Yesterday, my appointment with the oncologist was very encouraging. I am now in remission, which is the absence of active disease with or without the possibility of return.
Needless to say I am thrilled and thankful, and my family is very happy with the news. I can only say thank you to everyone who has prayed, supported, cooked, driven, encouraged, hugged, thought about, sat with, visited, filled in for, befriended, loved, or cared! It has been an amazing 6 months. I have learned so much, and know that the truly important "things" aren't "things" at all.
The next step will be careful monitoring and surveillance with blood tests, exams and scans. As always, I will keep everyone informed.
Thank you again for being important to me! Till next time :-) Bets
