Two Years Ago Today...

I was resting comfortably in my first hospital room at Hahnamann Hospital in downtown Philly. I absolutely cannot believe that two years have gone by so quickly.



I came home this morning from a weekend trip to Scranton, PA to visit some friends I've been missing and have some cuddle time with their new baby. When I checked the mail, I had a card from the Elske's. It was a get well card (I recently had some minor knee surgery) and inside was Charlotte's basketball picture. God is so good! That I received the card on the morning of my 2 year donation anniversary is just PERFECT timing. Charlotte even signed the card in her own hand.

Charlotte had her 2 year post transplant check-up last Thursday and her doctors said that she is doing "perfect, perfect." They told Amy and Lon that they should now be less concerned with relapse and more concerned for long term effects of the treatment which is such great news! She is really doing great. Playing team sports and going to school several days a week and being a wonderful big sister to Molly. This has been such a wonderful experience to be a part of and I'm so thankful for this opportunity.

Life, otherwise, is great. Nothing major or new to report. I just can't believe how quickly two years can go by and I'm very much looking forward to another opportunity to visit the Elske's (hopefully) this summer.

Happy March and enjoy the renewing that is Easter and Spring!
