This used to be the story of Roger's battle with leukemia, his bone marrow transplant, recovery and subsequent relapse. It has now transitioned...into a blog about transitions.

Gratitude
Day 31 post-transplant
Today is a day to appreciate life. The sun is shining brightly. We've talked to many friends and family on the phone and will continue to do so as the weekend goes by. We're listening to an audio book and Roger is watching an NBA game in the background with no sound. Soon, I'll start making a nice little Christmas dinner; a chicken instead of a turkey, all the nice things in miniature.
Roger has had a few good days in a row. He feels well, eats well and wants to go outside for a walk. He seems to be getting stronger each day. Is this a trend? Christmas is a good day to be alive!

...maybe Christmas he thought, doesn't come from a store...maybe Christmas perhaps, means a little bit more...
ReplyDeleteOkay, okay. When I get too sappy I can count on you to call me on it!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas Candi & Roger. You've had a lot to deal with and are coming up on the New Year like a Lion (wait...that's the Spring/Winter thingy-the lion and the lamb??) Oh Never mind! Merry Christmas & carry on!
ReplyDeleteMerry Christmas! So happy to hear things are going well. I hope Rodger's appetite stayed strong for such a yummy dinner.
