What Will The New Year Bring?

This was a different New Year’s Eve for me as I had my 13th of 33 Salvage Radiation treatments to ring out the old year and hopefully my recurrence. Thankfully, I had Christmas Day and Boxing Day off which gave me a little break. It’s still early in the treatment, but I’m feeling some side effects (manageable) and just want to get it over with.

While there is uncertainty for me in this new year coming, I look forward with optimism and hope, knowing in my heart that I am doing all that I can, that I am doing the right things, and that I am getting the best treatment available.

I wish everyone a very healthy, happy and hopeful New Year.

    Hi Doug

    I can understand how you’re feeling. This is a hard time of year for many people, and adding the stress of treatment on to it….well, ’nuff said!

    You said the word “uncertainty”. That is certainly a word that is associated with cancer.

    Happy holidays and very best wishes for healthy happy 2008!

    Hey Doug,
    I loved this post. Seems like we might have been on the same wave length as I was contemplating similar thoughts in my last post. Your optimism and hope are always inspiring. Thanks for writing!
