Good News :-)

Sitting in a hotel room in Oklahoma City, and getting ready to call it a night.  I would definitely think that it has been a very successful day.  :-)  I'm here for my three-month cancer checkup with Dr. Moxley.  Funny thing, I saw her nurse practicioner (is that how you spell it?) Sarah instead.  It was weird not seeing Dr. Moxley as I usually do.  I think it was because she was busy with other patients.  I didn't have to do a Pap smear this time, so that was a good thing.  The good news is that I'm still cancer-free.  That doesn't bother me at all.  :-)  before I left, the nurse told me to wait a few minutes so that Dr. Moxley could say hi to me.  That was pretty cool.  She wanted to take time out of her extremely busy schedule to see how I was doing.  I loved her for that.  :-)  my next visit is scheduled for August 22nd.  I was about two blocks from the hotel when it suddenly hit me...I had realized that the visit will be almost exactly a year to the day since I received that phone call telling me I had cancer.  And believe me, I started bawling like a baby.  My, what a difference a year can make.  This time last year, I was worried about insignificant things.  Now, I have learned to appreciate the simple things in life, like my friends and my family.  Who knew, huh?
