I saw my doctor today. I haven't posted anything about it but last fall it was discovered I had early stage small cell cancer in my left lung. After some pretty aggressive treatment during September - December, I'm officially in remission! That was the expectation, but still, I didn't want to constantly field questions while undergoing treatment.
I go back to work in February. It will be nice to see everyone again. In the meantime, I'm still regaining strength and stamina. It will be awhile before I have hair again too. The photo on my blog is with my wig. It's good to have, but I'll be glad to no longer have to wear it.
Celebrate your good health!
Many congratulations on the good health news! Here's to you staying healthy and happy!
