"I guess that I don’t need that though, now you’re just somebody that I used to know."
My friends, I have wonderful, unexpected news. As some of you may remember, today I had my annual oncological check-up. The difference was, this year I went to another hospital, where my old oncologist now works. I had all my papers and sonographies and whatnot with me, ready to start a new journey in a new hospital.
As it turns out, it was my last oncogical check-up ever. My beloved doctor read all my exams, and told me I'm perfectly healthy, and I can safely close this chapter of my life. After 8 years since I first found that hateful lump in my left breast (it was christmas 2004), it is finally over.
How am I feeling? Excited, of course, but at the moment pretty much shocked. I knew this day would come, but I thought I had at least two more years in front of me, many more painful exams, and that I would have known it beforehand when the last one hit.
I called my therapist, and she suggested I should buy myself a gift to celebrate. We're thinking a bracelet, or a ring, because holy hell this is a milestone in my life, and I had no time to be prepared, I need to celebrate it properly! \o/
