She Shoots She Scores!

No atypical cells! That's what the pathology report read...happy day! Dr. Bahador said that I'm healing nicely and am on course. He said my feeling extremely tired is about healing from major surgery and to be expected. Freddie measured 13.5 cm which is about the size of a pregnancy at four months. Who knew! The human body, the temple of the soul -- how amazing it is.

On July 7th, 2010 I will have been three years "cancer free". When you get passed the five year mark you are considered "cured". Right now the doctor is planning on releasing me to return to work on July 7th, work from home the first week and then jump back into the office life after that. Until then the focus is on healing the body...you only get one chance to do this right.

Such good news and I really feel that the surgeries and illness are behind me -- I can't tell you how peaceful and grateful that makes me feel. So when you're out there in life this week would you think of me when you celebrate...and give yourselves a huge big hug because life and you are so much more precious than we know.

PS I'm reading a great book by Thomas Moore, "Care of the Soul in Medicine" and I quote, "Spirituality always involves some kind of transcending of limitations and challenges. You find more strength than you knew you had. You don't succumb to resignation and cynicism. You go beyond your narcissism or your worry about yourself. You arrive at peace with your fate..."
