Update on Jaden Jan. 2009

































Jaden is hanging in there!! 10 months down…. 5 to go till the bone marrow transplant. Please pray that we won’t need to go that rout…

We are all patiently waiting for Greg to get home from Afghanistan on Leave. It will be a short 14 days when he gets here!! So far they got snowed in on FOB Shank…and now he is stuck somewhere else in Afghanistan at another base, waiting to go to Kuwait…to get a flight home. Try saying that three times fast!! LOL!! Anywho; when he gets here… it will be a blessing!!

We have a Military Ball coming up in May, and I am commissioned to do a painting for the event. Greg’s Brigade is going to sell off prints to raise funds for the ball. I can’t wait to get started on that…I should be able to work on it at the Hospital while I am there with Jaden.

Grandpa and Grandma Susan got to visit us at Jaden’s last poker run. (November 1st, 2008) That was really nice! Mom and Lee are getting along great, and we consider Lee a blessing to our family!!

Recently: Jordan and Josh have been able to visit, and bring a smile to Jaden’s face!! The kids really enjoy being with them…as they are not able to be too social since Jaden’s illness.

The Hansley’s were able to come for dinner and visit with us too…and we love them dearly!! When you have wonderful friends in the Lord…it is truly a blessing!! The boys are getting so big!!

Alaina and Laurana got to visit in Louisville when we got together with Frank & Lori. That was really fun!! We all had a really great time!! Also, Mr. Rex pierced Alaina’s ears. How cool is that!! Thanks Rex!!! 

We have a full schedule this coming end of month at Vanderbilt, and in February. Please continue to pray for Jaden! Also, Greg and I celebrate 18 years together in next month… how time flies by!! Hope all is well and looking forward to hearing from you soon!!
God bless
