Just popping into quickly to wish you a Happy New Year. Whatever you plan to do to ring 2011 I sincerely hope you’re with the ones you treasure most.

I will be celebrating the New Year by leaving the hospital. I have been here for one week and I can honestly say I can’t wait to get out of here. I’ve got a longer post rolling around in my head about this experience that I will post next week, but for now, all I have to say is: thank-you.

Thank-you for the comments, emails, messages, thoughts and prayers. This month of December has been very trying for myself, Marc and my family. It has helped us all so much knowing that you have taken the time to drop me a note, think of me, and just simply be around when needed.

As for my health? Well, I’m on the way to becoming healthy again. Ulcerative colitis is a very tricky disease and thanks to the amazing doctors and nurses at the hospital here in Herentals, I’ve been able to get back on track. I have had some low moments this past month but I’m coming around and looking forward to the year ahead.

Alright, enough mumbling about hospitals and sickness. This is a happy time. I’m can’t wait to get out and breathe in th fresh air and simply enjoy being with my favorite guy. (Oh and take a shower – impossible to shower with an IV stand and bags of medicine attached to one’s body…)

However you take in the New Year – enjoy it!
