Ryan had his normal appointment Friday and his counts were about the same. It was his shortest appointment yet...
we were DONE in 2 hours!
Then we were off to UMC
Ryan went to drop off Thank You's to some very special staff.
It was a VERY emotional visit for Ryan. He really hesitated going in and upon leaving he still couldn't believe he was there. We saw the Transplant Coordinator and she said that some patients are NEVER able to come back because it is too overwhelming.
Ryan is VERY grateful for the wonderful care he received, but still has a hard time getting past what went on behind these doors:

Ryan was too worn out from the days activities to carve a pumpkin, but he did help supervise and even got in a little nap
Here are Ryan's two FAVORITE girls:
(I exist!)

Ryan had a FULL weekend:
He got out to show support for my Mom
Yay for a BEST presentation win!
Ryan had a blast hanging out with the kids
We even got a family pix
He enjoyed watching this little one...
He even got out to the park...
to watch these two:
and i do have to give credit to this little one who has taken a few of the photos on some previous blog posts
YAY to feeling good and getting out...
what a BLESSING for good health and life.

So many things made me smile in this post.
1- I am so happy to see Ryan looking like Ryan and playing with his family.
2- Seeing your cute face Margie.
3- Ryan's courage and gratitude displayed simultaneously as he delivered those thank you's
4- Your insanely adorable babies. Hallie's getting freckles...that is just too cute! And Max, well he is a little man now and a stud at that.
5- Hallie, your little mini-me photographer.
This post felt so much like life as it used to be, back on the old blog. How fun to have cancer take a back seat to business as usual.
I love you guys! Keep enjoying life and please put on some pants. I might just cry if I see that you are STILL in shorts once November hits.
Great pictures!!! SO happy to see some of YOU Margie....I'm so happy Ryan has been feeling good enough for spurts of time to get out and about!!! Too bad I missed your mom's chili! We didn't go until after the cook-off darn it! I'm so happy Ryan's getting to enjoy this AMAZING WEATHER!!!! I can only imagine how tough going back to UMC was!
