I'm still struggling with the post-NOLOSE cold, and it's kicking my ass.

I've started the licensure process and already can't wait to see the end of it.  (But yay!  Started it!)

Those conversations sound amazing -- thank you so much for doing that work. And yay for starting the licensing process.

And, whoa, about the proteins, all of the testing, and the worries.

And that there's a power involved, at least one, which is clearly the case with you.) I'm really sorry about the scary parts, and the painful parts. And I'm really glad that you don't have cancer.

Here's to integration, and the time and work it takes, and the gifts that it brings. And, so seriously, here's to love.

What a scare! What a rollercoaster.

I would imagine weird, too, on the tails of your graduation and a much broader Eastern medical knowledge than before: spending so much time in w. medicine as a patient right now, trying to figure out things going awry, trying to get as much info as you can on scary shit.

I'm so glad you don't have the cancer! You have the blood of a senior pumping through your veins!

Love, heart and courage to you.

Yeah, it's pretty crazy to be this deep in Western medicine right now.

You have the blood of a senior pumping through your veins!

Yes! Maybe I should look at it in that light, like extra wisdom added into my mix :)

Thanks so much for your support *

holy crap! that all sounds really scary. i know that sometimes probability stats can sound more threatening than the end up being in any particular case but still, scary! i am really glad to hear it's not cancer too! i hope you are able to find more information and help around this. i dont' know what i can offer but lots of love and positive healing thoughts. xoxo

Yes, it's a good reminder that stats are always iffy in real life experience.

Thanks so much *

Oh, wow, that sounds completely terrifying. I'm so glad it turned out to be merely worrisome, if you see what I mean.

*hugs you tight*
