Family Weekend with pics and updates on Surgery.

First - Surgery in Boston....
We are planning our trip to Boston the weekend of Halloween. It looks like Michael is going to be staying here with Grama and Granpa. The temporary housing will cost $30.00 a day for 2-3 weeks; this will depend on how her surgery goes. So we're thinking about $650.00 just for housing not including meals or gas to get us there. I will have to take non paid time for this trip as well.

I want you to know how important all of you are to us and say thank you for all of the support. We will not have the chance to squeeze a golf tournament into our schedule before her surgery. If you want to help us in anyway, please let me know. The necklaces on this site are terrific because 75% of the proceeds go right into Emaleigh's "CLOVES" account and will be used for expenses like these and/or medical bills.

Thanks for the information Rosemary, they do have a Ronald McDonald house but it's for cancer patients only. The good news is that the hospital has the housing we were approved for, that I mentioned above and the floor plan looks nice.

The weekend - was terrific, we had a chance to hang out with Michelle, Eric, and the kids AND Jamie and the kids :) (Grama and Granpa too) The pictures turned out terrific! See for yourself ~ these are just of the babies to start :)




Back to Emaleigh!! - As I post this, a friend (Liz) called to let me know that she is going to send money to pay for the cost of the housing in Boston. I cannot express how grateful we are for all of the support. We are truly blessed to have you in our lives!

Everyone has been so supportive, between the kind words, prayers, purchase of necklaces, and the willingness to help is amazing. I couldn't ask for anything else ~ except maybe....a baby that isn't sick ;)!

Thank you again!!!!

With Love,
Adrienne
