What better birthday present could I receive? My daughter, Kirsten, returns home today after facing her demons. In about ten days, the pathology on the excised ameloblastoma will pronounce whether the demons are vanquished. All data thus far is very encouraging.

Happy Birthday. Great news, that your daughter is home and hope everything goes well.
Happy Birthday, Julie! I've been following your daughter's blog, too and I cannot tell you how much I admire your entire courageous family. We bloggers are there in spirit with you. Love and hugs to all of you!
So congratulations and keep my fingers crossed. I wish you many, many health!!! Peter.
Good news, Julie. Happy Birthday and thanks for your efforts in bringing the story to the people.
Wonderful news Julie! I'm so happy for your entire family. Happy Birthday!
I feel so happy for you. Your family situation has been on my mind. Once the swelling goes down your daughter will be as beautiful as before.
What better news could you have for your birthday. Have a wonderful day!
Happy Birthday! Best of luck!
Such a wonderful thing Julie. Have a great birthday, and a lovely welcome home to Kirsten. You are all so full of courage and love!
Happy Birthday! Just the present you wanted. She looks so much better than I imagined she would. You have one amazing daughter.
Such a wonderful gift to have your daughter home from hospital - nothing beats that.
Happy Birthday Julie!
The perfect birthday!!
Oh yes, how fabulous this is. My goodness when we think of what your daughter has been through and see these absolutely heartwarming photos - what a birthday present.
All my thoughts are with you all.
Happiest birthday ever for you I should think Julie, many wishes coming your way.
A big Happy Birthday to you all.
Happy, happy Birthday!
Home already wow. Happy birthday.
Thank you, friends for the birthday wishes.
Yes, the speed of the return home has taken my breath away. But Kirsten has always needed between 8 and 9 hours sleep. In hospital she was getting about 2 because of all the checking. Once she started to eat (fortified liquids) over the weekend, and after the two transfusions on Sunday, she just stormed ahead.
And Ally was starting to be a bit 'naughty' and K did not want this. So, there is a lot of help for her, but she will sleep and communciate with her daughter. that is even more incentive. She also has a nurse coming in. And I don't think she has lost any weight over the operation period - maybe half a kilo. She is just under 44kgs.
So thank you for all the warm vibes. She and I both appreciate them.
Happy Birthday Julie and wonderful news especially on your birthday. Hope that all continues to progress well.
Such good news for all of you! Enjoy and Happy Birthday Julie.
Great news. Really happy for you and your family. Have a great day Julie!
You know, Kirsten reminds me of Jay Leno with that huge chin :-)
*chuckle*
We are working on her self concept, but being likened to Jay Leno isn't a dot point!
Hurrah! Glad she is doing well. Keeping prayers going there.
Happy Birthday. August is the best birthday month. :)
Well, Leno made his chin his trademark and made loads of money because of / in spite of it. Might be an angle for Kirsten to consider...
Great news, Julie. Hope all your daughter's news is always good now. Hope you had a Happy Birthday.
Fingers crossed for that pathology, Julie. Belated Happy Birthday:-)
OH wonderful news. Yes she will thrive at home surrounded by her loved ones. Prayers continue for her swift and full recovery.
