Finally i can find the time and energy to give you another update about the test results i got last Wednesday. The tumor is completely removed, and the cancer hasn't spread! So that's very very good news! The tumor was a very nasty one, and 1.8 cm big, so i do need chemotherapy. Next Wednesday i've got another appointment at the hospital to talk about that treatment with the internist-oncologist.
Somehow i don't feel very relieved just jet that the cancer hasn't spread. My mind is already busy thinking about the next step to fight this disease... to say i'm not looking forward to the chemo is the biggest understatement in the history of the human race!! But i know it is necessary, and hopefully i can find the strength to go through it!
But for now it's still recovery time for me... i've got to focus on getting my strength and health back, because i'm still weak and tired from the surgery. I started today with some relaxation exercises, because my shoulders and torso are still very tense. Man, i looked like a very old women when i tried the first few moves... i laughed and cried at the same time, i felt so clumsy and out of shape! Ah well, it will get better by the day!
And this day was not a bad one! Marsha came to visit, and brought me a lovely My Minds Eye paper kit and the very cute Maya Road kraft envelopes!
I'm thinking of doing a Christmas album like Ali's this year... i love projects like these, especially at the Holiday season, and the thought of creating it makes me happy already! And this will be a very memorable December month for me and my family, and i think it's a very good idea to capture as much of it on paper as i can. So, this paper kit will be perfect for it! With some older matching X-mas paper from my stash (yes, and maybe some new stuff, if i can make it to the SB store... i would love to do a little shopping in the nearby future...) it will make the perfect base for a nice album!
The rest of my day was good too: i've got my appetite back, and was able to eat a bunch of healthy things, i went for a little walk, enjoyed my new Sting cd again, had a good nap after lunch, visited my dear fiend Mari, and now i'm sitting cozy in my studio typing this post and listening to the Diva Craft Lounge! And i'm enjoying myself... and feeling normal for a while! And that's very nice!
Well, i'm off now... maybe i can find some materials in my stash that i can use for the Christmas album cover! Feel free to leave a comment! I love to hear from you!
