well yesterday was a day of joy for me.. 1st mammo clear and had that port taken out . I am sore today but it did not hurt coming out just felt wierd. Doc was happy for me and mammo, he said I will see you in April just to check on your condition...as of this day in time I dont have a condition I thought, it feels strange not having to run to a doc appointment or make sure I have a time off slip made out for the boss, or get gas for the ole truck to make the journey... IT DOES FEEL GOOOD!!!! Todays only issue is loss of power due to winds in our area and trees, limbs etc down. No power since noon wednesday.
Have a great day sisters, hugs and best of wishes to you. Linda

    Good for you!
    I've been waiting to see how you did on the mammo!! Hip hip hooray!! And the port out, too!! I know what you mean about not having to go to doc appointments, etc. It feels really weird for a while but then you get back to your "new" normal way of life.

    BTW, I live down state and totally know about the winds we've been having. Sorry about no power...that really is a bummer!

    Have a great day!!

    Love, Patti

    Hi Linda
    I am very happy for you! It is kinda a strange feeling when it's "over" isn't it! I see my onc every 3 months now, and I'm likin it. Starting to find the new "normal" as they say. Not so sure about "normal" but finding "me" again is proving to be quite a journey. God bless..alison

    Linda .. This is what I call 'getting back to normal"
    we wake up ready to take on the day, within minutes we realize that we have no doctor's appointments, or scans .. what no chemo or rad's. It feels werid, not normal. In time you will enjoy that tea or first cup of coffee while reading the newspaper or watching your local news channel. Then you get up, get dressed and take on your day - hap hap happy.

    Congratulations and welcome back to 'normal'. Enjoy!~

    Way to go Linda! If I'm reading between the lines correctly I think I'm directly across the state from you. It so refreshing to hear the "good news" at the end of a treacherous journey. I've yet to get started with my TC chemo and the joy that followes and love reading the happy tales I have to look forward to :)

    May you continue CLEAR and kicking tushies!!

    Blessings and hugs,
    Stace
