Wow! I can't believe I haven't posted here in over a year. It's been nearly 2 yrs since I finished all of my treatments. I continue to see my oncologist every 3-4 months...appointment coming up next week. All has been going good. I still feel tired and I get antsy at the smallest things (you know, get a headache and your mind automatically wanders into the what if it's brain cancer.) I did have a little scare with some massive headaches one night. They were so bad that I was hyperventilating and when to ER. A ct was done and I was found to have a brain but no cancer :)
For the most part, I do think about it but I don't dwell on it and my conversations don't always center around it. I don't participate in a lot of cancer stuff...just preferring to serve the Lord and focusing on Him. I hope one day that I can get into helping other cancer patients but I needed time away from it after having it meet me at every corner for a year and a half. I think when it's in your face for so long you just want to get back to normal.
If you've read my blog, you know that my mom was diagnosed as well...she is also doing good. She did not have to go through the chemo so that was a good thing. She needed a little pushing to go through with things but all in all, after the normal reactions of being scared, denial, etc., she came around and went through her radiation treatments like a trooper.
I will leave the blog up just in case someone finds it during their own path down this terrible road. I am hopeful that it helps others understand their choices and feelings a little better and know that they are not alone in this fight. I hope it is an encouragement.
For those who sent comments here, I apologize for never responding. They were quite old when I saw them as I didn't check the site very often.
Love to all
