Family and Fantastic News

I thought I would do something a little different 

and post some pictures.

Usually most of my pictures go on my private family blog,

but I am in love with the way these pictures turned out,

 so I wanted to share them.

I also wanted to share some fantastic news.

I had an MRI a few weeks ago in preparation for surgery 

and to make sure there are still no signs of cancer.

Results:

No interval change compared to 10/14/2015

 BENIGN FINDINGS: Routine follow up recommended.

AND

Last week I had a follow-up ultrasound of my thyroid.

I meet with the doctor today.

Results:

Heterogeneous left thyroid lobe nodule, unchanged. This has

been biopsied previously. No significant interval change.

I can finally breath again.

I don't think I will ever be able to put into words the worry, stress and anxiety 

I experience with every aspect of having tests done.

Waiting for the appointment day to get here;

Being in the actual room having the procedure done;

And then the waiting.

I really try not to worry but ultimately I do - a lot.

But for now everything is stable and there is no evidence of disease.

I am more thankful and grateful than I could ever express.
