Hello Friends!
I hardly post here, but I do come back and connect with all you occasionally. It feels good to remember there are others who understand what I am going through. Getting ready to return to work from occurrence #6, surgery, rad and chemo. They found it in one lymph node near my thyroid. After recovery from surgery i had 25x of rad and 7x chemo. Well I ever be rid of this? I am starting to feel like a permanent patient, always waiting for the next occurrence to pop up. This time I spent 7 weeks in NYC getting treated at Beth Israel Hospital. I was able to stay at Hope Lodge (run by the American Cancer Society), and I gotta tell you the staff and other residents were awesome!

I don't know how to feel anymore honestly, I am happy to have made it through again, but how do I find real joy again when all I do is survive treatments, or wait for it to pop up again?

thanks for listening!
Gina
