That's great news, Sandra. I think many of our expectations of how cancer will affect us are informed by the way people used to suffer 20+ years ago from treatment side effects and the media portrayals of people in their last weeks of life. The reality for a significant number of people is much different. The whole thing can feel positively medieval at times--"Right then, off with her tits"--but I think even those of us who have had a less than fabulous time during treatment have days when its not all we think about.
Not everyone gets sick, not everyone's life gets totally consumed by it. Some of us have good weeks, then bad weeks. If you are cruising along keeping your life as normal as possible, that is a truly good thing. Marg
