Today was a great day! I slept in a little bit at the hospital and spent some quality time with Momma while we waited for me to get discharged. In order to be sent home, I had to clear enough of the Methotrexate out of my body. The nurses took blood every 24 hours or so to measure these levels, and my 2 pm, I was good to go!
I came home just in time to take a quick shower and watch the Billikens take on Xavier in the A10 semifinals. Unfortunately, we lost, but played hard! I am disappointed I couldn't be there, but my team looked great on tv! Way to go Bills and Saintsations! Towards the end of the game, I thought I was dreaming when 5 of my best friends at SLU walked in the door. Greg, Johnny, and Ali (Clevelanders) and Wolf and Andrew all came over! Wolf and Andrew drove all the way from St. Louis and I could not believe we were all sitting in my living room. Truly a dream come true to be reunited with my best friends. I can't wait to spend more time with them this week while they are on spring break. So blessed to have them in my life.
We had a relaxing night and watched Hugo (fantastic by the way!) and now I am headed to bed. Wiped out from just one day out of the hospital. Counting all my blessings as I am falling asleep. God sends us little blessings everyday despite hard times, mine are always disguised as friends. Much love and peace to all...have a wonderful night.
RELAX
ReplyDeleteTHERE IS AN ANSWER TO THE DARKEST TIMES.
IT’S CLEAR WE DON’T UNDERSTAND BUT THE LAST THING ON MY MIND
IS TO LEAVE YOU.
I BELIEVE THAT WE’RE IN THIS TOGETHER.
DON’T SCREAM – THERE ARE SO MANY ROADS LEFT.
Mika-relax

Hey Team Evans,
ReplyDeleteNan here. Emily, I just want you to know you are the most beautiful "short haired" woman in the world! Seriously.
Your great Grandpa Evans used to say he lost his hair because he ski-ed sooooo fast down the big hills. He was a natural athlete, just like you. . . (: It must run in the family. So glad you got to go home early. Rest, peace, friends, family. YES.
Much love
Hello Dear Emily and Team Evans -
ReplyDeleteJust wanted to let you know you are in our thoughts and prayers. Em - you are so beautiful. And man do you look like your mom, just as your dad said in his post!
Just wanted you to know that hugs are reaching from Edgerton all the way up to Conover!
Keep the faith, and keep smilin' ... spring is in the air, and you are getting better and better by the day.
XXXXOOOOO
