TRULY BLESSED!

Ok guys, so here it is....im sure you have all already heard, but if not....I AM CANCER FREE!!! My body scan results came back, and there is no more cancer in my body! The radiation took the rest of it out!!! whoooo hoo!!!! My family and I could not be happier!!! Yesterday I went to see my surgeon just for blood results (I am still taking a ton of tums everyday for calcium levels) and we went in to see if I could lower the intake, and he found out that my scan was last week, so he called over to radiology, got the results, then told us! I think he was dying to know as well, he has been pretty amazing..I think we got the best surgeon around!! Not only did my results come back amazing, but I do get to lower my intake of the tums..I can only chew on so many of those chalky tablets a day...I was taking two tums 4 times a day, and now I only have to do it 3 times a day!! In a month I go back for more bloodwork and then back to my surgeon to see if I can lower it even more at that point. I am still getting back to normal and getting healthy again, but I feel great!!! Work has been so fun and easy this year!! The kids are great and the class pretty much runs itself! My body also seems to be adjusting to the thyroid medication OK so far..its been about a week and a few days on it, and I dont go back to the endocrineologist until the beginning of September so until then lets hope its still smooth sailing :) Another good thing is that I finally have some of my appetite back! I am totally craving junk food though...I am doing pretty good about my eating habits and adjusting to a healthier lifestyle, but every now and then I need a french fry or a wing! Haha last night after we got our good news we went to Applebees for happy hour to celebrate...mmm wings and nachos were amazing..the only sad thing?? My taste buds are not the same and I have really, really sensitive teeth....I could barely taste the nachos, and the wings....all I tasted was spice, not flavor..lets hope that goes away and that I didnt ruin that for life :( I guess it would be a small price to pay though considering everything we have gone through. My prayers were truly answered and the Lord has given me this challenge for a reason. I took the challenge, rose to it, and beat it! I am stronger because of it!! I have total faith in Him that he is protecting me and guiding me. Life is truly a blessing, and my family is truly blessed! As for now, I am living my best life, with my amazing boyfriend. I couldnt have done this without him, and we will rise to many more challenges together and get through them together! I love him so much I cant say it enough! Life is good! Love you all! Happy Thursday!
