Clean as a slightly dented Whistle

My oncologist walked into my office to give me my CT results in person. She said she rarely gets to do that with good news. Here is part of the report:

There is an arrow to the point on the CT results where it reads clearing of right nodule. That 4mm bright spot on my lung that was probably from XRT is totally gone!!! The other bullet point on the results says right breast with surgical changes and lots of metal clips. Yup I got a couple of markers in the left and multiple markers from where the tumor was removed in the right. But, thankfully, that is all that is there.

When I finally get my room set up I will have 3 items hanging up: Radiation Oncology Certificate of Completion, Clean Right Mammogram, Clean CT. Some people hang pictures, I like to hang negative medical test results. It's a cancer thing.

To celebrate I did a little baking (which follows a little booty shaking). I came home and baked some cookies while rocking out.

The yellow arrow demonstrates my quality control. It's important to test your work.
