MLK Day

One year ago today, we were sitting in the doctor's office at Mercy Hospital, waiting to hear the results of Braden's biopsy. I remember being annoyed, because I was reading a book on my Nook that was really getting interesting, right when the doctor came to call us into his office. Neither of us had any idea what was coming.

Now, a year later, it still seems like a complete impossibility that we could be diagnosed with cancer...even though we've been cancer-free for almost 6 months now!

For most Americans, today is a very special day, to celebrate freedom and justice, to remember the struggles of past generations, and to pray for more progress. For Braden and I, we feel as though we've been blessed to add one more thing to that prayer -- a Thanksgiving for a year of incredible changes and surprising growth. Thank you all for your amazing support.
