Holy Names was Invaded by two all grown up college girls. .

Joey and Meb went to have a dressing change at Children's yesterday. On the way home, sort of, they stopped at Holy Names to check in with their roots. 

They were able to see many of their old teachers.  Meb was a bit amused that it took people a while to recognize her with very little hair and monster Chipmunk cheeks.  But those are well trained educators.  They can spot a disguise. 

At Children's they stopped at security to make Joey legal.  The security guys wanted to give Meb a badge and she told them she was a patient and her name. 

The guy said: So you are Mary-Elizabeth Sierra-Lanham.  I have never had a chance to put a face to the name but you had so many visitors when you were here.  So so many." 

She was pleased.  During the last few days she has been working on her scrap book and is starting to realize how many people send notes and cards and letters.  Sort of Delayed Appreciation Syndrome.  A good kind of syndrome.  During transplant she missed a lot of the expressions of love that were sent.  Don't fret, she is discovering it now.
