I got my results...

I had my Cancer surgery on Tuesday & then I got my results Friday...
All the Cancer was contained in my uterus and they got it all out, so now I am finally Cancer free!!!
I'm still in hospital & have a massive cut from the surgery, they cut me from just under my ribs past my belly button & down to my pelvic area. I'm getting better each day, I'm off all my drips and I'm on the Oncology ward at the Mercy Woman's hospital in Melbourne.

I think it will take a while for it to finally sink in to me that my cancer is all gone, are 2 years of bad news, constant tests & treatment it's a massive relief to be told its gone.
I have a lot of emotions going through me at the moment and I still have a long road of recovery ahead of me but I will get through it, one day at a time, one step at a time and of course one tear drop at a time.
I will never forget hearing the surgeon say "yes the cancer was there, it was contained in the uterus and we got it all", it was the longest sentence I think I've ever heard, to my mind it was like slow motion, I remember looking at Rob & I started to cry, for the first time in a long time they were happy tears & I knew we can finally start enjoying life again.
I'm still in hospital till Wednesday, the nurses are lovely, the food of course being hospital food is horrible.
I'm very lonely in here, I haven't had many visitors, just Rob, my brother inlaw & sister inlaw & my aunty, tomorrow I have a friend coming in to see me which will be good.

Night time is the hardest, I have a beautiful view and I can see for miles, at night time it looks so beautiful with all the lights, but with everything I'm going through its hard to stay strong and when I'm alone at night time I spend a lot of time crying, I'm struggling to cope but I will get through it.

Love always
