HAPPY FREAKING NEW YEAR!!!

I feel like I can finally ring in a NEW year and breathe a little easier...at least for the next 6 months!  Today I had my 6 month follow up mammogram and appointment with Dr. Torstensen.  This appointment has been on my radar for a long time- scanxiety is no joke.  We woke up to a snow squall warning-I HATE winter driving- so that added to my morning concern.  I was only almost hit once.  Check in was fast and before long I was back in gowned waiting.  The new gowns were a horrible camel color that looks good on no one (surely ordered by a man). Today my mammogram technician told me that mammograms after surgery are more painful and I can confirm, she is correct.  She took about 453 images on both breasts, which is good I guess. Then I waited for the radiologist to look things over....while I waited I thought to myself- if something comes back at least I know what to expect, I'm a pro.  And then the tech came back and told me they wanted to do an...

I'm BACK!

 I am EXCITED to go to work tomorrow!  When is the last time I've said that!?!  I do love my job, I can't imagine doing anything else, BUT I can't remember the last time I was actually EXCITED about going!  (I REALLY like not working.) Dr. Massey gave the okay to return to normal activity. This morning I rowed for about 15 minutes, and this afternoon I visited the chiropractor. So, where is the giddiness coming from?  I think maybe I'm feeling like all of this is finally over!  Yes, I will have follow-up appointments for the rest of my life, but I think I'm feeling like I'm FINALLY officially on the other side! I'm feeling good, last Friday was a crummy day, and it freaked me out.  I've given myself some pep talks- I DO have sick days I can use if I need to.  I HAVE gone to school feeling less than perfect.   Now, as I said, I LOVE NOT WORKING!  I'm not someone who ever gets bored, and I found plenty to do while recovering. I read 9...

1 YEAR!

Happy Cancerversary to ME!  Did I just make myself a new holiday? You bet I did!  Did I even take a personal day to "celebrate" said holiday? Absolutely! I put in for this personal day MONTHS ago, not knowing how I would feel about this date.  I thought about how I wanted to spend the day, but I couldn't make any decisions until about 2 weeks ago.  Would I want to spend the day doing something? Being with people? Wallowing on my couch? I knew I didn't want it to be anticlimactic as sometimes New Year's Eve's of the past were (aside from the NYE weddings- those kicked ass) or my birthday sometimes is.  I planned the whole thing out, and so far, it has not disappointed!  Replaying April and May, and looking at the appointments on the calendar has been a weird trip.  Constantly on my mind, I've been thinking about how scared I was.  Mammogram on March 29, biopsy on April 8, phone call at 3:10PM on April 10 and then not knowing anything.  And the...
