It’s Monday, March 21st around 6:30 am and just 2 more days until we go home! We leave on Wednesday, March 23rd at 11:25 am and get back home on Wednesday, March 23rd at 3:58 pm, but we actually have around 20 hours of travel time. This whole time difference because we are on the other side of the world is so confusing. We have been so busy pretty much every day that the time has flown by, but we are definitely ready to get back home. Uncle Bob tells us that Junior is so proud of Denise, but that he misses her very much. Today and tomorrow Denise has her regular therapies and tomorrow we also go back downtown to the Qingdao Eye Hospital so they can check her eyes again. They will give me the results of both tests so that I can bring them back home with us. This has without a doubt been the experience of a lifetime and many of the parents, especially the ones who are here for the second time, have told me about what improvements their children have had as a result of stem cells. Denise has always taken her time at showing us what she can do so I imagine that whatever results she gets from her stem cells will take some time and be so subtle that we have to be careful not to miss them. Here are some pictures of Denise’s doctors, nurses, our translators and a few more families who are here right now. I will go for now, but take care and have a great day!

Hi there.
We have been thinking of you so much. So glad to hear that you are on your way home soon. Do you think there is any way that you might be up to stop by school on Friday? We will be here all day. We have a PROUD dance the last 2 hours of the day! We would love to see you both even if it is just for a few minutes!!
We hope that your travels go well and that you get lots of rest on the planes!
Love,
Your class

Hi, Denise — It’s Nancy, your ski teacher from this year. I’m so glad to see your website and to have an opportunity to keep up with your progress. We really missed you the last two Fridays of your session but are so glad you had this opportunity to get these treatments. Best of luck to you! Thanks for skiing with me this year. I’m really proud of the progress you made, and you should be very proud of yourself. Hope to ski with you again next year!! Take care,
Best Wishes from “Miss Nancy”
