My First Recurrance
The statistics said I would have a recurrance. I just didn't think it would be this soon. The blood test says I'm having a recurrance, I was still hoping for more time. The doctor says I'm having a recurrance, I still want more cancer free time.
These last 6 months off chemo have been wonderful. I am feeling like my old self again. I feel so good and have more energy than I've had in a year. Now what? I will have to start chemo all over again. I have a CT scan next week. and then I see my oncologist. The roller coaster starts again. Will this time cure my cancer? Will anything cure ovarian cancer? I don't know and neither do the doctors. The doctors give it their best shot and work so hard and many times have a lot of success, or is it just luck? Faith in God and faith in my doctors will get me through. That and a lot of help from my friends.
I will continue to fight for my life. I owe it to myself and my family. I will survive. I will beat this. Cancer will never win!

Well said Lee! I like the saying that Faith doesn't get us around troubles, it gets us through them. I'm so glad you have such good docs and great support from family & friends.
You are in my prayers.
Hugs and Blessings, Judy
