Sweet Home Arizona! Home, Sweet Home!


At around five o'clock this afternoon, Margaret walked into her own home. Hospitalized since late March with only a short 9-day break, it seemed surreal to her to finally be back in her own comforting surroundings. Cosmo, her loyal dog (and freshly groomed by neighbor Becky), met Margaret at the door. Taking several daily medications and scheduled for daily return visits to the City of Hope BMT clinic, she still has many months of treatment and careful monitoring to go. But she is sleeping in her own bed now, surrounded by all the familiar things within her own home.
