I am in tears as I write this and I don't quite know if it is the holidays getting the best of me or just shear joy...Carli's chest xray was clear and her blood count was back to normal! Dr. STallings took her off of her iron pills for now and said that he doesn't think that she will need another chest scan of any kind until June!! And then he thinks he will just do a Chest X-ray and not a CT scan. She was so happy when she called. She absolutely hates the CT scans because of the prep that she has to drink (the "nasty"), so every time that she doesn't have to drink that stuff she is so thankful.

I am so thankful for continued healing for her so that she can continue to get on with a normal 24 year old life. She is now on break from school and said that she was going to spend the rest of the day cleaning b/c their apartment is a disaster! Studying, finals and Jeremy being gone on the road has taken it's toll. Then this weekend she is going to Washington, DC to visit Rachel, and then next week to Michigan for Christmas...she really doesn't have time to deal with any type of illness :) Praise God that she doesn't have to :)

Kelsie is upstairs still trying to unpack and figure out where to put/store things. Quite a task with limited space. And trying to get ready to move back to GCC. She had a great time visiting last week.
