Just Breath ......

Move over David Blane ..... Amy Waxman is here to show you what it really means to hold your breath. According to the guiness book of world records, Blane holds the record for holding his breath under water the longest, 17 minutes and 4 seconds. Though I find this an impressive accomplishment, I have to say that as a cancer survivors wife, I have him beat. Not a scan takes place that doesn't cause my heart to skip beats while I hold my breath waiting for the results.

Though Andrew's second 3 month appointment with Dr. Staddon in Philadelphia is not until Friday, we have read and reviewed the scans with Dr. Felice and Andrew is still all clear. This is the greatest news that we could be given. And even the small spot that showed up on a previous scan as questionable has shrunk in size. As you can all imagine we are elated with the news and continue to move forward checking this 3 month appointment off the books. Andrew will continue to have scans every 3 months for the next 5 years.

Up next is trip to Disney that we are planning with Linda and Pete, Adam and Nikki for the beginning of May. We know that the next 3 month appointment will happen around that time as well but we continue to focus on the positive and plan for this trip.

So David Blane, you may be able to hold your breath and break a record, but I hold my breath all the time, just waiting ..... for the shoe to drop or the rainbow to appear. But at least for now, we've found the pot of gold and continue on the yellow brick road of life.
