full circle

Last night a friend told me she planted tomatoes over the weekend because she had enjoyed the taste of mine so much last summer. Such a wonderful compliment, don't you think?

Thank you all so very much for your comments, emails, phone calls, facebook messages and good wishes that poured in all day long yesterday; I feel overwhelmed by your love and friendship. Everything in my life seems a bit brighter with the knowledge that the medical problem I've had, whatever the cause, is not life-threatening. (I felt fine all weekend and Monday; Alexi thinks it's arthritis. My doctor started me on a medication trial for reflux.)

I wish you a happy Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday! And so glad to hear that everything was a-ok on your scan. My mom had lung cancer (unrelated to smoking). They caught it early, and she is now perfectly healthy and cancer free (after a lung removal). But every time she goes in for her routine scan, it feels like we are all holding our breath for 2 days. Everything is slow motion. I had that feeling reading your post. And I was so glad to see that you are alright. Your intense immobile hour of reflection was moving and poignant. Thanks for sharing!

Always nice to be able touch base socially with your doctors, Lecia. You are not just another face to them then. Little League games are the perfect opportunity!
Let us know how the medication trial goes.

Lecia, I read your post about the scare yesterday and got called away before I could comment--but I want you to know you've been on my thoughts and in my prayers. I am happy you are feeling more optimistic today. You sure have a lot of wonderful, happy moments to live in around you. All my love, Lecia. Take care of yourself and keep us posted.
