Yessssssssssssssssssssssssssssss!

There's not really a good way to high-five my brain (although the old "oops-I coulda had a V-8" image comes to mind), so I'll have to find another way to celebrate.

The MRI looked good today--hooray! Looks like we'll be going to Chicago, after all. We found a way to navigate around the chemo schedule AND avoid missing Messiah auditions, so we booked our trip, and that's some more good news to share.

I'm writing this from my laptop computer while I get my toxic (but helpful) chemo drip for the next four hours. I also brought my Scrabble board with me, because another patient is scheduled to come in soon, and he's a big Scrabble nut like me. My husband and I had better sneak in a warm-up game before he joins us!

BIG THANKS to everyone who sent me floating into this day on their prayers. I felt those prayers, and they helped me a lot. I hope many of you will join me in a big prayer of thanks.
