The first one is the hardest to wait for but then - like everything else - you get into the routine. I'm not going to say try not to think about it because that's not realistic, but just know it's part of our shared experiences here and that everyone is sending more positive energy your way.
Don't forget that false positives are common, Jack had 2 scans that showed areas lighting up that turned out to be just persistent swelling - 3rd one was finally all clear. You'll get through this.
