Too early in the day to crack open the Moet?
My GPs office called to say that the scans hadn't shown up any more tumours so YAY to that! A little bit relieved, yes indeed! They asked me to come in next week. I can only assume that the ultrasound is showing some radiation damage in my right boob which, in the scheme of things, is the least of my worries, I was always prepared for that.
The stress of the last nine days has caught up with me. I feel like curling up and taking a month long nap. The thought of cancer returning just six months after chemo really shocked me. New Year's Day was the first time I felt that my cancer could be stronger than me. It was the first time that I entertained the possibility of losing the battle and not seeing my boys grow up. And that was suffocating. That must sound silly and overly dramatic.
Anyway, for the moment I can stop worrying and for that I am grateful.
I'll be able to relax and enjoy my birthday this weekend without another cancer diagnosis weighing on my mind.
Thank you for every comment, email and text message of support.
Feeling so very loved gave me courage.
Much Love
