Another Update


Why all the updates? Christi's feeling well and she keeps asking to go to the computer area at Ronald, so here I sit. (Plus, my mom always likes to know what's going on without calling to bother me she says.)

Christi didn't want to use the wheelchair so she walked all the way (about 4 blocks) to the B&N at UPenn. We stopped once going to catch her breath and once returning to buy her a Slurpie at 7-11, but much to my surprise she did great! (And much to her surprise the B&N doesn't carry the "Hank the Cowdog" series!!) She looked puzzled at the staff member behind the counter after we inquired. Later she asked, "How could such a huge bookstore not have those good books?" She selected a very cool encylopedia style book about animals instead and so I've been hearing lots of intriguing facts all afternoon.

I see Shayne is adding some pics I've taken the past couple of days to the blog. (Mom, You can scroll down to see Christi. Her eyelashes are almost completely gone now and on the plane she pointed out to me that her eyebrows weren't very "fluffy" anymore. We should be home so she can wear the jazz and ballet costumes you altered for her last week for their pics on Saturday morning. THANKS!)

What a delightful picture to see this evening- Christi reading. :) I'm sorry that B&N didn't have the books she wanted.

I'm thankful that she continues to feel well and wants to use the computer at Ronald.

Much love, many prayers,
Heather

Never fear, Christi! There are 3 Hank books on the way to Ohio, as of tomorrow! :) We are a family of readers here in Seattle and I love all the pictures your parents put up of you reading. Hang in there--Wednesday is almost here!
Love and hugs,

Hi Christi and family,

Georgia (toddler with nb) and her family in Ontario, Canada are thinking of you and we're pulling for you in your fight, honey.

Cheers.
