Thank you's

Just wanted to mention that I forgot to "Thank" some of the most important people in our life... our family. Dennis, Bonnie, Ron, Rene, Uncle Ramon without getting too emotional I can't thank you enough. Mom, Dad, Judy, Jodie we just couldn't do it without your help. Matthew, Samantha, Penny thanks for everything. To everyone else in our family thanks for all your love and support.

Rochelle & Robert you guys are amazing and we value your friendship.

Also "Thanks" to East Hills Community Church for your continuing support & understanding.

Fundraiser at the Park


Thank you to everyone that attended or participated in the Fundraiser at the Park or the fundraiser at work. We truly appreciate all the love and support we have received over the last several months. Although we struggle with our faith daily (God understands), your prayers carry us through each day. A special Thanks to Cindy and Stefanie in Azusa for all you guys have done for us. An extra special Thanks to Ms. Kathy for being a part of our lives, we are truly blessed to have you.

Billy Boy (Rebar) has had an extra hard week (and so have we.) He has a respiratory infection (Pneumonia) and has been on oxygen since last Friday. He was supposed to have Botox shots in order to decrease the spasticity of the muscles in his arms, but that had to be cancelled due to the illness. He is in excrutiating pain and we give him muscle relaxers and valium, but sometimes even thats not enough. I'm also looking into Oxygen Hyperbaric Chambers (which I have read in Anoxia blogs) that it has helped with spasticity. We have five different visits next week, getting him into a car is a pain, so we will be needing a wheelchair van.

Monet is doing well, she is turning seven on Sunday. She too has her moments and misses her brother. We are all adjusting to the new Billy we have, while mourning the loss of the Billy we loved so much!
