Here we go again. I got the reminder call from SciencePark Imaging about my upcoming PET scan. I had so thoroughly decided to be well that I forget about these momentary forays into the world of the unwell. I've half a mind to just not show up. Except of course I know I won't get away with that for long.
Its not that the test is unpleasant. Just the usual pinches from needles and IVs, the yucky tasting stuff to be ingested, the lying still, breathing patterns, taking an entire morning of your life. I know I should be grateful that I have insurance, that I am not in pain, that I have a competent medical facility right here in this city, and I am.
But.
But I just want to live my life without being a cancer survivor. I just want to be well and not constantly facing a new battle with a dread disease. I am feeling so much better. I am getting my feet down and my old self back. I don't want to plunge into the mire of chemo and radiation and surgery.
Well, its not until Thursday. I have time to ignore it and get stuff done. And I will do just that!
