"The most beautiful people we have known are those who have known defeat, known suffering, known struggle, known loss, and have found their way out of the depths. These persons have an appreciation, a sensitivity, and an understanding of life that fills them with compassion, gentleness, and a deep loving concern. Beautiful people do not just happen."

CLEAN CT SCAN!

I had another scheduled CT scan and it's all clear!! It never fails though that I was sick this time around too. Remember my sore throat in January? Well, this time I started having a bad cough last week. Went to the docs, got a z pack and started feeling better Monday (the day of my scans). Well, two chest xrays did not catch the pneumonia that is in my left lung. The CT scan caught it, so now I'm on another z pack for 5 more days and I'll have a chest CT scan in May. Had it not been for that, I would be looking at a 6 month wait on scans!! Hey, as long as there's no lymphoma bring on pneumonia and anything else!! :) WOO-HOO!!

So, I'll probably be celebrating, praying and giving thanks until my next round of scans! Until then, here's to a very enjoyable next two months.

Much love,
Brandy

So glad to hear you are doing well. Don't know where I found your blog, most likely linked from some craft or quilt blog, but I keep you in my thoughts and prayers and was worried when there were no recent updates. Stay positive!
