Today is a special JOY for me!! My son is 18. Simple as that...He was 11 when I was first diagnosed; and like everyone else that gets cancer, I thought I wouldn't make it to now. Last year, I was in the transplant ward 8 hours away and very sad that I was missing his birthday. Today, I am baking his favorite cake, cooking his favorite meal and VERY happy to be here to be at his beck and call!!!

Love to you all...Maryann
