In the Bonus Round!

Unless something terrible happens in the next 31 minutes, I will officially have outlived my estimated life expectancy at the time I was diagnosed with cancer.  August 20 marks two years since that day that turned my world upside down. 

I was supposed to have a check up last Wednesday, the 15th which would have confirmed that I am still hale and hearty, but technical difficulties with the MRI scanner caused my appointment to be canceled and rescheduled for this Wednesday, the 22nd.  Though the most recent medical confirmation that all is well at this point is over eight weeks old, I can live with that (pun intended).  I still feel great - went on a 4.5 mile run on Friday and an 8 mile bike ride today to pick up groceries for dinner.

Tomorrow Doug and I will have the day together and then meet our family for a celebration dinner.  I've been waiting for this day for a long time.  I've exceeded my expiration date and am now in the bonus round - there's no stopping me now!
