Gratefulness Episode 3

The results from the scan have come back. There was no sign of thyroid cancer anywhere else in her body.

All these weeks and months, I have believed that the treatment would work. That the surgery to remove the thyroid, followed by the irradiated iodine treatment, would rid her body of cancer. That my loved one would be among the 90-something% of people who survive thyroid cancer. I believed that, expected it.

But this result is what we've been waiting for. This result is the answer. No signs of cancer.

And again, I am grateful.
