We don’t actually celebrate Thanksgiving here in Australia. But it doesn’t matter, that’s not really what I’m talking about. Right now, I’m thankful.
\nWe got some awesome news last week. And I keep forgetting to tell everybody. I think it hasn’t really sunk in yet. Last week, David saw his haematologist for his half yearly appointment. (For those of you who are not aware, in January 2002, David was diagnosed with Hodgkins lymphoma, stage 4B, which is about as far along as it gets. He underwent 6 months or so of chemotherapy, and went into remission)
\nWell, last week he got the all clear. The good “C” word. Cured. Never has to see the haematologist again. Nice knowing you, see ya!
\nAnd so I’m thankful. Dr Rosenfeld just gave me the most awesome Christmas present I could ask for. But like I said, it’s not sinking in. We were hoping for this verdict last Christmas, and I was pretty crushed when we didn’t get it. Now that we have it, it doesn’t feel real.
\nThe good news just keeps coming around here, doesn’t it?
\nI’m also thankful to Meadow for being my Knitpicks mule. See what arrived here yesterday?

\nThat would be two Autumn Rose<\/a> kits, one each for Ailsa<\/a> and myself. I’m not quite sure when we’re going to cast on, but just in case, Tangled Yoke is flying towards the finish line.
