WBC Normal!

The day I have been waiting for has arrived.  My white blood cell count is NORMAL!  That means that my body is able to fight off infections and bacteria.  And it also means I can eat fresh fruit and salads.  Ahhhh....happy days again!

I am feeling terrific.  Rick and I spent Friday, Saturday and Sunday babysitting our 2 year old and 5 month old grandsons.  What a great way for me to feel normal (even though I had to have help carrying Emerson).  I was exhausted Sunday evening but Rick was too so guess I can't use cancer or chemo as an excuse for being old:)  Ethan and Rick had colds and I escaped getting them.  Of course Ethan instructed me constantly to put on my gloves or not pick him up because "the doctor said so"!  The innocent words of a two year old.

I just booked our Florida vacation at our favorite spot.  Unfortunately we will be going a little later than planned because they were booked but I couldn't care less as long as I get to the ocean!  We have a balcony that looks right into the ocean so if it is cold or rainy I won't mind!  Life is good.

It looks like I am getting closer to the "results" part of my journey.  I am enjoying every day and thank God for it.  Even though there have been side effects from all of the things on my journey I feel so blessed.  It is the new me and I will enjoy the life God gave to me.

Therefore, if any man is in Christ, he is a new creation. Old things have passed away; look, new things have come! — 2Corinthians 5:17
