Last Tuesday was an encouraging day...the results from my blood work indicated that my liver enzyme levels were back to normal (they were originally dangerously high back in April when this all began) and the results from the CT Scan showed a 30-40% reduction in mass size with just two rounds of chemotherapy.
I was extremely nervous going into the appointment...so it was nice getting some good news! Especially after being bombarded the past two months and trying to wrap my mind around this whole cancer diagnosis/new journey in my life.
As my oncologist said, the CT Scan showed "stellar" results. Keeping my fingers crossed for the remaining cycles, having hope and choosing to live.

Vision Board Project
I recently finished reading a wonderful book titled "Choose To Live (Our Journey From Late Stage Cancer To Vibrant Health)"....several phrases/passages resonated with me including the following:
After reading the book, it then spurred me to finish something that has been on my never ending to-do list....create my very own vision board.
For those of you who have never heard of such a thing, "A vision board is a simple yet powerful visualization tool that activates the universal law of attraction to begin manifesting your dreams into reality. The concept of the vision board (also known as a goal board/goal map) has been around for generations, but it’s gained a renewed interest and popularity after success expert John Assaraf related his story of using vision boards to achieve his dreams in the best-selling book and DVD documentary The Secret (also viewed by millions on Oprah)."
"A vision board is simply a visual representation or collage of the things that you want to have, be, or do in your life. The purpose of a vision board is to activate the law of attraction to begin to pull things from your external environment that will enable you to realize your dream. By selecting pictures and writing that charges your emotions with feelings of passion, you will begin to manifest those things into your life."
The theme around my vision board was "Choose To Live" and "Hope".
Peace, Love & Miracles
- "When life and death are placed before us, we are to choose life. By that, I do not mean merely to try to avoid dying, but to choose to live a meaningful life involving us in a demonstration of our love for ourselves and others. When we live that way, our body knows we love our life. It then does all it can to sustain us, heal our afflictions and wounds, and keep us healthy."
- "Hope is necessary for survival."
- "Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve." ~Napoleon Hill
- "Hope comes from daring to believe in miracles. Daring to believe that you are worthy of one."
