      Hey Mike, missing you guys!
      Been trying to stay offline to kind of just enjoy my life I suppose. Been thinking about you. I just know things will end up okay for you. I have dreams about the people on here and I really believe in my dreams. Keep your head up Mike!! Much love!!!

      It feels very strange I guess. To know that I’m going to be okay. I feel like it’s going to be hard getting back to a normal life

      Hi Mike, 

      I think it’s mostly from the contrast injection in the IV. Made me feel ill all weekend. Luckily I’m feeling much better! ♥️

      Wow!!! That’s crazy! My grandfather was only involved with Pearl Harbor (was a nurse on base when they got bombed). I heard that Agent Orange still messes up children and adults. Blah! Bastards for sure.

      That is interesting. I've never had high liver levels. I would hardly consider my levels high so I was surpised he insisted on the scans. He even mentioned that he wanted brain scans? I don't know what made him change his course of direction so quick. we'll see. Hope you're feeling okay! <3 Much love.

      Do I have to get a referral or do you think I can do it myself? Cause I hate to offend people haha. I don't think he's uneducated at all but I definetly felt like he didn't think my cancer was all that serious and he had some better things to do. He did blood work but I highly doubt it will show anything even if it has spread.

      That is exactly how I feel!!

      My surgeon told me to really push for scans because im only 22 and he considers me high risk. My oncologist even said im high risk stage 2. So I'm confused haha
