My great-aunt Jill is in remission! After this long and difficult battle with leukemia, she found out yesterday that she is in remission. Allyson and I are going to St. Louis this weekend to see her and other relatives--it will be a great weekend in light of this good news.
For all of you that kept Jill in your thoughts, I share with you part of her e-mail:
"Once again, thanks to all of you who have held me in your thoughts and prayers these many months... This has indeed been an incredible journey, and I thank you for joining me along the way. Every single day is a gift. Never, ever forget that. We take so much for granted. As long as our life runs somewhat smoothly, it is so easy to accept it without realizing how important every day is. I pray that each of you will live your life with gratitude and grace."
Thanks for your thoughts. I hope everyone has a great day--I know I will!
