    great to hear from you, Michelle (or should I say SUPERWOMAN/SUPERMOM?!)!!
    you are really such a champ. We have all been and will continue to root for you and Hannah! Like Kyle said, there is still the road ahead but you guys will get there!
    Looking forward to sending you all a Chicago pizza once everyone is home and eating 'regular' food again! YES, we are serious!

    lots of hugs and good vibes!

    we know you.....you're some of the new blood this place so desperately needs.

    feel free to buy a shirt :)) This is the second go round....the first sold 127 shirts and raised $4300!

    I wish I had worn my shirt last night...I saw Collective Soul (no, I don't care what anyone says) and I just know Ed would have let me up on stage....really, no doubt.

    Aww, thanks!

    If/When I get a job, then I can think about buying a shirt, til then things are tight...I was lucky my hubby even let me join 10C! But I drove to P-town last weekend on a wild goose chase for him and his buddy and ended up empty handed, so I asked to join 10C for my efforts...lol

    Watch out for that imalive guy though WhisperHands, he could sell sand to a beach.

    To the Black Family, I hope things are progressing nicely and that everyone is adjusting. I also hope you're able to get out of the "hospital" environment and feel the sun on your face and a breeze on your back, even if for a few minutes. Wishing you all well and sending out positive Chi!

    Peace.

    They work on big trucks as mechanics on some weekends and needed a specific part, and called a guy in P-town, he said had it and it was available, and was going to give it to them for free...all I had to do was be there by a specific time. Well, I'm about 5 minutes from arriving and my hubby calls and tells me, they actually don't have one available, they have to pull it off a truck and he doesn't have time to do it that day, so I drove all that way for nothing...(it's an hour drive from where we live and a 4th tank of gas round trip)

    Happy Fathers Day and Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband Dave;).

    He is still doing such a great job of taking care of us! Trying to talk Hannah into eating a bit more she still doesn't have a very good appetite. I'm getting around pretty good now and feeling stronger each day.

    You would be amazed how many core muscles it takes to sit in a chair, wow I keep finding new sore ones every day.

    I hope you are all having a great weekend, enjoy some baseball and some Pearl Jam!!!

    We have been seeing people's pics from Amsterdam on facebook. It looks beautiful

    Thanks for all your posts of encouragement

    Oh how time flies when you are having fun!

    I'm sorry its taken me this long to get back here. I've been busy, but not so much that I shouldnt have stopped by and at least checked in. I've become slightly more dependent on that other social media experiment that I will not mention.

    Yesterday was 2WEEKS! 2 WEEKS! Its seemed like soo much more and then again it feels like yesterday all over again.

    Michelle is doing absolutely awesome! She is already back to taking the stairs here at the Ronald McDonald House, and I'm thinking she would be ready to stand on the rail in Amsterdam if really needed Okay, maybe Milan... She had her check up today and will not see another Dr for another six months. I am so impressed with her kick ass attitude. She's the toughest little lady I know. This Sunday was our 24th wedding anniversary! and we spent the day chilling (her = napping) here at the RMH. No fancy dinner yet (although she was craving a McD's cheeseburger last week-- yes I scooted my ass about 15 blocks to get her one!) but I plan on a dinner date before she goes back to work in the fall. She's not nearly back to full strength yet, not even close, but if she continues to progress at this rate she will have to let her Drs know they were wrong telling her she can never vacuum again. I thought that was odd anyway...

    Hannah is doing good too. Not so fast a recovery as Michelle though. I think what has made it harder on us is that the entire team kept telling us how Hannah would be running circles around Michelle. They missed the call here (or as I would say, due to following baseball on my phone lately -- 'this one is under review' ) Its been riding a wave. A BIG ONE! Deep swells and all! Biggest problem I would say is the nausea. Severe at times, but trending it hasn't led us to what causes it every instance. Dr's aren't worried about it, but its hard to heal and eat when you are dealing with it. Coupled with the expected 'chasing of the tails' while determining the right drug interaction and dosage requirements hasn't been pleasant. But she has a good attitude and we will get through this.

    As for the help from you guys and gals, we dearly appreciate it all. The cards, the gifts, the movies to watch, the books to read, and of course the financial help is so overwhelming. We WILL pay it forward. I dont know if Kelly relayed the info, but here at the RMH they have us in what they call an 'Isolation unit' which has a few specific rules just for Hannah's compromised immune system. The new house isnt fully furnished yet, but you guys donated two small microwaves, a few small trash bins, a set of Rubbermaids, and a king size package of TP! I talked to the directors here and let them know that it was not me that was donating them, but was a collective of awesome Pearl Jam fans from across the country and around the world that would love to see the help they provide us be carried further and help others along the way. I sent Kelly a pic (wont be posting it myself--still never figured that out the last time the Forum changed...)

    So anyway, here we are, there you go, and I cant wait to get the hell outta here and have my girls back! I do have to get back to work this weekend, and will be manning my post in front of the forum a little better for the few days I have to work this month.

    Later tribe...
