I Humbly Thank You

Thank you for all of the prayers, all of the positive thoughts, and all of the love. I am the luckiest girl in the world! I'm trying to get used to the thought of freedom for the next 90 days. What a great gift!

I slept for nine hours last night, and for the first time in months and months, I didn't wake up once throughout the night.

Finally, I can rest assured that the pain, heat and odd tingling is all part of the healing process. Yesterday, during the neuro-testing, I accidentally started crying, I was so relieved from the clean MRI.

I'm incredibly grateful for every moment of good health. To my friends and family - and the anonymous friends that I've never met, thank you for rooting for me! I want to do everything I can to be healthy and happy, and so far it's working. Thank you for all of the support and kindness, I couldn't be as successful without it.

I humbly thank you. Truly.

No New Growth!

I'm exhausted. Monday, I conquered a battery of neuro-tests. Today, I woke at the crack of dawn, was poked and prodded for an IV, finished the MRI, and had the results of the scans. No new growth! Woo hoo!!! During the radiologist oncology appointment the doctor noticed multiple occasions of erratic twitching on the left side of my face. He said that it could be a small seizure. If the twitching doesn't go away in the next 10 days they want me to follow up with a EEG.

After the rad onc meeting, I had just enough time for lunch, and then back to testing for the rest of the day.

The stress of the past few weeks has been hard. I've been doing the old, foot in front of the other trick. Finally, I have 90 days of freedom.

It still hasn't completely sunk in that I'm clean and recovering nicely without any visible tumor growth. I'm going to need to decompress for a while.
