Scary but…

    Well they’re not always right.I had stage iV and after my first MRI the doc.told me to “prepare my affairs”.I said oh yeah ! I decided to dig in my heals and fight back.I was lucky and I’m still kicking.Don’t want to give you false hope but just maybe open that window a bit.Maybe you already have made that decision ?

    Are you finding the whole Christmas thing tough ? I am.I guess it’s some kind of a “marker”and when you’re thinking about the future it’s kind of complicated n’est pas ?

    I was told one year ago that I had one to two years to live. A month after that the Sarcoma returned on my femoral artery in my left leg. Subsequent to that a life/death infection set in which led to four horrible back to back surgeries from January 2017–March 2017. I’m still here! At this moment I have less than 1cm of it in my right lung. I’m taking life moment to moment. Moments are what we string together to make our memories so I don’t want to waste any!

    Christmas is my favorite time of year, and it’s difficult because I fast forward in my mind wondering about when I may see my last. I just have to stop that! This year was better – I didn’t think that way. After almost 6 yrs I’m getting a better handle on myself; however, that’s subject to change!

    Yes Jennifer
    “subject to change” is a very appropriate phrase for this type of circumstance.Boy – life used to be so simple.Anyway it certainly beats the alternative.
