Another Miracle

I spent a month in Utah. It was wonderful seeing my dad every day. I was amazed by his strength and attitude and by how well he was doing! But when I had to leave on Monday it was a difficult good-bye for both of us.

While neither of us said it out loud, I know we were both wondering if this might be the last time we would be together. We cried a little and hugged a lot. And I stalled my departure as long as possible.
When I landed I had a new voicemail message from April that said something like this:

"Hey Diana I hope you had a good flight. I'm just calling to let you know that Dad had an appointment with the doctor today and they couldn't find any leukemia in his blood. Call me back."

WHAT!?!?

This doesn't mean that he is cured but it is certainly great news. And we are happily celebrating yet another miracle in this journey.
I'm so happy for you, Daddy and I will be seeing you soon! Keep up your amazing fight.
