I wanted to post another update before my scan tomorrow, just to give a little update of how things have been going lately.  Scanxiety is creeping in.  I could feel my chest and throat tighten as I write this and time inches closer to my scan tomorrow.  A feeling I have that comes every three months.  Reality sets in that this will be my life from now on.  After each scan I focus on just living, but then as we near the end of the three months, I feel anxiety for what’s to com
