The good news is that I have no news to report. I'm marking the passing of the new year quietly, feeling well, with energy and gratitude to family and friends.Thank you for being interested in my plight, for checking in here, and for sending me good thoughts. I feel that many things have collectively contributed to my still being around to post these notes, not the least of which is all the human energy being expended on my behalf in the form of thoughts, wishes, prayers and actions... hard to quantify, but impossible to deny from where I stand.
Early next week I will get my latest blood test results through my naturopath, and they should inform us about the effects of some changes we've made in my supplements. Basically, we have cut back on some supplements to see if my healthy blood levels are being achieved by taking the supplements or by the healthy state of my body (being cancer free). If the numbers change, we pump back up the supplements... otherwise we follow a maintenance course...
I get my next CAT scan the last week of January, and will get the results from my oncologist on February 3rd. If I continue to have a clean scan, then I will eventually switch to scans every 6 months... cautiously heading toward that magical 5 year date where they stop looking for darkness...
In the meantime, I wish you all a new year full of wisdom and good health...
