Good evening. Well it certainly has been a beautiful day here in Pauline, SC. I really wanted to update you guys with the results of Jacey's scans on Thursday night when arrived home, however, due to a delayed flight it was much later when we arrived home, almost am and so therefore exhaustion had gotten the best of me. Of course Friday it was back to work and the whole routine of school, and then yes, we had planned a yardsale for Saturday(I know what was I thinking), so we had to get ready for that, and then had dinner with friends. Needless to say Friday was a whirlwind as well, and so now I have sat down for the first time...breathe:) I apologize to leave you hanging. Well I will begin by saying that Wen. night was long for me. During Jacey's scan on Wen. I thought that something was showing up that normally did not, and then the radiologist called for more scans of the leg, which alarmed me so, of course my mind was really going crazy. I asked was anything wrong and the tech said," no some radiologist just want different pics". Ok, so I thought whatever. Then, when we returned to our hotel room, Jacey's nurse called and asked could we come later than scheduled on Thurs.. All of which had my mind going crazy and all the while, I never mentioned my fears. So of course all night I'm tossing and turning doing the "what if" scenario and talking to God. Finally I feel asleep and it was time to get up on Thursday morning. Jacey had her CT scan scheduled for that morning at 8:30, so we got ready and headed over to the hospital. After the scan we ate breakfast, then went back to the hotel room to pack our stuff to get ready to check out at 12pm and await the appointment to meet with her doctors, which I thought would never come. Finally 1:30 and it was time, I could hardly wait to get into the room to get all the results. The door opened and Dr. Kopp said, "Wonderful news, perfect results." Wow, the elephant had lifted right off my chest. I could breathe. All the while sweet whispers had been with me throughout the night and morning, saying, "its all in my hands, have no fears and worries". Yes, I knew that in the back of mind I really should not worry and realized it many times throughout my thoughts, but reality is sometimes hard to shake. So with the wonderful news and gladness in my heart, Dr. Kopp and Dr. Hughes explained what I had seen on the scan was the area where her prosthesis ended and the bone in her lower leg began. So we discussed the upcoming future of what the year is to hold. Jacey will no longer have to get monthly chest xrays and lab work, here at home. However, she will still continue to travel to Houston for scans/blood work and her leg procedures every four months instead of every three.Which we will take. Each new milestone is one step closer to the five year mark, which is the goal we want to reach. After a celebrated checkup and visit with her docs we headed out, stopped for lunch and then to the airport. Only to get lost on the way, and almost missing our window of checking in. How does one get lost after so much travel in Houston? Travel Houston freeways without a GPS and you shall see:) That place makes me nuts with all the roads, joining, hooking, vering, twisting, and what not with arrows pointing to all different directions, not to mention the ten million cars you have to play leap frog with. Ok, so after all that the flight was delayed, isnt God good. We boarded our flight and here we are. With Mother's Day being tomorrow, I have to say that I have two of the best presents that money cant buy, I am home with Jay, Lawson, and Jacey, and not in another state 1000 miles away, and Jacey has reports of once again being NED(no evidence of disease). I celebrate this day tomorrow with great thankfulness that God has given me the gift of my children and the blessings that they bring me each and every day:) God has also given me the gift of motherhood, which I will forever be grateful for. I also celebrate my own mom tomorrow, she is a light that shines and I do thank her for all things she shown me and done for me in life. Celebrate and rejoice, not only in the sun but in the rain as well. Happy Mother's Day! Love, Holly
