In Remission from Diffuse Large BCell Lymphoma

On Oct. 19, 2006 I was finally told I was in remission. That's great I will go to see the Doc every 3 months and have a pet scan ever 6 months to make sure it's not coming back. Sad thing is this type of Cancer likes to make a reappearance. But I have made my mind up it won't be back.

For anyone with Cancer it is your attitude that can make or break you along with the Stage your in. Me I was lucky I found it early and was in Stage 1 of an aggressive lymphoma cancer and decided I was going to kick it's butt before it kicked mine...lol. And I did!

I know I was very lucky with finding it early and the fact God was on my side with a LOT of people praying for me literally. I was in the womens restroom one day at work when I first knew I had it and was telling my old boss about it when another woman walked up and said " I am sorry I overheard your conversation and wondered if we might say a prayer right now," she was a ministers wife and what was I going to say NO I think not.

You got that right we all joined hands and bowed our heads as she called upon the name of the Lord to watch over me and heal my body from Cancer. I can't tell you how loved I felt at that moment as these women clasped my hands tight and began to pray. I can only hope and pray myself that if you find yourself in the same situation that you have such good friends around you that will stop literally and pray for you even in a womens bathroom.

Thank you God for your listening ear. This girl believes in the POWER OF PRAYER!!!

P.S.
I will also tell you this. I do not fear dying for it means I will be going home and there are a lot of people I can't wait to see again. The only thing I really fear about death is the pain that may come with it and the fact I may miss seeing my children until they come home too.
