Martini time!

/ Jen

imageWell you can’t say you weren’t warned about the brevity of this post. My eyes are indeed still blurry, but my scans are CLEAR! I’ll elaborate in another post, but the bottom line is my liver and lungs look good, and my tumor is shrinking. It’s also bleeding, so I will now be getting Avastin injections in my eye to prevent a major hemorrhage that would leave me totally blind in that eye. Yes, I’m grossed out. No, I’m not really thinking about that right now. Because, um, did I mention that my scans are TOTALLY CLEAR? Because they are. In case you missed that. Oh, and my oncologist and my rheumatologist completely hate each other, but I don’t care right now. Because I just renewed the lease on this body, and I am pumped. Shoot, now I’m going to have to lose that vacation weight…

I wish I could explain it or describe it, because it was beyond amazing, but I absolutely felt your prayers and thoughts today. I am so humbled and grateful, and “thank you” doesn’t seem quite adequate, but it will have to do until I think of a better way to express it. Thank you. Thank you for coming on this journey with me, for lifting me up, for supporting my family, for loving us and encouraging us. Thank you for your endurance and your perseverance. Thank you for being awesome. Because you are.

Now if you’ll excuse me, it’s martini time…
