My button on the right side of blog is for a survivor and that I am!! In 2002 I was told I had Hodgkin's Lymphoma Cancer.. when I was waking up from my operation....when you hear the word Cancer you only think one thing Death! I was going in and out of sleep but I was crying and the nurse kept asking if I need something for the pain and all I could do was shake my head no...
well after countless PET--CAT scans ----bone core and many other pain full things I got my port in place and was given Chemo..they told me my hair would be gone in 2 days because I was on a very high and strong dose of Chemo medication.... I lost hair but I managed to keep most of it (although thinned out) the whole 12 round of Chemo ( that is 7 months of my life every week--5 hours each time) I was sick-tired-but I never gave up.. I am a survivor and I had a baby granddaughter I wanted to see grow up....and a Family.. My family was and is the best--they were there for me all the way!! On my first Cancer Walk it took me 20 min. to go around the track but they walked it with me... I never questioned their love for me.... I have now been in remission for 5 years as of Sept 2007!!!!!! YEA for ME!!!!!!!!!!! yes I am conceded but I have a right to be! I now go for a yearly CAT Scan and Dr. Ck up..... I still have and will always have the fear of it coming back or a different kind....If you have been told you have Cancer you know the feeling! so I have put this button on my site for those that have died--and those of us who are still hear to tell about it...... If you think you have something please get a check up!!!
Thanks for letting me talk your ear off but I thought I needed to explain what the button represents to me.
