Hello friends, not too much has happened here, counts are still down, I still have a cough and a runny nose and I am still on an antibiotic IV drip. According to the doctor today, it might be Thur or Fri before I get home barring any further complications, keep your fingers crossed!

We did have several visitors yesterday which always brightens my face. My moms friend Lynn Deyton showed up and brought me the cutest frog blanket along with a Mickey snow globe that you just wind up to see the snow...you don't even have to shake it! She even brought my mommy a small 4-pack of her favorite Pinot Grigio wine...this sure made mommy smile! Then the Coryells from our church came by, they brought me the coolest light up necklace that is still hanging from my IV pole and they brought mommy lots of candy since she has been on a major candy kick since we've been here. Then Lisa Thomason and her son came to visit and brought me 2 pairs of long sleeve Cars pjs along with a cars ornament, some car stickers and even a gift for Karli, it was so nice to have so many people show me and my family how much they cared by stopping by and we thank you very much!

Today my sissy, mommy and I ventured out for breakfast in the cafeteria, it sure was a nice break. After that, we ventured to The Zone for a quick game of foosball (sp?). I was feeling a little more energetic and even continued to play games with my sister when we got back to our floor including driving around a cozy coupe and pushing a fake vacuum cleaner. My Big Daddy even stopped by for a quick visit and played blocks with me that my sissy had bought for me in the gift shop. Sissy then had to leave to go get Karli off the bus and mommy and I took a nice nap. Mommy was woken to a phone call from our friend Miranda that had been enroute to spend some time with Karli but had gotten into a car accident, everyone was fine thank goodness and we will look forward to spending time with her in the near future.

I know that lots of people have taken food to our family at home and it is very much appreciated...I assure you they are eating like kings compared to what we are eating here in the hospital! For all of those of you that have taken the time and or are planning on taking food, we thank you so much!

And finally, today was my DADDYS birthday! I was sad that we didn't get to spend time with him but we have something really special planned for him when me and mommy get home...he told me on the phone tonight that all he wanted from me for his birthday was for me to get better and get home, I'm sure gonna try :)

Well that's about it, I'm going to watch Finding Nemo for the 1054034 time with my mom and curl up in the bed to snuggle. Thanks as always for checking in and for the continued prayers and thoughts, they are greatly appreciated.

Love,

Ketren
