If there was a word that jumped out at me this week for 52 Pick-me-up, it had to be Remission. That word takes on a huge presence when one has had a brush with cancer.
Cancer patient, doctor, nurse, caregiver, friend -- it is the hope at the end of treatment.
I AM currently in Remission.

I took a sketchbook along to help pass the time. It was a godsend.

This shirt became my post-surgery shirt (twice). Roomy, soft, and turned inside out, the pockets can hold drains!
Today, I put it together with some grey lounge pants and my trusty old clogs:
