The year was 2012- the diagnoses NOT GOOD

I still do not want to write, talk, or even think about it.   I now think in order to move forward this is something I need to do.
It has now been three years since my diagnoses of cancer.  I so want to write the "c" word but I think it is important to actually use the word Cancer.
so here goes:

June looks pretty peaceful, just a few hair appointments.  The reason for that is, I was in the hospital.  What doctor's thought was pneumonia was actually lung cancer.  I had to be flown to Seattle for a emergence operation of inserting a tube so I could breath. 
 When July rolled in, the calendar looked a lot different.  In between those marks on the calendar, I slept.
            A typical appointment card

I am in my 7th month of going my first full year with no appointments.  My next test's will be in November.
I admire those that can talk about their experience of going through their treatments.  I am trying, I just shut down and am still not open.  So I hope this helps.

  2. Congratulations, Nonie! This clearly is traumatic for you and that's Ok. It was a life threatening ride and it must be so hard to put that into words. I admire the courage you find to face your challenges. The words will come when you are ready. Big hugs, Bunny
