Such beautiful weather here lately, and the hospital I work in offers amazing views of the city. I’m so ready to look out the window and see gorgeous fall foliage everywhere [emoji7]

At a local nature center, Aura got to participate in releasing a monarch back into the wild. The chrysalises (chrysalii?) Looked like polished stones with gold painted accents.

That's our Chinese Elm, IL, not edible except to birds. Around here, people say that the more berries there are on the Chinese Elm, the harsher the winter.

The Tower's looking good!

Where is that place, @loriag? Looks beutiful but i would die a very cold death if i step foot there haha.

This picture I took last year in Tulum. I love the beaches of that place and it makes me happy/sad because i want to go back!

Today is 13 years since my son Daniel ( in the middle ) had a kidney transplant after 5 years waiting on dialysis. He was a very sick child. Diagnosed at 5 months of age and after 56 operations he finally got a kidney at 20 years old. He is now 33 and has 2 beautiful little boys ( my treasures ) and doing very well. Most do not realize that a transplant is not a cure, its a treatment. 13 years is excellent for receiving a kidney from a cadaver. You can do much better from a living relative. But we did not have that option. So with that being said - every day is a blessing and I am eternally grateful to the other mom who lost her 17 year old to a car accident, making the choice to donate his organs and for my son to hold these babies. My best day, was her worst. A mixed blessing. I think about her on this day every year. Life is more precious then we know sometimes.
