Hello everybody!
Just wanted to let you know that Jillian is doing GREAT! Today is the best day she’s had yet……even after bone marrow collection yesterday! She slept good last night, did not wake up early, is smiling, laughing, “talking” to her DVD’s, playing. The puncture spots on her back look great, almost like they’re barely there.
Also I want to thank EVERYONE for your posts of love, encouragement, and prayers! I can’t tell you how much I look forward to seeing a new post to us every day. There are even some of you that are sending posts that we have never met before! Please understand that I can’t respond individually to your posts, but know that each one I read is SO very special. I usually even read them over a few times.
I’ve been telling Jillie that everyone is sending hugs and sugars to her.
Sending e-love back to everybody! Will post again soon! Love you all!

Could we be happier? I don’t think so! YAY YAY YAY. Any minute now you girls will be up and running all over China – who’d'a thought it, huh?
We love you and are just full of anticipation and excitement for you.
YAY?! Have I “yayed” enough yet?
Love you dearly -
Allison and Sam

Hooray for you, Tami and for little Jillie Bean too! How could you go wrong with Dr. Mike…and maybe a Ryan in the hospital as well. I just got around to reading the blogs but will do so every day now. It certainly sounds like God is watching over you and the doctors as well. I am sure you are exhausted, mentally and physically, but maybe you can catch some little naps while Jillie is sleeping. It is wonderful to know what is happening. Our love and prayers are there with you.

Hi Tami! I know that you don’t know who I am so I guess I’ll start there. I know Allison, Tim, Ben and Sam and I check in on Sam on a daily basis. I have just been so taken with Sam and I pray for him everyday and do anything I can to help them out. Last year a group of friends and myself raised $1806.00 to help with ABR treatments. Anyway, Allison posted a link to your blog and I just wanted to let you know that you and Jillian have been permentally added to my prayers. I hope that all goes very well in China! Best of luck.

Hi Tami! I know that you don’t know who I am so I guess I’ll start there. I know Allison, Tim, Ben and Sam. I have been so taken with Sam (that I raised $1806.00 for his ABR treatment and I hadn’t even met him at the point) and I pray for him all the time. I check his blog everyday to see how things are going with him. Today I checked his blog and Allison had posted a link to your blog for Jillian. I read a few of the entries and I just wanted to let you know that you and Jillian have been added to my prayer list! I hope all goes well in China and I pray that you are strong enough to handle this huge step (no doubt it’s challanging, I can’t imagine) with Jillian, just the two of you. Good luck and best wishes to you and your family!

Hello my sweet sweet cousin, I love you and your family more than you can ever know. I believe you are the sweetiest most loving person in our entire family (Aunt Dot is right up there). You have proved that time and again, and never more than at this very moment when you have willed your love into courage and bravery possible only by the pure of heart.
I think about you girls every day, and I tell Taylor about you and sweet little Jillie as often. She can’t wait to meet her cousin in the very near future.
Brian, I know you are reading the posts and replies and I want you to know and all of the others reading this that I think you are one rock solid guy. Thank you for being a part of our family.

Good morning. It is 10:20 here (PM),so it is 10:20 AM you time.
I guess Bean has had her cheerios already, so now it’s time for
fruit,eggs,bacon,pancakes,whatever. All of course while
watching Dora and Diego. Isn’t it great! I miss you guys being here.
But I’m glad you are doing the best for Jillie. Your determination
and love and everyone else’s prayers and love will see you through. Just to let you know, my clock chimed this morning about
3 or 4, woke me up. So I know Pop Pop is watching over her too.
Along with Jampa. What a lucky girl to have so many people to
love her, and to have you for her MOM. You both are always
in my heart and prayers. Dad, I love you too. Thanks for
supporting Tami in her efforts to make Jillie better.
Love and Sugars GrammaKuna XOXOXO

I am so glad to hear that things are going well with you all in China. It is amazing the love you are all showing for that little precious girl. She will have an amazing life with an amazing family who helped her achieve everything within her reach and beyond.
Take care of yourselves.
