I went to the doctor today for the results of the CT scan done 2 weeks ago. The results were the same as three months ago: no cancer. Im breathing a big sigh of relief. I realize now that no matter how level headed I have been through all of this, it has been on my mind much more than I would like. I found myself making plans for how I would handle it if the cancer was back. I had to stop and find something else to think about. I kept busy doing things that give me joy while I waited. Even this morning I went to the Wild Animal Park instead of sitting around waiting for the appointment.
I don't see the doc until September 27th. And I don't need a CT scan next time. That tells me that we are out of the acute phase of treatment.
At this point I feel that I can go back to the life I knew. But it will be a life more appreciated, and also sober, knowing that others are not receiving this news. As I left the doctor's office, I looked down the hall to the chemo room and saw a woman in a bed receiving chemotherapy. Just 3 months ago, that was me. Not every one wins when they must dance with cancer. I shall be forever grateful to all those who have chosen to help bring about the cure that I am living with. This includes the doctors and nurses, the researchers and those that raise money for research.
And to all those who prayed for me, thank you for asking for a miracle for me. God heard your prayers.
