The PET Scan was clear!!!!!! Sadly I was counting chickens before they hatched yesterday and discovered I still have one more PET in a year. Rather than dwelling on that though I'm choosing to do a happy dance about the PET results.
I started this blog in 2009, after I had been diagnosed with a rare cancer, to keep family and friends informed of my progress. After finishing treatment and being diagnosed cured I didn't know what to do with this space, I did know I wasn't going to just delete it. So follow me now as I find my voice.

National Cancer Survivor's Day!
So I'm a couple days late with this but HAPPY NATIONAL CANCER SURVIVOR'S DAY!
Today I celebrated by working out, taking Baby Chang to the pool and eating a bowl of chocolate ice cream. Today was a day like most other summer days in our house. Which in my opinion is the best way to celebrate being a survivor.
Though I'm not cured officially I am close. Yet, cancer is a part of my daily life. It is why I am trying to workout more and eat healthier everyday. It is why I blow my nose more than the average person. It is why when Baby Chang sees me changing clothes she points out my second belly button. It is why whenever I hear of someone being diagnosed a part of my heart breaks for them.
So on National Cancer Survivor's Day I will be grateful for all of those things. I will be grateful that I got to celebrate Baby Chang's 5th Birthday and plan to see many more. I will be grateful that I was here to see Prairie Dad make his debut at two Houston theaters. I will be grateful that in two weeks I will be vacationing with my family in North Carolina. I will be grateful that I don't know where I want to be in five years but I actually get to figure it out.
So to all of the SURVIVORS be grateful and celebrate the best way you know how! Perhaps I will have a second bowl of ice cream...
