To the delight of Ken, Olivia, Joshua, Grace, Eleanor, Noah and everyone reading this blog, Joy came home today. Her children made a banner in honor of the occasion. She will be home until the 30th. Hooray!
Because, she is still weak, she still cannot accept visitors. She wants everyone to know, however, how much she loves them!
The OTHER good news is . . . her cancer is currently in remission!

We're pleased to hear of your progress, Joy, and we wish the best for you as you face this adversity. We know a little bit about adversity and the pain and fear that always accompany. And we know that there is comfort in the understanding and love of friends. When all that can be done is being done, then friends can only stand by, ready to help when called upon. So we stand by, with the warmest of wishes and a huge measure of admiration for your ability to endure it well. In saying that we refer also to
Ken and all of your family members who stand beside you in this difficult time. Bob, Jessica and all the other Alsops.
Sister Joy,
Alma 37:37 On this day of Thanksgiving, how our hearts are full of thanks unto Him who hears our prayers on your behalf.
Best wishes always.
Happy Thanksgiving Joy and Ken. With faith and love we continue to pray for you and your family.
Love,
Arian and Jill Lewis

We have been out of the country for more than 2 weeks, and I was so anxious to check your update upon our return. I can't express how thrilled I was to get the happy news that your borther is a match and that you could be home for a few weeks with your family. You have been in my thoughts and prayers constantly! I am sure that Ken and the kids are just thrilled beyond words to have you near again!
All of our love to you Joy!
