Why the title for this blog?

I struggle with staying positive in the sight of adversity. It is very easy for me to dwell on the negative aspects of my situation and miss the blessings that come from the trial and so I will use this blog to help me stay focused on the rainbows of my life.

A Visit with Dr. Oken

Today I saw Dr. Oken for a follow- up of the PET scan. I was expecting to have him tell me that it was time to start the Rituxin rounds but instead he told me that because I am still in partial to full remission he was going to release me to go play and have fun. I have been placed on a three month schedule to get rechecked so my next appointment will be in June. He feels confident that the Lymphoma will not show its ugly head for another two years but told me that should I start to notice swollen lymph nodes or start getting sick more often that I will need to return right away.
It has been a good day!
