Unexpected - Overwhelmed

I have been very overwhelmed while being in the hospital. It all happened so fast, and it has taken me a while to adjust to not only the leukemia diagnosis, but also the stroke I had. I have not even been able to respond to everyone who has sent me things. I get packages and cards every day. It has simply been amazing. I wanted to try to do a blog just on all the people who have loved me. So I am going to list all the people I can. Please be patient with me.
