12:21

Got an email from my medical oncologist at 12:21 saying that everything is shrinking (nothing new showing up and nothing getting larger). I love that she lets me know so quickly! My MRI was yesterday at 5pm, so I expected that I might have to wait all weekend. Whew! What ever little headaches I'm having are not from cancer growing in my head. What a fucking relief this is. Lets hope things keep shrinking!!

  1. What EXCELLENT news at 12:21!!!!! Wow, that was fast! It’s sort of like 1-hour photo places! Ha ha! Seriously, I am so happy to hear your news and to know that you did not have to spend the weekend agonizing!! Hooray!! Here’s hoping that the current regime keeps the nasty cancer cells in check!

    Hope that you and Keith (and Red, if he has been behaving himself) do something to celebrate the news!

    Love, Jane

  4. Yaay for the thoughtful and speedy medical oncologist and the good news she delivered!! Here's to continued shrinkage. It must be so scary to worry about a brain tumor every time you have a bit of a headache. If anyone has a good reason to suffer from tension headaches, it would be you. Hope your headaches go away with this reassuring news. love, Sheila

  6. Yaay for the great medical oncologist and her speedy messages to you, and double-yaay for the positive news she delivered! It must be scary that every time you have a bit of a headache, you worry about the cancer. I hope the headaches subside with this reassuring news. I'm sure I posted this to your blog yesterday, but I don't see my comments here today. We're thinking of you, love, Sheila
