Days 28 and 29

Today was Mom and Dad's 38th anniversary! Rheanna called and sent some balloons to the room and I called the nurse and asked if there was anything special that could be done for them. She was able to call down to the kitchen and they sent up a special cake for them to share at lunch. They both sounded very surprised and happy! I was glad that Dad was able to get the day off to share it with her.

Things continue to move along in recovery. She is gaining strength back daily(she doesn't think so, but we see a marked improvement), she's walking more laps now than she could when she first went in to the hospital. Her white blood cell counts are coming back as they should, so once the eating and drinking are under control, they'll let her out to come home. That doesn't mean that we are out of the woods or that she is cured, but we are well on the road to recovery and winning this fight! Many more long days are ahead of us, but we are strong, we are confident and WE WILL WIN!

And next year at this time, who knows - maybe they'll be in Hawaii for their anniversary!
