| My LifeI just thought I would do a wee update since its been a while. I've signed up for classes and I'm going back to Emporia next semester and today I signed a lease for an appartment at Sundance (what a cute name). Another step forward in the life of Kari, I'm also getting my port out this Friday. Yes Friday the 13th I'm having surgery. But I was admitted into the hospital October 13th for my chord blood transplant so it seems like a good day. In bad news, my knee is freaking killing me and I go to see the doctor about it tomorrow. Tonight I'm havin tacos!

| An updateIts been almost two years since I was diagnosed with Leukimea and thankfully its gone. The bone marrow transplant that I had wiped it all out. I'd like to say I'm back to my old self but I've had to deal with a few set backs and new conditions due to the radiation I recieved and the amount of steroids I have been on.
I'm taking online classes through Emporia and plan on going back to school full time next semester and washing my hands every five minuets. My immune system is still like a babies so I get sick alot. But thats better than the alternative. I just thought I would give you guys a quick hello and a bit of love. Have a wonderful day!

| happy birthday to meThe 20th was my year anniversery of getting a bone marrow transplant and we went out to eat at Bravo. Mmmmmm.
A few weeks ago my mom and I went to Seattle for my year checkup and had some tests. My bone marrow says i'm still 100% graft. yayyyy. MRIs show that I have avascular necrosis in my hips knees and ankles : ( . I got lots of shots because i have a new immune system aaaannndddd I'm not allergiv to sulfa aaymore.
I've been kind of a recluse for a while but thats dumb. I dont do anything so give me a call and i'll probably be free to hang out.
much love
kari.
