Life is so full of milestones. As individuals we reach milestones all throughout our life and now that we have children we get to relive our youth and see all of their wonderful and momentous milestones as well.Our family has now reached a milestone we never imagined we would reach. One year ago our lives were turned upside down and we got the shock of a lifetime. The month of October in the year 2010 is such a blur that it is a good thing Roland kept track in a small calendar of the appointments we went to and when. It feels like a lifetime ago, yet it feels like just yesterday that a doctor told us Roland had cancer.
What a wave of emotion we went through. Would the surgery take care of it? Would he have to have further treatments? We lived appointment to appointment wondering and waiting.
Now one year later and with oncologist appointments ever 4 months now we can say that we have reached the 1 year mark and that the surgery was truly a success.
We spent this weekend celebrating with friends and family this momentous milestone. To many more healthy years together.
We can't tell you how blessed and relieved we feel. We know so many others who are and were not this fortunate and we feel like we are truly lucky.
