Getting Back to "Normal"

We seem to be recovering from our illnesses. Rebekah has been back in school this week (they were off for two weeks for spring break which coincided with the worst of her illness/infection). She also had speech therapy on Monday and we have occupational therapy scheduled for tomorrow. She continues to have diarrhea, but we've now completed the antibiotics and the infection seems to be better so I hope that the diarrhea will come to an end soon.

We want to thank those of you who have donated towards Daddy's St. Baldrick's head shaving event in honor of Maggie May and Nickolette - the Warlick Family, the Dunham Family, the O'Kane Family and Anonymous (we don't know who you are, but thank you). He has nearly met half his goal and that is great progress! It is a big encouragement to us, so thank you. We look forward to seeing many friends at the event, many of them touched personally by children's cancer. If you would like to join us, please do. We would love to see you there! It should be a great bash with lots of family fun.

We had a couple of visitors yesterday - Marita and Beth, Make A Wish volunteers. We are working with them on putting together Rebekah's Make A Wish. Make A Wish is for Children who have a life threatening medical condition. Rebekah's cancer diagnosis qualifies her and we thought we would try to get something going. Please realize that nothing has changed with her condition, we just want her to have a special treat and take advantage of the opportunity. We haven't decided, yet, what to do but we expect it to be Dora related since she seems to adore Dora. It is fun to think about doing something special.
