R-E-M-I-S-S-I-O-N The 9-letter word that all cancer patients (and warriors) cannot wait to hear from their own oncologist, and on 23 March, I finally heard mine from Dr Ang!
"Have I finally made it? Is it already fully 5 years since the end of the last chemo?", we asked the good doctor in earnest.
Doc replied, "No, you are 3 month short, but your results are so good, I believe you have made it, Nellie!"
What a surge of emotions inside me! These 2 photos really depict everything that's inside me:
Once, I was blurred, from the backdrop.
Now, I am right on 100% focus! And at the forefront of my life!
I did it..
With the help of everyone around me - my family, my father in heaven, my Hubby, my Doc - I have saved my own life!
And to mark the occasion, Hubby bought a lovely ring, right off Orchard Road on the evening itself, to signify that my life has indeed come full circle!
Words cannot describe my gratitude to all who have helped me through this amazing roller-coaster of a journey. That night, as I lay in bed, I said a silent prayer..
(And oh, in case you are wondering, this is no April Fool's joke)
