        There was also minimal pagetoid spread and no ulceration. WLE came back completely clear.

          Thanks for the response! My life the past year and a half has been incredibly hectic (I’ve been in nursing school since the dx), and this is the first “break” I’ve really had since. I believe I kind of just pushed it off and moved on without really processing it, and now that life has slowed down some I’ve started thinking about it more, which I know is the wrong thing to do. I’ve struggled with anxiety (specifically social/health) since childhood so something like this really kind of rocked my world as far as that goes, even though I know I am SO incredibly blessed and it’s silly to be so worrisome. The situation could’ve been much worse and I am thankful that it wasn’t. I’m working towards healing, or learning to live with, my anxieties and talking about it and knowing every aspect of the situation just seems to help me. Again, thank you for the response. ❤️

              I will go and read your story. Thank you for the encouragement and kind words. I know I am lucky and have so much to be thankful for, the anxiety of the unknown just becomes a bit much for me sometimes. I’ll be praying for you and your husband as well. ❤️ I hope you have a merry holiday!

                  Thank you so much. ❤️ I can’t imagine it being one of my children, I’d much rather it be me. I’m so glad to hear that his scans show NED! That is amazing. Thank you for the kind words and reassurance. I hope you and your family have a great holiday!
