3 Month Check Up with Medical Oncology

 3 month check up with the medical oncologist today. No signs of breast cancer! Normal tumor markers, normal pathology, stable CT chest/abdomen/pelvis. 


There is no greater relief than a stay of execution. Living with a recent cancer diagnosis feels like you have an expiration date - we all do, though mine feels a little closer now. But it remains far enough away, nebulous in its exact time, and that’s all I can ask for - time. 

So much gratitude for my family and friends and their support during these difficult few months. It’s like a roller coaster you didn’t ask to get on, and that you can’t get off. @beewood17thanks for holding my hand every second.
