Y'all... the word we've waited for... Yesterday, Dr. Jayani said the word REMISSION! My labs have been in the normal range since my transplant! God is so good. The power of prayer is real. God knows and has walked before us. I have work to do, because he is obviously not done with me yet. I guess He didn't want me to be bored during the global pandemic, so He gave me a project. 

Check out this graph of one of my labs.... take that Amyloidosis!

Most of you know that I dove right back into work. We are so busy. Just like I like it. Wesson is going to try travel baseball this fall and has signed up to play soccer. Since we'd be out there every Saturday, I said well lets see what Sanders acts like out there. The videos are always hilarious of little people playing soccer, so stay tuned for that. Sanders has also started tumbling at SayiWont and ballet at PPAC. Wesson had his first middle school dance.  Laynee's dad chaperoned, so we dropped him off at their house with flowers. Homecoming is next week, and Laynee has asked Wesson to escort her. We'll be picking out our dress-up days outfits all weekend if anybody is looking for me! He is loving Bridgeforth! We met all of the teachers at Open House and were very impressed. We are also celebrating Lori being named BMS Principal! It's an exciting time to be a Bridgeforth Bobcat!

Don't scroll past this part. This is where I tell you that the vaccine is necessary. Very smart physicians at Vanderbilt would not put this in my body if it wasn't a good idea. Yes, it sucks, but it can save your life. I will be getting a THIRD shot, even after my 104-degree fever, sweats, migraine, and chills that I had for almost three days. It still beats 8 days alone at Vanderbilt with Covid and a stem cell transplant. If you don't think you need the vaccine because you have antibodies, please go get your finger pricked regularly to confirm you still have antibodies. They don't last forever. We've worked too hard to get where we are. Vaccines keep you alive and likely out of the hospital. If you have a break through case, there are therapies available to pull you through. You have to play defense here... so we can be at Here's the Beef September 7-11!

See what I did there! Love you all!
