In 2019, my lower left lung was removed as it had a cancerous spot. That was followed by chemotherapy. In 2023, I still have no issues getting the all-clear with each scan. But that is not the real story. You get a sympathetic look as you visit the facility for your appointment.
However, in my last few visits, as the nurse looks through the chart, I get the surprised look of "Really?" It is like they cannot believe I survived. It is too great of an indicator that I have been the exception and not the rule. I would like to see that reversed.
