Yea! More shots!

After nearly a month of treatment and I am feeling more and more confident that I am exactly where I need to be. The doctors truly care about each one of us. I am surrounded by wonderful, informed, intelligent people who also believe in the treatment. And having faith in your protocol and medical team enables further healing. If you believe you are going to get sick and die, you probably will. I choose to believe I am finding the answers for me. Physically, emotionally and spiritually.

Every day is a journey- some days more difficult than others. I receive more shots than an archery target- I am strarting to look like a pin cushion. At first I dreaded them- braced myself for the worst. But I have learned to say “Yea! I get 2 today!!” Forcing humor has helped me accept what is. Even when I go down- nausea or whatever- I know that I am healing- my body is responding the way it is supposed to- that comforts me.

I intend to be in full remission by summer’s end. I feel it in my heart and soul. I know that this was a part of my journey to teach me so that I could eventually reach out to others. This dis-ease was not meant to do me in, but to change me in ways that I never could have imagined. Thing is, I really like me now. And that is a wonderful feeling.
