Welcome 2010….Good Bye 2009!!!
What a crazy rollercoaster 2009 was. I am feeling more like myself and there are sometimes hours at a time that go by that I completely forget about Cancer. Then it comes lurking around the corner like a unwelcome visitor and I am once again reminded. It will never be out of my mind for good….there will always be the next scan, test that will be coming. I am struggling with what to feel or do. I feel like I should be climbing a mountain or sky diving but you just go on with your life….am I in such a hurry to get back to the hum drum? I am so happy that my tumor was gone but then I am scared to death for the PET scan…because what will happen if it has started growing again…or spread to more of my lymph nodes? Just when I start to relax and forget about it…it is there. The goal is to be normal again!!!….but what is normal? I just want it to be gone forever!!!
I haven’t posted in awhile but it is theraputic so I am doing it. Christmas was wonderful and I got to see my cousin Lonnie who lives in California. Larry’s Mom was also in town just after Thanksgiving and we got to see her also which was really nice (she lives in California as well). It was nice to see my entire family…I am blessed to have such a great family!
So am I happy to say good bye to 2009…Yes….it was a doozy! I pray that 2010 will hold joy, love, health and happiness for all of us!!!

23-Jan-2010 2Hi Lisa,
You don’t know me but I grew up across the street from your dad. You might know his good friend John Millspaugh. I am John’s sister. I live in Plainfield In. John told me about you having cancer and that he was reading your blog. I just wanted you to know you are in my prayers and I pray you will beat this cancer completely. I know some of what you have gone through as I have had 2 different kinds of caner, breast which is gone and thyroid which I have had for 15 years. I know cancers are all different but just the word brings on all kinds of emotions, reactions, etc. I am glad you are doing better and know that 2009 must have been a nightmare for you. It was fun to read about the good friends you made through this. That is the good part of it. You can see what good, real people are all about and how kind they can be. Attitude is certainly one of the most important things to have during all of this and I can tell you have a great one. Janet Nysewander
