PET Scan tomorrow
I am scheduled for my 6 month PET scan tomorrow. Would appreciate any and all prayers, good thoughts, etc. I am soooo scared. Hopefully I have myself all worked up for nothing. I feel good but I felt good when I was first diagnosed so who knows? I'm so glad I have this place to come to as you all know what I am feeling and going through. Let me just say - I HATE cancer!!!! Thanks for listening.
