A 2nd Anniversary

 Well now, on April 27, 2023 it will have been 2 years since I was officially diagnosed with Stage IV lung cancer.  I wasn't all that up for celebrating a year ago on the 1st anniversary of my diagnosis, but this time I'm a little more celebratory.  Or at least, happy to have another year gone as I live with this lovely disease.  As you may recall, initially I wasn't sure I would make it a year.  So to make it two years still in relatively good health and still taking Tagrisso as my main treatment feels pretty good.  There have been ups and downs, good days and bad days, hell good weeks and bad weeks, but overall I'm still doing pretty well.  The treatment is not without its downsides, but its still significantly more tolerable than most chemo regimes are.

So here's hoping I get many more years out of my current treatment regime!
