Good news

Doctor called me tonight. Hubby told me that I can go at full throttle with my marathon. Felt so good to hear from him with such wonderful news.

Been waiting over the weekend and finally heard from him. Phone rang @5pm and hubby picked it up since I was outside clipping some dead flowers outside. He usually don't pick up the phone but since my hands were busy, I said "pick it up" and he did. Doctor Cabasso was at the other end of the phone and hubby gave me the phone and said hi to him. I then said, got some good news for me there Dr? and he replied, yes! actually I have good news for you. While dr. was talking to me I signaled hubby to pick up the other phone so he can hear what the dr. says and he did. So both hubby and I are now listening to the good news. Doctor said "it's not cancer...it's just some scarring.." and so on reading the medical terms to us that none of us understands but we listened anyhow. He then added... "that is not a final reading as yet. There's more testing to do and nothing serious about it. I just want you to know so you don't worry too much. It's just scaring and nothing there to worry. I will let you know in a couple more days." At this time, my heart was jumping and thinking ahead. At the end of the short conversation with the dr. appropriately I addressed my greatefulness of his effort and concern.

So, we hung up the phone and hugged each other. But then I uttered to hubby, "opps not so tight, still not healed you know. He then said to me, " sorry but you can NOW go at full throttle with your marathon miSS Beng". I warmly said to him, yes and will start planning ahead. After a while talking to each other, I went back outside to finish up my work since it's getting dark and finally got to whelled down the "greens" trash can down to the curbside for tomorrow's trash day.

A good size of weight lifted off my shoulder tonight. And for sure hubby too. I can now plan things normally, huh, as if I have something to do, but you know what I mean. It's so different feeling, like anxiousness type when you are waiting and not knowing what is coming, but there's only two things that you know can happen and that is yes and no. But yes, it's negative!! yeppey dippy doo..

So onto doing more training for my marathon. I'm so happy that hubby have this stationary bike that he used to rehabilitate his knee couple of years ago. I was on it yesterday for 1.5 hrs. And today I did and hour and fourty five minutes and felt so good. At least I can do this to retain my resistance until my wound is completely heald. The bike is low impact on my body so I am happy with it.

Finally, we are so happy with this benign news. I can now plan for my training and for other things that are exciting, like cleaning up the house and make room for my Canadian friend and her family that is coming over during the marathon week..yeppey dippy doo..!!

good night all and take care of each other.
