just another day in Gainesville…
Hi everyone, all is going well. I am feeling stronger everyday. I am a little shocked, I guess that I am still this weak. I walk around but I just feel unsteady. Like my leg muscles don’t belong to me. O’well, it could be the medications I’m on.
I am just so thankful I have had no infections, or fevers, or ADMITions to the hospital!!!! I love living in the camper and I do not want to get sick again! We are of course taking all precautions we can, and praying. I wear my mask everywhere!
We were told at clinic today (friday) that my bone marrow was “free of disease”. So that is a good thing. The PA also told us it would take a good 3 months for my blood type to completely change over to the donor. It must be really hard to make a new immune system 🙂
Life is good, and I thank God for every day I get. It is so beautiful here with all the oak trees and churches and old houses. I love you guys and will try to update again soon.
love karen
Yay for the good bone marrow report! What an answer to prayer! We had a great day today – sure wish you could have been here for it, too. Our church had a Family Fun Day at Shipwreck Island followed by a baptism in the wave pool. Sixty people were baptized!
God is God and God is good!
I love you and miss you!

yeah Karen-
I am so excited to hear you are recovering and the good news of no blasts. Each day 1 at a time and before you will know it you will be brand new. I remember with chemo its hard but the radiation, well that is a whole different storie. It is not surprising that you can’t drink fluids after that. But what is surprising is that you are able to eat. That is wonderful that will keep your strength up. I am so proud of you for putting up such a hard fight against this and you are winning. Thank God he is watching over you! Can’t wait for you to come home and maybe even back to work? Take Care and will chat soon.
