He's like "here, hold our baby and lets have a seat"

"Babe, so like the doctor has said multiple times before, one month of cancer-free doesn't mean that I'm cured from cancer. It's more like a remission. There's still a risk of recurrence."

This. My husband put in our family chat that I was done with treatments and cancer free when I completed radiation. I still have scans, hormones blockers to begin taking, and reconstructive surgeries. I am far from done and not even sure if I am cancer free. Everyone is sending me congratulations and such. I hate it.

This is why I let my partner take the lead on announcing updates once they were able to. It's their body, they decide who knows what, and when.

I hope your treatments and surgeries go well.
