If you just opened an email from your doctor and he wrote that the MRI you had last week--the one of the surgical site on your leg--that it is perfectly normal and showed no signs of residual infection, you will shed a few tears as you forward that message to your husband, ignoring the fact that you are sitting in a fantsy-pantsy (and completely quiet) archival library.
Well, because if this is you, you don't care what the people around you are thinking as you get the best news that you've heard in a very long time.

C'est moi
I was raised Mormon, but now I'm a hippie Quaker living in the OC with my two teenage kids: CatGirl & GameBoy.
Twenty-six years ago I lost my right leg to bone cancer. Awhile ago I had an antibiotic-resistant infection in my lower left leg, and now I'm healing from surgery and feeling better every day.
I like gardening, making history, outrigger canoeing, trying new things, and my afternoon cup of tea.

(Happy Hugs). What a long road. Thank God you've come to the end of it.
Yay! Happy dance!
Congratulations! I know how exciting that is. :)
I think you need a party hat and horns! Congratulations!
I'm so happy for you!
That must be quite a relief. :)
Fantastic news! You can know you feel better but until you get that all clear there's still the burden of uncertainty - so pleased it's lifted.
Yay!!! Now you can have a wprry free trip to the East Coast.
=)
What great news. :-) It's always good to get that confirmation, isn't it? Congrats!
YEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The only way it could have been better is if the very quiet archival library would have, just for a minute, burst into song and sprouted balloons!
What great news! I'm so happy for you.
Hallelujah and congratulations! I'm getting a little misty-eyed just reading that wonderful news.

That is truely fabulous news!! Even as a stranger to you I breathed a huge sigh of relief, and have a huge smile on my face. :)
Happy Happy! Joy Joy! (very much a ripoff of Belkie from Perfect Strangers...)
That's wonderful news! Congratulations! And fancy-schmancy libraries can use a little emotion sometimes.
congratulations on the great news! it made me smile even though I've never met you :-) I'm happy for all of you enjoying this news. and now you'll make the World Tour?? :-)
another deborah
oh good! I'm so happy for you!
Congratulations!! I second the notion that the library should have suddenly produced balloons and perhaps a little confetti too!
joy, joy joy
