We arrived home about midnight on July 29, and it felt so good to climb into OUR bed. Our trip home couldn't have been better. Dr. F certainly knows how to care for his patients. His driver, Vladimir, took us to the airport, set me up with the wheelchair transportor who then helped us get our boarding passes, escorted us to a special lounge, and then escorted us to our seats on the plane. We were fed three meals between 2:30 pm and midnight. I am afraid to weigh! We were well taken care of. We were also served breakfast before landing in ATL. We had a very brief layover and very courteous assistance before boarding the flight to Tallahassee. We were fortunate enough to have wonderful neighbors, Bobby and Sue Jackson, and friends, Jim and Lesa Cannon, who met us as we came down the ramp. What a blessing! Bobby and Sue got us home quickly, for which we were very grateful. We piled into bed and I am not even sure how long we slept. Since we arrived home five days ago, I have slept more than I can remember. I can barely stay awake more than four hours, but John reminds me I've never been through chemo and stem cell transplant so I just need to give in to it. Never have I been so willing to take someone's advice to be lazy!
I am still so grateful to have had the opportunity to take advantage of this treatment. I still don't know what God has planned for me, but I will listen to him and hope that He will use me in some way to help others
