Clear Scope!

in Head and Neck Cancer #1

My husband had his first scope since he  finished  radiation tx end of June- happy dance for sure!   Yay!

 We were talking about these past few months; from finding the lump on his neck to all that followed- scans, two surgeries, radiation ( 31).... How scary all of it was.   and now?  Dr appts and scopes every 3 months... We'll take it!  I am just so grateful for so many things!  "Live for today" certainly has a new meaning!

I thank all of you....

    clear scope and blue skies

    Sunshine60,

    The scope knows and now do you “all clear”.  Very good!

    3 months, 90 days, 2160 hours, who’s counting, it is all great.

    You have the right attitude now heal with the same gusto.

    Matt

    Always great news to hear

    when one of our compadres gets the "all clear"....

    The every 3 month Dr. appointments are a relief, that's a fact.  A person gets real tired of looking at their calendar, and there are 4 appointments a week.....

    Less is More!

    Great news! I remember what a relief it was after finishing treatment and not having to get up and go for treatment and all the appointments, especially toward the end when I was feeling so crappy. Now it's every three months and they try to schedule appointments from most of my team all in one day. Marcia and I make a day of it and grab some seafood at Mo's in Baltimore. Getting the "all clear" makes it a celebration meal to boot!

    Continued NED reports, positive thoughts and prayers,

    "T"

    Hi Sunshine

    Very good news indeed, I am very happy for you both. After my second treatment I was being scoped every three months for two years by two different doctors just in case one of them missed something. Keep up the good work

     

    God Bless

    New Beginnings... ~Congrats

    What was once a big deal, now not so much...

    Once things were forgotten, taken for granted, of little thought, now are huge....
