The news is beginning to sink in.

Justin is not in relapse. He is still in remission. He will not have several more years of chemo. We do not need to start looking for a bone marrow donor match.

He has a virus. A virus.

Today I am praying, cleaning and pushing yogurt on Justin to help his stomach handle the siege of antibiotics.

Again, I thank you for unparalleled support and faithfulness to prayer. I will continue to update as we move forward.

I write from our backyard, where I am soaking some sun into my vitamin D deficient, pasty, hospital pallor. And I can see that my lilac bushes have bloomed again.
