Got home today to a package waiting on my porch. Came in and opened it and found the signed chicago poster inside. Could not be happier. Thanks so much to jeremy for the awesome prize and for organising such a great raffle for such a worthy cause. Pearl jam collection is now complete. If a second raffle gets going I encourage everyone to get on board and to help out with what they can. Thanks again.

Message from Nicole: "Well the scan showed it hasn't moved to any other parts of her body, her arm is still lighting up on the scan and they want to get an MRI to see if it's healing or active LCH cells. So there's a 50/50 chance it's either healing or still active. MRI will give them that info so the wait continues for MRI results."
The doctors have decided to do surgery. They aren't sure how much of the tumor (it's in her arm) they will be able to remove until they get in there. She will need chemo afterwards, not sure what and for how long until the surgery takes place.
UPDATE: So Kelsie is in surgery today - actually right now. I'm sorry I have not come up with a definitive plan for xmas gift(s) for Kelsie, but life has been hectic and I have not heard back from her family regarding anything specific that she would want.
If anyone has some ideas, something that can be done fairly quickly, let me know
Thanks again to everyone who contributed to the fundraiser and helped raise $1250 for Kelsie and her family. I am awaiting word on some holiday gift ideas from Nicole, but I figured in the meantime we could start a quick fundraiser to get her something she wants for Christmas.
Kelsie went into surgery today, doctors said it went well. There is a 6-week recovery period then she has to go through another round of chemo. Hopefully that will be the end of it and she will be in remission.
So as for a Xmas fundraiser, I thought we could do something similar, but without any raffle. Donate as little or as much as you want to go towards a large gift (or multiple smaller gifts, all depends on when I get word on what she would like). If anyone has other ideas, please let me know, and I'm sorry for the fairly short notice.
*I'd like to reward the highest pledger personally by sending them a PJ mystery box containing contents from my own PJ collection.
