Remission Update

The past 3 months flew by pretty quickly, and earlier this week, we travelled to Seattle for my 5th (and last) bone marrow biopsy of this year. While not without pain, it was a relatively smooth procedure once again, and I was lucky enough to find out that I am still in remission. I had held out hope that the results would match up to how I had felt in the past few months, but anything is possible, so hearing the actual word was relieving. 

I get to keep on keeping on until March, when we'll go back for another bone marrow. After spending the past few months getting some extra rest and allowing myself to process some of the things I had pushed through over the past few months, I finally feel like I'm ready to move on a little bit with my new normal. 

I'm especially looking forward to what I'll consider my first winter in Montana. This time last year, I was unknowingly starting to feel the effects of leukemia, making most of December and early January nearly unbearable. However, this winter will be a different story, with much to celebrate and winter sports fun to be had. 

Until then...Happy Thanksgiving from the Krutzpack to your pack.
