A Humorous Look at the Bright Side of Cancer... and There Is One

June 24, 2010

Hysteria

I now know the true meaning of the word hysteria.

All day yesterday, I alternated between crying, nervous laughter, happy laughter, and fatigue. The results of my breast cancer re-staging test came in. Dr. Hoffman told me and Ken that the cancer has not spread.

Therefore, today and tomorrow I will be “decompressing” –which is my new word–and will involve the following:

a) pleasurable yardwork
b) plinking around the house
c) Trader Joe Dark Chocolate Covered Caramel
