for now, we CELEBRATE!!!

Today was the day. The phone rang. National Jewish popped up on my screen & Dr. Olson's voice was on the other end. There was no time to get nervous about the impending news or even think. I could tell from her, "Hellllooo Toni" that she was very excited! It was all good. She said she couldn't wait another minute to call me. She'd just spoken with Dr. Feiner and had most of the lab results. The blast cells were simply gone and I DO NOT have leukemia right now! She said, "for now, we celebrate!" It was so great to hear her happiness and relief through the phone.

I know I'm still in the high risk catagory for developing these cells & I very well could have to go through this again one day. For now though, I am overjoyed and thankful for this undeserved blessing of Good Good news!
