May of 2025. I had no idea how much my life was about to change.
Leukemia became part of my vocabulary. Hospital rooms became familiar. My calendar went from clients and projects to treatments, appointments, and counting down the days to my bone marrow transplant.
There were days I was scared. Days I was exhausted. Days when getting home and back to the life I knew felt very far away.
And then, little by little, came the milestones. The transplant. Recovery. Coming home. Getting stronger. Seeing friends and family. Working again. Decorating again. Feeling more like me again. ❤️
So Blood Cancer Awareness Month is personal.
I’m incredibly grateful for how far I’ve come since then, and I’m thinking about everyone whose calendar has just been turned upside down the way mine was.
Keep going. I’m rooting like hell for you.
