My wife, Erin, has been doing _great_ this past year. It's been 18 months since she ended chemo, 12 months since her surgery, and every scan has been great. (Though right now she has a nasty "seasonal cold" along with everyone _else_ in our house!)
I have a question for the men. I find myself, still, (though farther between each episode as time goes on) getting upset or worried or just "down" in my thoughts about the whole thing. The house will be quiet and I'll get bummed out and worried; things like that. I suppose that's normal, right?
It's as if, while I spoke about things feeling like "PTSD" without the "P" _during_ her cancer treatments, now it's feeling like real "PTSD".
Though not that serious or that often really. I'm more curious about how others are and if they get like that too.
Naturally, her test next month gets me thinking again, too...
