2. congrats, but dont let your guard down, nor your support for cancer research

a lot of people today found out they did have something horribly wrong...

Sorry to be a Debbie Downer, CONGRATS on the news

[tavalon]

19. Absolutely

I've been living with the belief that I had RCC for about 8 weeks. I won't quickly forget that.

May we never take our health for granted.
My mother in law is going thru chemo for Ovarian cancer and it's obviously an awful situation for her. I hope you stay well.

10. Having had a cancer scare myself

I think I know how you feel. Good News!

[tavalon]

20. That makes one of us

My head is still spinning. I know I'm supposed to be thrilled and I've even written it but really I just feel shocky. I've been scared or denying I'm scared for two months now. It crowded out most of the rest. Now I have this vacuum that should be full of joy and thilledness. I guess it soon will be.

32. 2 months.

That's a long time. I had that for a couple of weeks.

It's not really like getting a gift, it's just getting back to normalcy after having something taken away, returned.

I had some rather bizarre and funny things happen. I was in an Oncologist's waiting room and the section of the newspaper laying next to me had the classifieds for cemetery plots for sale. Then I had to have my eye "aspirated". After that was over a couple of kids came up to me and wondered why I had a patch over my eye. I told them I was studying to be a pirate. They told their parents I was "a nice man".

[tavalon]

39. That is funny and bizarre and the fact that it isn't cancer is the only thing that makes it that way

methinks.

[jmondine]

35. I think it takes a while to get out of just plain relief

Our whole household seems to be letting out a big sigh.

[tavalon]

38. And getting back to living

Yay for us!

[Kahuna]

11. Great news!!

Congrats!

[tavalon]

22. Every thing in the last two months has been tainted by the possibility of cancer

I'd love to do __________.(don't forget, you might have cancer) Maybe we can take the kiddo to _________.(unless you have cancer) Rinse, repeat, ad nauseum. And plenty of people telling me not to think about it. Have you ever tried not to think of ___________. Now, I get to have unedited thoughts again! That, and I don't have to die with this.

[JeffR]

23. The relief must be immense.

Savor every minute of it.
:toast:

[tavalon]

25. I think I will once I get past the gobsmacked feeling

And yes, I will have a beer, a gluten free beer mind you, but this is definitely a night for the celebratory alcohol. One of those, "My kidney is okay, let's destroy my liver!" moments. LOL.

[JeffR]

27. If the set-up to the punchline hadn't taken several posts between us

that would be a DUzy. Instead, cheers!

[tavalon]

30. As much as a smart ass as I am, I know there will be other opportunities

Today I will just bask in my aliveness.

[tnlefty]
