Happy Halloween

I am not really in to dressing up for this particular holiday...it is 'celebrated' largely for my kids. However, I am wearing (my new Harley) orange shirt. Does that count?  

We Did It!

Jamie and I completed our very first 5K! Granted we walked most of it however there were a few bouts of sprinting/slow jogging as well.

Following is a picture one of the other racers took of Jamie and I walking before the race; they were kind enough to send  it to me, so I thought I would share it with you guys.

Getting Back Into The Thick of Things

Had my first meeting with the organization Apollo contracts with for displaced employees. I got some really good feedback and am looking forward to getting back to work. Wouldathunk?!?

October 2013 BeTheMatch.org Walk/Trot/Run

I am thrilled to be doing my first "race"even though I have no intention of doing anything but walking. AND my daughter is doing it with me!!!  

One very small way for me to give back to the organization whose connections gifted me with life. 

And thanks to all of you that have supported us in our efforts. 

Six Months and Counting!

While I have yet to see the official report, my doctor indicated that the initial report for my six-month checkup showed no evidence of the disease. Woo hoo!

They have started to reimmunize me. I received six shots in one day, and proudly wore my Band-Aids home to show my kids. Shots are a big deal for them after all.  

Thank you everyone for being so supportive of me and my family during the past year. It would have been so much harder to deal with without.
