I've lost count on how many scans I have done within the past 8 years, but it's safe to say that I'm still in the clear. This scan in particular was great. Normally, my CT scans are pretty good - but there have been scans where they found Ground-glass nodules (GGNs) which are hazy lesions [...]
This scan was the Perfect End to a Perfect Year! Thank you to everyone for your endless support, love, and prayers. xoxo, Cam
This was the extra scan requested because of the nodules that they found from my last scan which was about 3 months ago. Super grateful that my sister was here to ask all those tough medical questions that I forget to ask when I'm there! But everything is looking good and my next scan will [...]
Totally a good day - well as good as it can be! The CT and MRI scans was overall good; the only drawback was that they found more nodules on the right side of my stomach. But according to Dr. Pillarisetty there is nothing to worry about but just in case I have to do [...]
A little over a month after giving birth, I went in for my routine MRI/CT scan. As you can tell from the title, my scan was great!! So now instead of going every 4 months like I was doing before I got pregnant, I am now schedule to go every 6 months. Thank you to [...]
When I first found out I was having surgery, one thought that came to mind was ‘I wonder how big the scar will be?'. I assumed it would be this ittybitty incision, and that it would be easy to cover up but boy was I wrong. I woke up to find my entire stomach covered [...]
Scan #7 was pure Heaven! So grateful to have my sister Di and her little ones join me to my SCCA appointment!!! Thank you to everyone for your endless support, love, and prayers. xoxo, Cam
Scan #6 is all about SMILES & THUMBS UP! And while I’m living on the edge, I decided that standing on a swivel chair was my way of celebrating another successful scan! Thank you to everyone for your endless support, love, and prayers. xoxo, Cam oh...and Happy Pi Day!
High Five to Scan #5! Since I've been showing great progress, instead of having MRI & CT scans every 3 months, Dr. Pillariesetty recommended MRI scans every 4 months until I reach my two year mark. And if all goes smoothly from there on, the hope is to reduce these scans to every 6 months. [...]
We're all blessed with milestones- occasions that come around each year that you either dread or celebrate, or perhaps both. The most common -- birthdays -- are universal and completely out of our control, but you never forget your birthday (even if everyone else does). Anniversaries, in the most common form, are the day you [...]
Scan #4 was SUCCESSFUL! yay! As you can tell by my leg, it was all ready to start doing the 'Nae, Nae' dance but my niece Jaci does it better!!! Don't you think?!?
Why I started blogging... Caringforcamille.com emerged soon after I was diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma in the summer of 2013. While I was recovering at Evergreen Hospital from my first surgery, my sister Diane commented that I should consider starting a journal. So I did…I wrote about my thoughts, the pain, hospital food, etc... just about anything [...]
