I had a PET Scan this week to be sure that I am cancer free. If you remember, what happened to me is most common in children, and they typically find a cancer in relation. There is less research out there for an adult, let alone a pregnant one, so they had checked me for everything possible. Nothing was ever found, and with that I was considered an anomaly. And I’m happy to say they didn’t find any cancer in this follow up scan either! 

My neurologist will still check in once a year over the next 5 years. 

It’s crazy thinking back to this time last year and remembering the feelings of uncertainty. Here I am now, having made a full recovery.  My neurologist says it’s remarkable, the pace at which I returned to normal. Although 8 months doesn’t fly by when you’re just trying to get through one day at a time, I think now it wasn’t all bad. I am so much stronger than I ever thought possible. And this experience made me realize that. There is so much to be thankful for. Cheers to a new year of health and happiness!
