one tough cookie

I'm channeling my inner cookie, and i would like to think that I am one tough cookie :o). Of course, it has to be chocolate chip because they're my favorite. And preferably served with milk :o). And to celebrate my good news, I made chocolate chip cookies yesterday.

See... this past week has had a lot of ups and downs. In the end, I am now approved from my insurance company for both the RFA (radio frequency ablation) and the proton radiation therapy. Originally, I was supposed to have the RFA done this past Tuesday, but it was cancelled. Now I can officially post... without changing what I say... that my RFA will be this Wednesday morning. And the radiation will begin that night at 6pm. Yay! I never thought i would be so excited for radiation and a medical procedure, but I'm ecstatic!
Just want the cancer out and gone! Gone, baby, gone.

  

Sorry for taking a long break in posting. Aside from not having a clear medical answer, I hadn't posted for awhile because I had been having bad headaches that I just couldn't shake. But I have been thinking of you... because your prayers are working. The other day my doctor and I were talking about my scans and how happy we were that all was stable. I asked her if it was common for this cancer to grow on treatment and not respond; she said it's more common than not. So again... I am so lucky and blessed. I cannot thank you all enough for your prayers. Please keep them coming :o)

Well... I haven't been up to much. My lungs continue to improve as well as my headaches (we think they may have been allergies, go figure). Patti gave me a funny hat, and I saw my first double rainbow last Saturday when we were celebrating Mother's Day early. Now I can check it off my bucket list. :o)


lots of love & chocolate chip cookies... milk optional
