So 2019 is almost over...

And my medical magical mystery tour is behind me.  (You might be too young to get that reference!)

My PET scan showed a funny thing on my thyroid and in my stomach and colon  I mentioned that before.  I did have a thyroid ultrasound and a colonoscopy and endoscopy (propofol nap!!).  Everything is fine.  So today, at last, I had Frank removed.  It's definitely a sign that the whole thing is over.


I'm happy the yuk is behind me.  I'm happy I'm feeling like myself again.  I'm also aware that lymphoma is a "remission" cancer, not a "cancer free" cancer.  I'm pretty sure no doctor would explain it that way. HAHA   I still go every two months for a shot, and will be doing that until some time in 2021, according to the plan.  So that could change.  And I will be hoping that this remission lasts a good long time. Decades would be good.

Just a breast MRI left on Dec. 30 to finish out my year.  That's not fun, but also not awful, and I'm really not worried about that.  Just need to get it done.

So now we can all focus on what's really important...Christmas, a big family Disney trip in January, and Tim and Danielle's wedding in 2021!


Now if only my hair would magically straighten out to the way it was before!!
