Princeline, your story is incredible. I read it once, then twice, then three times, feeling your emotions as you traveled between hope and fear and anxiety and back to hope and then joy. It feels like what you experienced in those two weeks could be a book all by itself.
I am a control freak too, but it's funny, that thing we call control -- it's times like this that it makes me realize all over again that we rarely control the big things that happen to us; we can only work on controlling how we react to them. You cratered a little at first, which is natural, and then you did take control of what you could: you cooperated with all the doctors' needs, you asked for prayers, you reached out to find more information and you became your body's advocate in a scary time.
Thank you for sharing what you went through. Every woman who reads it will identify with the details. And some who are in the middle of their own difficult time will definitely take hope from your story. May you sail through the rest of your five years -- and far beyond -- without any more worries. And I'm sure I don't have to tell you this, but enjoy that vacation!!
