Senior Luau/ Joy

So, tonight was my senior luau, which at my school is the final dance of the year and is the senior send-off. It's finally hit me that I'm done. I have mixed feelings. On one hand I can't wait to get out of here, on the other, there's a lot of people I'm really gonna miss. I mustered up my courage and sang "Waking Up in Vegas" for karaoke, and thankfully it was realy crowd pleaser. But, most inportantly, it was fun, and mostly free of drama. It was actually the most fun I've ever had at a school dance.

But to the other part of my evening. For the people that have been following the stuff I've been writing about Maddie, here's the latest update. She just had her radioactive iodine treatment, which means I'm not allowed to be withing three feet of her. But here's the good part. She can walk!! Like this is a HUGE deal. It used to be that she could walk, but very shakily and needed to have support. She can now walk normally, and for long periods of time. I am SO happy, so incredibly happy that words can't even describe. I cried when she walked across the room. This is a huge turning point in her recovery, I am so happy <3
