We've had a couple of pretty good days. Rena's appetite and strange cravings have continued. Rena has tried various recipes with mashed potatoes and other ingredients like barbecue sauce. When she isn't eating she is thinking about what she wants to eat next. She seems to do pretty well during the day, though she is getting sick of being stuck at home. She is tired out by the evening and tends to feel things more. We are tying to get into a routine and will get her started on her school work again soon. Rena and I are reading "I Am Number Four" (from the upcoming movie) and it is turning out to be a great book.
Also, a firefighter from Washington state is climbing in Rena's name during a fundraising event for Leukemia research. If you want to learn more:

Hi Rena! You have the love and support of the Richland Fire Department in Richland, WA. We are thinking of you and wishing you well!
ReplyDeleteYou'll be with me next week when I compete against 1,500 other firefighters in a race up 69 flights of stairs in our gear. Your Aunt Vanessa sent me a picture of you that I am going to wear on my helmet.
Together, I promise that you and I will beat out at least 1,450 of those firefighters!
You are MY inspiration and hero! Tought times don't last... but tough people do!
