I wish that I knew what I know now, when I was stronger.
"The PET scan showed little or no visible signs of the disease. Some would call that being 'in remission'."
IM IN REMISSION!!!! As of today, I have been officially declared free of Hodgkins Disease. Now, I'm not "cured". You have to be in remission for 5 years before they consider you cured of cancer, because its very unlikely to relapse after 5 years. I'm still at a heightened risk for things like breast cancer, heart disease, etc...But I guess you have to face every problem as it comes to you.
Anyway.
I just wanted to let you all know. I wish I felt better so I could be as excited as I should be.
