Stage 1a, Grade 2

The title says it all.  :-)

Went to see Dr. Moxley today.  I only had to wait 10 minutes, but they were the 10 longest minutes of my life.  I was so anxious to get my results!  It's easy for others to say for me to be patient, but they're not the ones who have to wait.  Bah!!  But anyhow...Dr. Moxley came in and checked out everything.  I am healing from the hysterectomy quite nicely, which is good.  She told me that the cancer was confined to the uterus, and that it was caught early.  Thank goodness!!!  :-)  she also said that I don't need any chemo or radiation treatments.  So yeah, I guess you could say I'm in remission now!!!   Yay!!!!!

I was just so overcome with emotion when the doctor told me the good news.  I didn't think that I would react the way I did, but there you have it.  You never know how you're going to react to something unless you're confronted with the situation.  You never know how strong you are until you have to go through something like this.  I've been called plenty of things, but I never thought that "cancer survivor" would be one of them.  It takes a special kind of person to be called a cancer survivor, so I guess I'm special then!!  :-)

The uterine cancer is at Stage 1a, Grade 2, hence the name of the entry title.  :-)  I have been thanking the good Lord all day that it was only at this stage.  I have been truly blessed.  Truly.
