365 Days and Counting

Just one year ago today,
That dreaded call came in.
Your test results are back,
You have cancer, said Dr Kim.

Alone at home, unprepared.
There was no time to cry.
How to tell Jeff? the kids?
No sense in asking my God why?

A song burst forth from my heart,
With aching in my gut,
That this is gonna be
The best day of my life, say what?

Scads of scans had to be read,
My green "bust" formed and cast,
While friends and family prayed,
And days so very slowly passed.

To Hawaii just in time,
Where salt water heals.
Treatment starts at Christmas.
Can you imagine how that feels?

This journey of mine has had,
So many ups and downs.
He who holds my future,
Gently carried me through the rounds.

Happy anniversary,
From this blogs' history.
Adversity is rough,
But can inspire you and me.


Thank you for joining me on this journey, I hope you have been inspired.
Currently I remain cancer free and infection free although on preventative antibiotics and anti fungals, which my insurance is still refusing to pay for. Ironically, if I get a fungus again, I can count on them to cover the real expensive stuff.
Updates will continue and your comments are a blessing.
Yes, I have cancer, but life trumps cancer every time!
