Post Scan Update

.........And its a happy one.

Went to clinic yesterday, and the CT Scan shows STABLE DISEASE. Apparently there is no change apart from 1 little nodule on my left lung, which appeared at the scan 1 year ago. Back then it measure 8mm, and a year on it measure 10mm. They reckon it is definately cancer, BUT a very slow growing one - grade 1. They are going to put my scan to an xray meeting in the next couple of weeks to discuss it, as she is a bit perplexed, but probably nothing to be done - certainly not chemo. It MAY be removable but just wait and see.

I had a long discussion about how long things could stay like this, as is stable, as I have been off treatment for a year now - she does not have an answer. She said the last chemo worked so very well for me, and my body is obviously fighting its own fight now keeping it all at bay.

So I am 1 happy lady, and am going off to London on Thursday with a light heart, bring on the champagne. After London, I really am going to have to reign in the spending, and I plan to go on a diet, lose some weight and try some gentle exercise - in other words, give myself a kick up the arse.

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom.
Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints in our hearts, and we are never, ever the same. And sometimes things happen to you that may seem horrible, painful, and unfair at first, but on reflection, you find that without overcoming those obstacles, you would have never reliased your potential, strength, willpower, or heart, Everything happens for a reason, nothing happens by chance or by means of luck. Illness, injury, love, lost moments of true greatness, and sheer stupidity all occur to test the limits of your soul. Without these small tests, whatever they may be, life would be like a smoothly paved, straight, flat road to nowhere. It would be sage and comfortable, but dull and utterly pointless. The people you meet who affect your life, and the success and downfalls you experience, helps to create who you become. Even the bad experiences can be learned from. In fact, they are probably the most poignant and important ones.... Live Laugh Love.
