Oh, I can assure you that my wife and I share EVERYTHING about this cancer. We never would have gotten this far if we kept anything from the other.
I was just referring to the patients fear of the cancer's return. Each day I think about it a little. People on this site are very familiar with another Mike who was cancer free for five years, and then it was found suddenly to have metasticized in other places. He was my inspiration to be here. And every day, I think about him a little. But, if I awoke each day and said "Good Morning honey, I'm worried about this cancer thing today," She would think I was nuts! Or she should.
I am not looking back or being pessimistic ...... I'm just being realistic. My Dr said there are two types of cancer... The turtle and the squirrel. Those of us with bc have the squirrel. It moves fast when it moves and it seems a constant threat.
But I really am planning on living a long, loooooonng time. So all of you will just have to put up with me.
