Hi Cheryl,
I am late to join the thread, but today is the day.

There has to be some comfort in knowing you will be at your alma matter...

Best of luck today.

Hi Cheryl,
I had been wondering about you too and just finally found all these updates.
I hope all went well, your recovery is very smooth and that it won't slow you down.
Take care,
Keri
