Today is the day

Today is the day that I begin my journey to becoming cancer free! After what felt like months of tests, I am finally able to stop cancer from having the upper hand.  I am feeling very at peace about everything, calm even -- and I haven't even taken xanax yet.  :)

Thank you to everyone who has sent a message in the last day or so.  Sorry that I haven't been able to respond to everyone.  I appreciate and am so thankful to be surrounded by all of your love and support.

xoxo

Look out cancer -- I'm coming for you!

Two things that made me very happy today:

First, I received the exciting news that my surgery has been scheduled for next Wednesday!  I know the doctor's schedule was pretty tight before the holidays.  I am very grateful that they were able to schedule it this year -- I did not want to agonize about surgery over my holiday break.  I am ready to make some strides forward and get this cancer out of me!

Secondly, the CTA Holiday train started zipping by my office on the brown line.  This is honestly one of my favorite things about the holidays.  I hope to sneak out of the office tomorrow afternoon to catch a ride around the loop.
