I was blown away as I opened the package Joyce and David sent. I was crying as I tried to read all the notes and wishes sent with the bead and necklace.

It is humbling to realize and accept all the love sent my way by the bead community and BCN. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!

Dee takes me back to the hospital in the morning for course #5 of chemo so I don't have time this evening to read all the notes. The necklace is overwhelming. I think you all understand how much this means to me.

The love and care sent my way is working. We believe I am in remission at this time but I will take more chemo to make sure. Then I move to OHSU in Portland for stem cell harvesting and transplanting. With your support we will make it through this adventure.

Thank you all. I love you all.
