More importantly, we're back from Ma's visit to the vampire. Red's are still a bit low, but not falling. Whites are back to normal! WOOT! As of Tuesday this week, they were ZERO. Zip. Zilch. 0.00 was the reading. Doc's figured the whites would rebound from her first chemo, but not nearly this quickly.

She's getting stronger, able to get around better, and is beginning to eat bigger portions of lots more foods.

Progress!
Good to finally hear some positive stuff from you, Jim.

Well, after spending an extra 3.5 hours in scenic and beautiful O'Hare thanks to a delay on the inbound flight I finally made it home by 2AM. I got a few hours of sleep and came in for the morning to go through the stack on my desk and then I'm off for the afternoon.

We're taking the kids up to Yankee Candle in Deerfield, MA to see Santa, do a little gift shopping and generally get into the Christmas spirit. I do miss their auto museum greatly but the kids love walking through that place with all of their displays so it makes it tolerable.
