Care Packages Delivered!
July 24th, 2009
It was a joyous morning as I learned that Don and Ella had received the care packages that I had sent. They received them at 2:00 yesterday afternoon so I was thrilled with that news. Don had fun sharing some of the goodies with the other stem cell families. Pop tarts, pretzels and microwave popcorn along with some chicken noodle soup were passed out. Aaah the things we take for granted!
Don and Ella once again ventured out in the heat to the Lotte Mart. Daily supplies were in need……juice for Ella, beer for Don, baby wipes. I tell Don that this is a typical shopping trip for him anyway when he hits the stores. LOL He had another hamburger ( lettuce tomato onion) and fries from across the street, they are very good he says and he was craving a hamburger ( Don’s fave!) I am thinking I will have the grill fired up every night here when he gets back.
When we last spoke Ella had completed her morning therapy and was taking a snack break ( she is so happy to have pudding again!) and then it was off to have her daily massage.
Don played the Wii the other night with the families from Ireland. He said he beat the one little gal by 16 points…….do you think she was going easy on him? 
He has been taking lots of pictures again, it will be fun to get to work on Ella’s special scrapbook all about her journey to China.
The kids and I spent a wonderful day with friends in the Ollie and Richland area. There were three of us girls back in the neighborhood and we decided we were causing quite the commotion with all of us being home at once:) We were super excited to meet baby Brecken ( oh April what a sweetie!) and just have time to visit with all of you that we saw today. It gives me continued strength to have your support and to see your smiling faces:)
6 more days!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
