In REMISSION with a tattoo!!

NO MORE MEDICAL BRACELET!  That is right people!  As of 12:15 today I am in remission.  My counts were at a whooping 210,000, which is super high!  Oh my gosh I am so excited!  

Then came what I have wanted to do for so SO long.  I got my swirly sun tattoo!!  It was amazing!  It is very low down so pretty much no one will ever see it.  It is the size of a quarter, and it is bright orange!  Oh my goodness it is amazing!  I am completely in love with it.  I have waited so SO long.  I got the idea for this design when I was 14 and waited and waited.  And now at 25, after going through so much I finally have my baby tattoo!  Take a look at the link below, to get a look at some other photos, and then say goodbye to the tattoo, because it is lower than my pant waist line so no one will ever see it :)  

I can't say how SUPER excited I am.  I went through all those stupid meds, and chemo and it was all for something!  Thank you so much for all of you prayers, and thoughts!  I am possibly as happy as I was on my wedding day...not quite but awful close :)

Well a Fall Update

Hello everyone!  Once again time has just slipped away.  Since the last time we have had Halloween, and my Dad and Gary have come down to visit!  The link at the end of this report will help you get to the pictures.  I am having trouble uploading more than one picture to this blog.  I will see if this is just a one time problem, or I might have to switch blog spots.  No worries I will keep everyone up to date if that happens!

Life has been of course been busy but good.  Jacob and I are finally done decorating the house.  We finally hung pictures (well after Halloween).  We are happy with the way the house is turning out.  It is finally becoming a home.  We are very happy with it!

I can not believe it is almost Thanksgiving!  Where has the year gone?  I have my remission doc meeting on Tuesday Nov. 25th at 11:30.  I took a half day so when the doc says I am in remission I am going out to get my tattoo!  I am so excited!  I am POSITIVE I am in remission, I feel so fantastic, and healthy.  I will make sure to update everyone on that day.  Or around it at least, and with pictures of my tattoo :)  I just can't wait!  I am so excited!

Other good news is that our good (read FANTASTIC) friends Jeff and Sara have found their dream house!  We went and toured it about a week ago and love it.  They are hoping to close the first week in December!  We are so happy and excited for them!

I hope all is good with everyone!  Pray for remission - even though I can already feel it!
