Absolute Remission!

So.....

I has been forever since I blogged. Facebook is just so much easier! Emily is... and only a sentence. This blogging stuff makes me think too much. However, this news requires a formal press release.

The final high resolution tests have been done. The port has been removed. Oral meds have ceased. We are in absolute remission! Done!

I can't say that life feels a lot different. We have a check-up this Friday, so the trips to Chapel Hill haven't stopped.

But, I will tell you this. Last Friday (not yesterday, but the one before).... that was the first day that I felt almost normal since April of 2007. All three of the sweet children were at school. I washed dishes. I folded clothes. I made a sandwich for lunch. I read a little.... Nothing extraordinary happened. In fact, nothing happened! A day with nothing..... It was nice! And I felt normal..... as normal as a Southern, stay at home mother of 3, Mormon Bishop's wife, Democrat, musician can feel! :)

So not really "normal".......but OK! I'll take it!
