I made it through isolation week and had my body scan at Mercy on Friday, Feb. 19. It took about an hour and Bryan went with me. I was anxious-but got through it fine. We celebrated afterwards by picking up breakfast at one of our favorite places (which I would later regret that afternoon-still having diet issuesš¬). It tasted SOO good! I was extremely happy to get through last week and jump through that difficult week. š„ I still have residual effects of the treatment with dry mouth, fatigue and nausea, but everyday I get a bit better! On Thursday I was able to get an appointment for Saturday for my first Covid19 vaccine at a Walgreens!! This made me the happiest girl. It was a lot physically with all the healing Iām doing to go do the vaccine-but I just wanted to get it over with and get on with anything I need to do to get more freedom in my life! I had no problem with the vaccine, and just a slight sore arm. Only really hurt to the touch. šŖš» Hereās the BEST news though! I received my scan results today and it was found that āthere is no new findings of distant metastasis diseaseā!!! The Dr said it was the most normal, perfect scan that you would want after the surgery and RAI! The part of the report that I like most was the last line that said, āthere is no evidence for additional disease burden ā... what wonderful words!

Iām encouraged and hopeful that I can continue to heal and start a new chapter in my life. I will have Dr follow-ups and Iām sure medicine adjustments, along with tests every 6 months, but right now I am ready to be a SURVIVOR and thankful this cancer was caught early...that I followed my intuition to continue to seek answers. I cannot thank all my warriors who prayed for me and will continue to walk this journey with me! I am beyond blessed, and do not take lightly all of you who reached out to lift me up in my time of need! Love ā¤ļø you all!!
