Jaden will be re-admitted on June 4th. This will be a long stay, as the first induction was 22 days... this stay may also be as long. Thank you so much for your continued prayers, and devotion unto the Lord! :)
Our update is bitter-sweet... Jaden met with the "Make a Wish" lady on Saturday. The meeting went well, and Jaden made his wish. He wants to get some things to make the next 2 years we will spend on our home-ground (in quarantine) a little easier. Also, he wants to get some things for the Ronald McDonald House. He said, "They need some updates in the game room, and it would be nice to give some toys to the kids too!"
So, Jaden's wish is for a shopping spree at Walmart. Yep, Wally world! They will pick him up in a Limousine (Yet another wish he always wanted!), and take him to an early shopping spree.
One thing Jaden would like to get is an 18 X 4 foot pool... since we can't do our normal lake/YMCA summer this year. Jaden is so nutropinic that he can not go into any public places. His little bottom lip came out when I told him we would not be going to the YMCA as normal; a few times a week this summer. Sooooo, the pool was a real desire for him. It will be good for him to get exercise... and a little fresh air in "our own" pool. The Doctors said this would be fine, but not to let it become a community pool... or we will contaminate if for Jaden.
Jaden is excited about getting things for the Ronald McDonald house as well! We will go to make a pre-shopping spree trip, as we do not believe in being greedy... or over-indulgence. However; we also know that some of the things Jaden can purchase on this trip will make the next two years a little easier for him.
**A trip to somewhere is out of the question, as Jaden doesn't want to go anywhere in a wheelchair and mask. It isn't appealing to him, and he said he would just rather get some things to give to others, and some things for us here at the house... than go on a trip anytime soon.
Jaden just isn't up for a trip in the near future.... however, we promised Jaden that when he does feel better we will take a trip to Disney!!
Greg leaves in July for Afghanistan, we hope that some of the games and toys will distract Jaden from his fathers absence.
Note: Today it is storming here in Hoptown! Alaina; as you see above, brought all her toys downstairs to "save" them. How sweet!!! :)
May God bless you all richly, today and always!
love in Christ
