@grandmar- Ronnie, I couldn't be happier for you! You are a survivor. Adenocarcinoma can be a slow-growing cancer and is a common type of cancer especially among women. After your wound heals more try adding some light weights and keep up the great work! Doesn't that relief feel just phenomenal?

Thank you!!
I'd like to think I am a survivor. Some days I wonder. I guess we all have those days when it seems like everything hits you at once and all you want to do is cry!
Yes, this kind of cancer is slow growing. I've had this particular nodules for 7 years that I know of. Could have had it longer. The doctor told me that if this was to grow back, it probably wouldn't be for 15 or 20 years. I'm 65 now.
Good idea about the weights. I used to lOVE weight lifting. I ripped my shoulder twice doing it. Since my cervical surgery less than 3 years ago, I have to be very careful. I baby myself as to not get hurt!
Yes, the relief feels AMAZING, like a ton of bricks were lifted off my shoulder and chest!

Have a wonderful day!
Ronnie
