I'm adding these pictures so you can see our kitchen makeover...2 of the new and one of the old...but that's not the great news...keep reading!
Yes, it's been a while and I hope this finds all of you well. It's been about 3 1/2 weeks since I finished up with my Radiation and I cannot complain at all! So much to be thankful for this year, especially with Thanksgiving right around the corner! Wow, this year has just FLOWN by, quicker than most for us!
Today I got results from a genetic test (BRAC analysis) and the results were NEGATIVE!! This is huge...my GYN suggested I have the test done since I've had Breast Cancer and I'm under 50 years old. Even though I don't have daughters, if the results were positive, it could affect my sister and Mom. Anyway, the tests shows if there is a genetic predisposition for cancer and if there'd be a chance for me to get ovarian or uterine cancer down the road. I was so relieved to hear that the results were negative, awesome, awesome, awesome!
Dave also had his 3-month CT scan today and everything looks GOOD!!! Thank God! Again, if you were to tell me a year ago of everything we would be going through, I would have said, "No WAY"...but I look back on it all and know that there's absolutely no way I could have made it through without God's grace and the support of all of you out there.
It's been interesting the last few weeks, getting out life back to a new "normal". I'm feeling better, more energetic, still sore and tight on my right side which I think I just need to accept that as how it'll be, but trying to get back to a life without cancer. One day at a time is still my mantra, focusing on my family and trying to get into a routine. It was actually easier for me to be disciplined and better organized when I was going through treatment, but don't worry, I'll get it figured out! I'm SO happy to have cancer behind me and look towards the future!
