A Month of Silence

No news is not always good news. I had lung surgery on March 4th.

I am sorry it has taken so long to write.

So many words went through my mind when I realized I had to have surgery. Let's face it- if it's not one excuse it's another. But honestly this has been the hardest month of my life. Not only did I feel like I was going to die, but I just felt alone.

Good news is, the tumor is out! Was it cancer? Wtf knows... seriously. Well they "don't think" it was it is. That's nice... but there is solid good news. Every person who has had this type of tumor and had it removed has never had it return. While I tend to be the anomaly, I'd prefer to think I can be the majority of never.

What it is also amazing is how much support I have had. My best friends from Cali and Illinois have or are traveling to see me. My boyfriend has driven back and forth from PA to be there on the day of my surgery as well as a 2-day trip. I am so greatful for all of them.

I am making a twitter account as well so any who would like to keep up with my thoughts can follow me there. It'll be @Backwoods_Belle

At this point, all we can do is say well done to what we've made it through, thank you for what we have, and here we go for what lies ahead. Sometimes we spend too much of our time fighting time, instead of just accepting it and moving on. Robert Frost said in three words he could sum up life, "It goes on."

So this is the going on part... hope you stay part of the journey :)
