18 Months Post Transplant

Last night as we were sitting by the fire outside on our first post transplant vacation (more on that later) I watched you run around, encouraged you to come and "relax" by the fire then watched you run around some more.  For a split second I felt frustrated, wanting to just sit and relax but as quick as the feeling came it was gone... I smiled and watched you, never stopping---I am so thankful.  Eighteen months ago we were on day zero, waiting for the bone marrow to arrive from Germany, your body didn't have any of its own, it was such a critical time---and look at you now.

Today, here you are, so full of life and a force to be reckoned with.  Happy 18 months post transplant my girl we love you, another milestone achieved.
