Week 10

Early morning en route to Toronto, Timmies in hand, trying mobile blog posting LOL

Goals for the day:
8am Bloodwork
10am Dr. Meeting
12pm-ish PacMan injection
(Somewhere in there a turkey sandwich on rye? The cafe at Odette Cancer Centre puts tomato and sprouts on them- my favourite!)
And...
3pm Consultation with Head and Neck Surgeon - wobble my way to the main building to talk about thyroid situation.

Scott and I are hoping it all goes smoothly and we may be on the way home around suppertime. Will see how it goes and will keep you posted!
Thanks for the good vibes, hope everybody had a good Thanksgiving weekend. :-)

I am a dauntless mother of fabulous identical twin daughters who are now building their careers in the big city. At 37 years old (in 2014) when the girls were just turning 12, I was diagnosed with cancer: Stage IIIb nodular melanoma AND at the same time, stage III papillary thyroid cancer, both of which are "in remission" (no evidence of disease) at this time. I have had multiple surgeries and intense medical treatments, and I remain under annual CT scan "surveillance."

During the most ill and fearful time of my cancer journey, sharing my saga online helped me cope with the roller coaster ride in a brutally honest and often comical way. You can search back in the archives to learn more about our experiences, all of which are still relevant and stay with me every day. I hope that sharing my journey will help others as well! Join the discussion ~ comments, questions, and advice always welcome.

Thank you,

Natalie
