* home to Boston, daughter in remission

Posted on February 24th, 2010 by doug. Filed under daughter, news.


My daughter is in remission from AML type M4.   She is coming off a ventilator she's been on for 38 days now, in an ICU in California. 

I'm leaving tomorrow after six weeks out with her.  That's good – I miss being home, I miss my family in MA.  I am so glad my daughter is better enough that I can see leaving.

But leaving isn't easy, either.
