January 16, 2009 - Do I Eat Cake?

So one year ago today I had brain surgery and was told I had cancer. Brain cancer of some sort yet to be determined at the time. I'm not sure what you do to for such a thing a year later. Is it an anniversary? Kami asked if I feel victorious. I guess so. I answered that I feel surreal. Victorious is how I would feel after climbing Mt. Everest. All of this just happened to me. The outcome was God so he is victorious but he is always victorious. I dunno, do I acknowledge today? What do you do to really celebrate your life? To me it is to live everyday with integrity and honor of God for giving me one more day. To live a life useful and praiseful to him. I do not know God's plans for me but of this I am sure, for each day I am here I want it to not be in vain or focussed on things lacking eternal significance.
So alas, there was no cake, no balloons, or flowers. Just a call from a sister and best friend. The doctors count me "cancer free" (they will not use "remission" with me because my cancer is guaranteed to come back or some medical foolishness reason) as of 11/11/2008 because that was the post treatment appointment.
That's all for now.
