My Journey

Shrinkage

The doctors came in today and told me that my mass had shrunk by over 50%. Yes, over half : ) and my white blood cell count was high enough that I can be released today instead of sometime next week as was originally planned. I know it’s only one step on my journey but I am so grateful and that I made so much progress in one week. So that vision of the cancer leaving may have been just a vision, but something was left with me a couple of nights ago.

So thank you God (in whatever form I believe in.) I am grateful. I am humbled, in a way, by the love sent my way from the staff here and from my friends and family. I am on my journey as I have expressed but I know now the power of the mind to create and overcome obstacles is palpable.

So Happy New Years to all… And party on tonight.

Let’s keep this post light and fun. It’s a good day for me today and I am eager to get home to some normalcy.

    Could not have had better news. Your attitude and support system are the best medicine. I know. I’m beating breast cancer – diagnosed two years ago this month – and you won’t be the same. You will be better, more evolved and appreciative of the many little things taken for granted. I love your blog and I love the memories of you growing up around the corner from Rebecca and me.

    You and Randy and the boys have become family to us, and we want you to know we are here for you and wish only that you beat this thing and let you know we love you Randy and the boys. We greatly admire the way you have been dealing with this unexpected situation, and want to be there for you all in any way that we can.
