Mid Week Excitement!



Things are going a little better with the IV fluids on board. Joshua is eating a little more and much happier. Some of that happiness came from a package that came yesterday. Josh's favorite show is Deal or No Deal and so I called them. I let them know about his situation and they were so sweet! They sent him the game, hats, shirts, and a Howie talking bobble head! Also they sent some hand signed pictures and a very sweet letter. As you can see from the pictures I framed the pictures so he could see them easily.


It is wonderful how many people are good to us. You hear so much about the bad in the world but not enough is said about the many wonderful people who do so much good. It is humbling to see so many people that go out of their way for him. When you have a sick child the days are long and hard and things like this really matter and make a big difference. Thank you to everyone who sends cards and packages. Thank you to all the people praying. We don't get thank you's out to everyone but we appreciate you and your efforts make a difference.

I so understand what you are saying. Having a sick child makes me appreciate all the efforts of those around us that try to make it better some how.
