..this isn't as big as it seems....;-)
I had my 3-monthly control with a scan of the lungs and a blood sample to establish the tumor marker. I was quite scared because it was about the same time (seven months after operating) that in 2011 the cancer was back.
I feel a fortunate woman, I got the thumps up, no evidence of disease. The reason I have to go into theatre on Friday morning has to do with removing of the PAC. For almost two years I haven't needed the port-a-cat. Hopefully it will takes years before there's talk about chemo therapy again.
To morrow there's enough to distract me from thinking of Friday. I get visitors, a socioligy student from a University in Limburg with a camera man. They intend to shoot a scene about cancer and exercising. They've asked me to talk about motivation and obstacles I experienced. The project is meant to motivate other people with cancer to be more active, because the idea is that exercising does have a positive influence on the cancer. They thought I might me the right role model. 0 Comment(s)

I can see it. There is a woman riding a bike and she approaches the camera. Oh, it is Fishermanswife looking as vigorous as can be! After my mastectomies my surgeon said, "Go home, take a nap and walk a half mile." I wish I'd kept it up. I'd been on and off until two oncologists looked at me recently with scorn and admonished me to do what I knew I needed to do. I have been better but not perfect. Yours is an important film! You'll be a star with an earnest message! / No disease found! Music! A trumpet choir / Having the PAC gone is the final step in your liberation from cancer! Rejoice!

Laughing out loud!
You are right, it is important. Sometimes people need a bit of extra support to start being active. You should look for someone to exercise together. Take a plane and we will!
