some progress with my second chickami:


I decided to add some white, too. The next green stripe will be much larger.
And have a look here:

My knitting has become much more even. Did I tell you already? I have learnt another method to hold the yarn and now I have a better tension.

My husband also made a progress with the cat blanket:



And now a quiz:
