Happy one week anniversary to me!
Seriously, I think it finally hit me today: I am on the "other side." I am no longer waiting, just healing. No longer wondering, just watching in awe. How amazingly blessed and lucky am I?
I still have trouble with typing long posts, so please bear with my couple of short ones per day -- trust me when I say it's for your own good not to hear my rambling!
Today I am just grateful for time with my wonderful family and godmother, texts and messages from friends, and little blessings like the promise of Sammy at home. Oh, yeah, and I've been on ROOM AIR most of the day! I even had some coke to celebrate (so crazy, I know - call me a rebel) and of course took in some nice long naps.
Happy anniversary, lungs! I am grateful beyond expression!
