My run with doctors is slowing down... today's exam by a third obGYN should be my last for about 6 weeks. He confirmed once again no fistula, and no additional surgery necessary. The scar tissue caused by radiation should repair itself with time and continued, increased, medication.
I felt so good after returning home that I rode my Vespa to town to do errands. This was the first time I got on it since my treatments started, I simply didn't have the energy. It was great - very freeing. I just smiled the whole time.
A Note from Debbie.....
It's been one amazing year and now I am happy to say I am cured. Please see below for my journey through cancer....
Hello my friends, on August 4, 2008 I was diagnosed with Cancer.
As you can imagine the initial shock was great, for me, Doug and our girls. We've now got a great team of colorectal doctors, learned a lot about what is ahead, and have gotten our minds wrapped around it. So now we are in the "let's get this thing out of here" mode and feel very confident that, with prayers and support of my friends and family, by next Spring I will celebrate being cancer-free.

Riding your Vespa and feeling so free, reminds me of what your Daddy uses to say about his Harley.
