"Changing the world is really not as tough as it seems.Just takes a little effort and a whole lot of happy. 
The world will not change with a wish or a wand.No abra-kadabra or shooting star.
Some may think it takes a miracle or magic but ...I have something to say that might clear the static. 
I have dreamed a dream of something improbable because to me, in life, there is nothing but possible. 
The answer really is no secret to keep;you just need to be kind to each soul that you meet.
A task that takes just courage,you see a gut full of gumption and brain that believes.
It is a heart full of hope and a hand that can help.To deliver such kindness that may have never been felt.
So do what you can, no matter how small.\Stand up for what is good and stand 100 feet tall.
Paint a picture, hold a door, give a nickel or give more. 
Give a stranger a cup of joe or donate your old winter coat. 
Do these acts at random and I bet you’ll find,that you are making a difference each and every time. 
So tell me friend, have I convinced you why,that making a difference is as easy as pie
Maybe I should remind you this life isn’t all about “me”There is more to this life, a reason for existing. 
So be fearless, be fierce and maybe a little insane. Now do something rad and watch the world change. (Madison Steiner)

I REALIZE IT HAS BEEN A LONG WHILE SINCE I HAVE POSTED TO THE BLOG.....FORGIVE ME, I WILL TRY HARDER TO KEEP THIS BLOG UP TO DATE.

As a few of you know...Heaven has been in the hospital here since last Monday. She is doing great, but keep the prayers coming. Last Monday her nose started bleeding and we couldnt get it stopped, so we call Dr. Driscoll and he told us to head on up to 5200 (PBM Floor). It took just over 4 hours and 2 platlet transfusions to get her nose to stop bleeding, then the ENT was contacted and for the 5th time another part of her nose was carterized. After that she received 2 blood transfusions. Also, Dr. Prasad and Driscoll wanted her to stay overnight so the couls also check her fingers as she has had a bad infection in 5 of her fingers which was vaused by the chemo, which made her lose her fingernails, and when the new nails were growing in she was literally gettin in-grown nails on her fingers as you would your toes. So she was started on two intibiotics and also a very strong viral med as they want all if this to get gone while covering all areas. So with all that said...we ask that you keep praying as we hope to be out of here and back to the RMH by Wednesday. Love you all may may you all enjoy this beautiful day.

Today's total days we have been here is 243
Post- Transplant is 168
