He successfully fought the disease in 2015 and geared up, with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.swimmingworldmagazine.com\/news\/teamjeff-gofundme-started-to-support-jeff-julians-cancer-battle\/\">his vibrant #TeamJeff community<\/a>, for another fight.<\/p>\n<p>After last <a href=\"https:\/\/teamjefforg.wordpress.com\/2021\/03\/25\/and-life-goes-on\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">updating his blog in March<\/a> that he was feeling better and being optimistic that this was good news for his latest scans, he still expressed surprise to have them come back \u201cno evidence of disease, saying, \u201cit floored me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Julian continued:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p><em>It\u2019s all still a bit crazy to me. I read that report over 2 weeks ago now, and I think I am still processing it. Celebrating above all else of course, but there\u2019s really this crazy range of emotions and feelings that go along with it. Relief from having this hanging over your head all the time. That was a weird one, as I felt it physically in my shoulders and arms as things just seemed to \u201clet go\u201d. Then there\u2019s what I can only compare to as survivors\u2019 guilt. Twice now I\u2019ve stared having a year left and now twice seeming to get a new lease on life that so few get in my situation. It\u2019s humbling when you allow yourself to process it that way. Being able to allow yourself to see into the future just a little bit further than you\u2019ve been allowing yourself during this process. That light now shines a little longer into the future. The joy of being here with my family and getting to see my pride and joy do his thing. Getting to be in awe of Trenton\u2019s process, his drive, and his ability to handle anything and everything that is thrown at him\u2026 and to be better for it. Being able to plan a future with K, for us. Knowing what\u2019s important, what we have to offer, and making sure the focus is on our own wellness in the process. \u2026<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>So, with a huge smile on my face, a heart full of happiness and love, and a feeling of gratefulness that I will never be able to accurately describe, I share this news and thank all of you for being a part of my journey, supporting me, sending positive vibes and prayers, and every little thing that has meant so much to me.
