Journal entry by Sue Funk

This afternoon I saw a rainbow. I thought of how much it must be a sign. It's true the doctors this afternoon gave me permission to leave, tomorrow morning I'm heading home. At home I will be in a bubble. Quarantining myself. Several doctors appointments per week will be necessary and gradually they will decrease my rejection meds.  I want to thank everyone who has taken time out of their day to share good words with me. It has meant so much. And I know my journey would not have been the same without you.  First and for most praise to our Lord. He has grace me with his healing hand. My family, husband and kids, you are my everything I fight because of each of you.  Day one I question being there for the future. Today i know i will be there!  And a special thank you to my "A Team"  A group of special craziness that came together to help me whenever I needed.  You helped me figure out the things. Tell me things that needed to be said and pick me up at my lowest moments. It meant everything that I could just pick up the phone and each of you would be there no matter what time of day. There were lots of laughs and lots of tears. You all mean so much to me that's why you are my "A Team" Julie Pojar, Gen Schultz, Lana Amenda, Brooke Jacobsen, Tina Catalano, Denise Nyguaard & Tim Kunick.
Love And Thanks.  I will truly be enjoying this ride home.
