Yes, today is the one-year anniversary of Ed's diagnosis. It was exactly one year ago that we sat with Dr. Berkman and he informed us that, even without a biopsy, he knew it was cancer. Of course, Ed and I had our suspicions before that, but it was the day that the words were spoken and it was confirmed. I still remember that day so clearly. I tried to be strong for Ed and not show my emotions. He just sat there matter-of-fact, "Yup, I knew it!" The enormity and uncertainty of it. What a scary and sad day that was.
But the bright spot is that 1 year later, Ed is still here. At the time, we never thought about "one-year later". So tonight we celebrate and look back on how thankful we are that we had this year and that we are thankful for those like Dr. Bowers and his team that have helped us achieve this milestone.
Life is good... And here's to hoping we're able to celebrate again next year!
