Celebrating Life

• If you are here from the Ultimate Blog Party, go here and Let’s Party!

My husband and I are celebrating nine years of marriage today. I am so thankful for him. He is my rock. He makes me laugh when I don’t want to.

He is my best friend. I don’t deserve him but God obviously thinks I do. :) Thank you Baby for being you and loving me unconditionally. It doesn’t seem like nine years. It feels more like FOREVER! The amazing thing is every day I fall back in love again. God is good! I am celebrating my life today because without him I would not be whole. He completes me.

As for the past eight months it has felt like an ETERNITY. From being told most likely cancer in my Thyroid, to insurance issues to cover the surgery and doctor appointments. As well as, being diagnosed with definite Thyroid Cancer. Ending with a treatment that left me feeling very alone for a whole week. However, today I am celebrating the life that God gave me more time in. To spend with my husband, my children, my friends, and my family.

God gave me another year to not worry. I was contacted less than 8 hours after my whole body scan on Friday by my doctor. The verdict, a clear scan! Praise God!!! Yes I have to have five years of clear whole body scans to be considered cancer free. But I’ll take a year at a time to enjoy my life. So if I slack here on Bona Fide Life for a few days at a time, it’s not because I don’t want to write but because I will be making the most of my life. So please stick around while I share my life with you even if it’s not every. single. day. :)

I hope everyone realizes how fast life can stop in it’s tracks. I sure did. However, I will be making the most of the time I have. I will be celebrating life.

Thank you to all of my friends and family for keeping me inspired and uplifted. Please don’t stop, I still have a long journey! And Chasin… thank you for being my strength and comfort… Happy Anniversary!
