My Lemons: BC

I wanted to write a post pre cancer so I can document how I felt before I knew what life with cancer felt like. Right now I know I have cancer, but other than that nothing much has changed. I’m not in pain, I don’t feel sick, and other than my impending meeting with my surgeon on my mind, life is “normal”.

I know after my appointment today, that will all change. I will get my cancer patient number and a recommendation for my treatment plan. Whatever that plan is, life will be different after. It kind of reminds me of having kids. Before, you are living in this naive bliss where there’s no way you could even begin to understand how much your life is going to change. You just know it is.

Am I scared? Honestly, not really.

I’m just anxious to find out what “the plan” is. What will happen is out of my control so we will just take it day by day. Appointment by appointment.

So far I’m just ready to kick some ass. Cancer’s ass, my work’s ass, and 2021’s ass. I’ve got big plans and this is just making things a little more interesting.

And isn’t that what life is all about? Challenges, growth, change?

So let’s get this party started already!!
