Early Bird gets good results? Spending Day 98 in my “closet” with radioactive material before the sun has risen for the day. Scans and appointments today then a bone marrow biopsy on Thursday. My BMT teams may have a different idea of celebrating 100 days than I do but I guess we will just have to make time to celebrate afterwards.

In other news, I am officially back to Mom duty and I couldn’t be happier. Okay, this Mom duty is not even half of what I did beforehand but I get to hug on my babies and tell them how much I love them… in person! Thank goodness Terry can run our household with his eyes shut, because I’m more there for a high five and let me hold the baby so you can chase the other ones lol. Just kidding on the chasing, but just know that Terry has definitely earned a spot in the running of best Dad and Husband award for everything he does for our family. 

Hopefully as time continues, I will continue to get stronger and gain more energy especially since my kids have a list of things for us to do once “Mommy gets better”.  Currently Rowan has saved a $1.50 for us to go on the train that runs thru downtown LS, the beach, Spain and Disney World since he completed potty training while we were away. I’m somewhat regretting that I offered up a trip to Disney World as at last ditch effort of potty training before us leaving the kids. But then again, I’m so happy that maybe it was worth it.

As I sit here today, I am so thankful for my family and those who have helped us along the way. This journey hasn’t been easy, there are still days where I can’t eat because of the nausea. I find myself dozing off at times and forgetting what I was going to say but I know with each day that passes it will only get better. 

Which brings me to the present. I am currently waiting for my scans this morning, which will be the first scans since the bone marrow transplant. Then the rest of the week is filled with appointments and bone marrow biopsy on Thursday. We won’t met with the BMT team until the end of the month but the anxiety of all this can be felt now. There is so much unknown including how I responded to my transplant. Weekly blood tests are great, but this has the ability to show us things that blood cannot. It can also show us so much good and positive things as well. Time will tell the ultimate truth, but if it’s anything close to the high I’m currently riding from being with my family, I know we will only have positive things ahead.
