Good, good news!

So I didn't sleep very well last night. Anxiety about this day maybe or just in an unfamiliar place. So, I woke up a little early and hopped on the treadmill. Pounded out 3.0 miles on that baby! It feels so good/bad all at the same time. But proud of myself for not just saying, ah forget it today... I needed that.

My mom's tests went pretty well today. They went down and took biopsies again in her esophagus but didn't have to 'resect' anything (meaning: they didn't see any really concerning spots... they always take biopsies)... So that's wonderful news, but we still need to hear about the biopsies. We should know by about Tuesday or so.

She also had a chest CT today, which showed a nodule that has not grown in over 1 year. YAY! this means it is most likely not cancer, because cancer grows... and fast. So, another CT of the chest in a year and we'll be cleared from that scary thing.

It is definitely a day to give thanks. Appropriate, as Thanksgiving is just around the corner. Smiles today, folks :)
