We (the husband and I) have landed in Philadelphia. I'm excited to be here for the Desmoid Tumor Research Foundation annual symposium. We landed late last night and spent today exploring the historic city. Today I felt emotionaly getting excited about what founded this country. I felt a sense of belonging to a larger part of the country that fights for what they believe to be just... to be right. Fighting is something I can relate to as every day since I was blessed (cursed?) with this disease I've been fighting. Mostly fighting to maintain normalcy and to beat the oppressions that a tumor can present.
A year ago, I was at the point where I couldn't wait to get to a bi-weekly routine of treatment. This year, I'm just enjoying living and spending a day with my husband. Every day that goes by that I don't think about last year... it something amazing. I'm excited for tomorrow but nervous for tomorrow.
