Improvement..

Hospital visit on Friday revealed some really good lab results...platelets etc..
Becky still has signs of GVH, but some improvement in this area, though believe it or not, the GVH was 'attacking' her mouth, tongue. Some very sensitive areas. But now, these areas are less painful..plus a new med has helped! Yes, another med, but this one easy to administer, and will only be around as long as the mouth has issues. So, overall not bad. She feels pretty good, though she does tire easily. Her leg strength will increase upon the reduction of the darn steriod. But for now, the steriod must be our 'friend'. A spoonful of sugar helps this one go down.
Becky being home to celebrate Abbey's birthday was also a good way to help the medicince go down. Last year Becky was in the hospital during Abbey's Bday..So it was joyous to shop a bit, have a joyous meal at home, and watch Abbey blow out the candles! We embrace these small life triumphs! We give thanks for these postcard moments.
Hope you are seeing life triumphs and postcard moments...Don't let the Grinch rob you of joy and peace.
Take a breath, say a prayer, Thank God, and go forth.

Much Love, celebrate life.

Bill, Becky and Abbey
