Wednesday’s have now become Danny’s standard check-in days at Hopkins. Each week (we have since graduated to every other week….and now every third week) we go to meet with the transplant team, catch up with necessary specialists, review his medications, and get a report of what to expect at each stage of healing. Following these … More Wednesday’s at Hopkins
On Friday Bishop O’Connell High School kicked of SUPERDANCE 2017 with the assembly. Unfortunately Danny and I were not able to attend – Dan still recovering from the hospital and I needed to be at the office. So instead of Dan’s normal speech, we submitted a letter.

Hello friends and happy Wednesday! Hope you are enjoying a great week and maybe if you are local really soaking up this peek at spring….temperatures in the 60s and 70s – it is amazing!

It is interesting the different stories and anecdotes that have crossed my path during this journey.

Another weekend come and gone and for the Bessettes it was extra quiet. On Friday Danny had his two month bronchscope that we anticipated being pretty smooth, but we ran into a few little bumps instead. It was an early morning procedure, so we stayed in Baltimore the night before – enjoying some take … More Weekend That’s A Wrap
I think I was naive. I was naive to think that at 60 days we should be good to roll. Now not dumb enough to think that we could be completely ready to go or Danny would be ready for a marathon – but if I am being honest, I was confident enough to think we … More Hope as Wings
