Fifteen Years Since Cancer Diagnosis

 It's approaching 2023 - the saga started in mid 2007 - surgery in December 2007 - so it's been fifteen years.    What have I learned in the last 15 years?  Am I wiser now?   I think so.    I've asked myself how I would react if a received another cancer diagnosis or one that is serious with a much shortened life expectancy.   I'm pretty sure I won't be shocked, surprised or stunned.   It makes sense to lower one's expectations of health and vitality as we age.   The young and healthy tend to have delusions of immortality or at least,  a long life.  There is no doubt I thought I could avoid any dealing with doctors especially oncologists.
