Ahhh, what a great feeling to have Debbie home. Nothing like it in terms of recovery. We got to visit in the Pres./St. Lukes Hilton a little extra longer than expected but Debbie's doing great now. A little nausea still but the meds are helping with that. Doctor Brown was very happy with her progress and said "Let's get you outta here". He also said something else that was so profound and really hit home. With a big smile on his face he said "Welcome back". Those two words really made us reflect on what a long and difficult year it has been. But those two words also signified much hope for our future!!!
I see this blog continuing but instead of updating you with treatment, it's now a blog of progress and recovery for Deb.
It's wonderful to make that switch.

A Note from Debbie.....
It's been one amazing year and now I am happy to say I am cured. Please see below for my journey through cancer....
Hello my friends, on August 4, 2008 I was diagnosed with Cancer.
As you can imagine the initial shock was great, for me, Doug and our girls. We've now got a great team of colorectal doctors, learned a lot about what is ahead, and have gotten our minds wrapped around it. So now we are in the "let's get this thing out of here" mode and feel very confident that, with prayers and support of my friends and family, by next Spring I will celebrate being cancer-free.
Please join me in this journey of Recovery, and visit this blog from time to time for updates, to post your comments, and read others'.

Positive vibes back at you! Glad you're home! Leigh
I am so happy to have you home and recovering in your own bed in the comfortable silence of own room.
I am with Julie when she says, your friends have helped you along the way with good food and good wishes.
This has been a long year of struggle but I think you and Doug and the girls made the most of it. You DID manage to have some fun along the way. You faced this hurdle as a brave soldier. You faced it and you won!
All my love
