    Default One year ago today

    I was diagnosed a year ago today. And wow, what a year!

    Just wanna say thanks to all of you for advice, guidance and inspiration.

    Isn't it weird...I hit a year in July (though technically more like April), and I can't believe it's already been a year of dealing with this weirdness.

    Yes very odd, and anti climatic....thought i'd be in remission by now. But that was very naive of me...hopefully the Rituxmab will kick me into remission and i'll be having that sooner rather than later.

    Dunno how to mark the occasion really...is it a celebration? Hard to feel happy about it.

    1 year on with my best friend forever. Here's to next year.

    It is kinda like what it would be like to congratulate someone on a happy one year marriage when you know they now hate each other isnt it?

    I celebrated my one year anniversary with increased intracranial pressure that nearly left me blind in both eyes, and would have killed me had it gone on a few more hours. I then learned I'd have to stay on treatment for 2 more years. Because I had been told by my first uninformed docs that I only had to do 1 year of treatment and all would be well, I felt completely betrayed. My care was a total mess back then.

    I hope you get into remission soon Sam, and that it lasts for many years.

    Love this quote. I was diagnosed last April and at the end of this month will be my anniversary of one year back home. Last year was rough but this year is looking a lot better so far.

    Hey Sam Congratulations!!! Whats the other options??? Its great to see how far you have come in just 12 months.
    You have been inspirational in how you have dealt with so many issues that have come your way.

    Good luck with the driving, and do you see yourself taking your driving test in the Tutu????
