A bit disappointed but feeling wonderful anyway!

Well, I feel like a million bucks today. I was a bit disappointed to have the AG Summit adjourned, but I feel confident it will be held soon and hopefully by then it will be one to celebrate.
It seems like the closer one gets to an anticipated situation, the more anxious one gets (as we are all feeling right now waiting for our stock to start trading again).
I was feeling anxiety last night and this morning before I went to the doctor for my “big news”. The news was wonderful: it didn’t spread – nothing in the lymph nodes. So I am being thankful for my blessings now and thinking about one of my favorite expressions: “Just think how happy you would be if you thought you lost everything, and then got it all back again.” I’m not out of the woods yet as I still have to have another operation soon to make a wider margin around it and radiation and an open biopsy on the other one, but this will be a piece of cake knowing that the big “C” is contained. Usually I would think of my cup as being half full, not half empty but in this case I have a cup that is overflowing (I have water retention in it because of the operation and need antibiotics– but I am thankful for not ending up with an empty cup too!) I’m looking forward to getting this pesky thing over with and looking forward to seeing our WWF going to the roof as we have been hoping.
So for any gals out there that aren’t spring chickens and you guys with gals who you want to keep around, I have just a bit of advice: Make sure you/they have a regular mammogram. I’m so thankful I did or it would have never been caught so early.
Keep your chins up – it can’t be much longer before something starts happening. We have been so patient we can’t lose it now. Gotta keep our positive vibes up and maybe we’ll make it happen through our collective thoughts.
Regards to all and good luck,
