Happy Halloween!

It is Halloween once again and I still cannot believe how fast the last year has gone. And to think, one year ago today I was wondering whether or not Greg would ever get his transplant. I believe we had already had 5 dry runs and we were both getting tired. Greg's body was starting to shut down and we wondered if he would make it through the cold season without getting sick, or worse, dying. But, we had our faith to guide us and our faith helped us through it all - from transplant to a number of upper respiratory infections, and two hospital stays for minor complications due to having his immune system knocked down to ensure no rejection took place. Wow! It is difficult to remember what life was like a year ago. Now, here we sit, with the rest of our lives ahead of us.

The problem for us now is figuring out what we want to do with the rest of our lives. Greg is an awesome Project Architect but I still cannot find my niche in this world. Given the fact that the roller coaster ride of post-transplant life can take a violent shift uphill at any moment, it is difficult for me to open myself to the possibilities that await for the security in our lives as they are at this moment helps me sleep at night and keep from having those roller coaster nightmares.
