Case History

Over the next three years, my tests for leukemia remained negative.
I wasn't out of the woods, but I was thrilled to be alive.
The smallest things made me happy -- enjoying a fine restaurant meal, looking in the mirror and recognizing the person reflected in it etc.

There were difficult times; my marriage ended in divorce, and we agreed not to use our frozen embryos.
 But while most of my friends were traumatized as they turned 40, I was thankful to get there.

My doctor tells me that my risk of getting the disease now is no greater than for the general population, I take nothing for granted.
Let's just say so far, so good.
