All Clear!



The results are in and I am all clear!


My MRI scans of my chest and leg came back and I am NED (no evidence of disease), which is so wonderful, such a relief.  It feels like I'd been holding my breath for a week.  So, no more scans for six months.  I can go back to vacillating between completely forgetting all about cancer and the hypochondriac tendency of wondering if each ache and pain is actually a horrible relapse.


Things have gotten better with my mobility also.  I have actually walked off without my cane several times now.  I have to tell the kids to go run around the house and find out where I left my cane this time.  It's usually propped against the wall in the kitchen or leaning against some clothes in the closet.  I do still need it when I am outside where the ground may be uneven, but indoors, I am good without it.  


I still wear flip-flops nearly all the time but have managed to fit my foot into a ballerina flat on occasion.  Of course, I would wear flip-flops and ballerina flats nearly all the time anyway.  But I do miss being able to wear some high-heels every now and then.  High-heels automatically give you that sexy-girl attitude.  Flip-flops and a cane do not.  In those instances though, I just put on a lower cut blouse and call it a day.
