On Tuesday I saw my neurologist for a surgical follow up visit. I was released from all restrictions. Pathology and post-surgical scans show that it was a tumor from 2021 that had been treated with gamma knife that started growing again. There was cancer and necrosis. The necrosis was removed. Most of the cancer was removed but I will have gamma knife as soon as possible on the margins to make sure we got it all. I’m waiting for Radiation Oncology to call and schedule it.
Yesterday I was in St Louis and today I am heading to Chicago to choose a granite slab for my kitchen. My ability to keep going doesn’t mean I am strong or positive or a good person. Cancer doesn’t make me any of those things. I’m an extremely flawed human who is grateful for today, hopeful for tomorrow, and trusting that God will still help me become the person I’m meant to be.
