From Julia herself

March 21, 2009

Thank you for all of your prayers and I am doing quite well if I should say so myself.Feel free to e-mail me at my blogspot if you please.Thanks!
Love,
Julia

Thank you so much for all your prayers & support. We have been so touched by everyone's outpouring of love. We could definitely feel it while we were in Atlanta. We have been so glad to sleep in our own beds for a couple of nights. There's no place like home!!! We will be leaving tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon to head back to Atlanta. Julia has an appointment Monday morning at 8:00. They will be re checking her blood, bone marrow, and giving her more treatment at that appointment. If everything goes well at that appointment, we should be coming home that afternoon. Please pray for her blood counts to be good and for her to have a comfortable ride home. She was very uncomfortable coming home on Thursday, so we will talk to the doctors about that. We also want to pray for Julia to be a "rapid responder" with her chemo treatment. Julia has had a good week end at home, and we are so thankful for that. Again, thank you all for your support. We have never felt so loved.
Love,
Sharon & Jeff
