Don't Come Back!

Dear Blog,

I guess I should keep you up to date. I went to see my Oncologist last week. PSA was once again <0.1>

The good Dr. V. told me that I was being discharged from the Allan Blair Cancer Center. I didn't have to come back unless my PSA started to climb. I was told that I need to monitor my PSA every 6 months and if my levels start to rise and if they reach 0.3 then I go back. But until then, I don't need to come back.

I felt happy but I also felt scared. I felt a sense of loss and I felt lonely when I was told not to come back! I talked to another cancer survivor and this person told me she felt the same thing when she was told not to come back. I find it so interesting how this monster acts on a person's thinking and emotions.

But this is good news. I am very grateful that I am still around. It is more that two years after being told I have the monster. Thank you Big Guy!
