This morning I found out that Jason's tumor came back clean, the wounds are healing nicely and it is only a 10% chance that the growth will return. A nice big sigh of relief :)
Being there for someone when they have health concerns has proven to be a really interesting experience for me. I think for the most part by nature I am a care-giver. I want to help and make other people's lives a better existence. I guess that is why I am in the field I am in!! However, what I find most intriguing is that I have been really fortunate in my life that I have remained relatively healthy (at least physically...wink, wink) and I wonder if a time comes that my physical health deteriorates or I become ill for a long period of time who will play the role that I so often take on. The other piece of this that needs to be looked at is my ability to ask for help. I can admit that sometimes I can be just a wee bit stubborn. I know, I know...hard to believe but it does happen from time to time. My hope is that if it would come to needing to ask for help that I would release myself from my pride and just ask. Now, I need to make sure this post doesn't come back to bite me in the butt!!!
