Cancerversary

A year ago today I was diagnosed with bone cancer.
I underwent chemo for four months, and declared in remission in Dec. of '08.
I'm still healthy and there are currently no signs of it coming back.
I'm lucky and thankful and grateful for all that I have- but today is still a very weird day.

    Thanks everyone for the kind words. They mean a lot.
    Yesterday was very weird, because I remember all the fear and apprehension that came along with the diagnosis, so it's great that that's gone, but still feels strange to celebrate.

    But once it's time for the remission anniversary, I'm going to be a party animal! :lol::lol::lol:
