For Harry. Your talk about Dragons reminded me of this print and sent me looking though my stack old treasures and treasured memories so that I could share it here. I hope it makes you smile. I sure do hope that I did this right! Sue

I took a photo of a drawing that I have that I am sure Harry (and other's) will enjoy but I can not figure out how to put it here! If someone will let me know how to do that I will try to edit this post later and put in the picture. Thank you, Sue

Kay - my thoughts are with you and your family. Sue

Oh Mary - I am so sorry. Sue

oh Mary - I second what Marty says - all of it. Sue

I am so sorry to hear this. Shannon, Mary and your whole family have my best wishes. I hope they can do something for the pain so her body can focus on fighting the infections. Like Fay, I want to remind you to care for yourself as you watch over Shannon. Breathe, drink, sleep when you can and don't forget to eat something. We all wait with you for the results of the scans and biopsy. My thoughts continue to be with you. Sue

Shannon, I keep a steady stream of good wishes headed your way. Going home is very good news, and yes it does come with a lot of other emotions but it is good. Lean on Mary, this treatment you have gone through is very intense. You may not feel it but you certainly have shown that you have an amazing inner strength. Know that you are surrounded by well wishes. Sue

Anne, Wonderful news. I can not imagine all of the many emotions you were trying to keep in check as hearing declined. What a wonderful relief you must have now. I am very happy. Listen to lots of music, have some wine and chocolate. I heard you like that. Celebrate! Sue

Mary, This is outstanding! Thank you for the news. My best wishes are always with you all. Sue

Mary, What welcome news about the new marrow growing. The whole transplant process is an amazing thing, with many hurdles. Having the stem cells take root and begin to grow is such a relief and is truly a wonderful sign of recovery. It must be hard to watch Shannon in isolation, but it is likely best. Rest rest rest while you can, my constant advice. My best wishes are with you all. Sue

My best wishes are also with you today. Sue

Mary and Shannon, My thoughts are with you. This is such a complicated and difficult process. The bad news about the GVHD does carry along with it good news that the new stem cells are making themselves at home and growing. Now to control the GVHD and fight off the constant battle with infection. Shannon has been so strong, gong through so much and is still in there fighting. I am so glad you are with her. My best wishes are with you. sue

Shanon, My best wishes for healing are still flowing to you. Sue

Shannon, You are a very strong woman. I hope you can draw extra strength from all the love that surely surrounds you. My thoughts are with you. Sue

Shannon - and Mary and Family I am so sorry to hear that Shannon is having such a difficult time. My best wishes are with you all. I hope that the antibiotics can fight off the infection. This is such a difficult process she is going through, sleeping may be the best thing that she can be doing right now - with all her energy focused inward on getting through this battle. It is good that your son is able to go into the room and be with her. Thinking of you all. Sue
