" As far as being nervous waiting for results, I am almost terrified waiting for mine, so I can't say "don't worry." Most of us do.

Even though very few know the terror that comes with each re-check, likewise, very few are privy to that unbridled elation that comes with the "all clear". We live an existence of extremes and are fully immersed in the appreciation and celebration of having another day. Not to say that I don't have my "down" times but when all is totaled I put it in the "plus" column.
