's wedding

May 19, 2009

Another Gleevec Victory! Well, that sounds very dramatic, but for me it really

was.

and got married this past Saturday and it was and still is, totally

awesome. It was just over 3 years ago that I thought I had just been handed a

death sentence for my eldest child...... and right now, he is on a cruise and as

happy as one can be!

Their outside wedding was beautiful, they were beautiful and smiled and laughed

till their cheeks burned. The rain held off till all the photos were taken

and.......... well, everything was just perfect and beyond.

I expected to be emotional and I was, but what was really surprising was that

cml only crossed my mind once! Only once during that whole day. And that was

when I sent Dr Druker a huge, sincere and deep thanks for helping make this day

happen. Gleevec has really been 's Gold, but it has been ours too;

's, mine and all our family - we have all survived 's cml because of

it.

Saturday was a real celebration on so many levels and I just know that I am one

of the luckiest and happiest moms out there, with literally thousands of photos

to sort through and smile over.

A big thanks to all of you for being here, for the sharing, encouragement and

for helping me stay sane (whatever that is) over these past three years...

love and light

Annie

's mom
