Apparently Eden felt as though she was jipped out of pancakes, at her own event!! So for breakfast this morning, pancakes got the call. Even though they were left over, they still tasted pretty good!
At home today, Eden had a blast playing with some of the props (cardboard tri-fold display of Eden and her cancer info) from the breakfast benefit. Mom and I crawled around it, while "wild-woman" chased us from behind. It's unexplainable how nice it is to see her bouncing around with a huge smile on her face, giggling and laughing! We're so extremely blessed that she continues to have such an uplifting spirit.
We're still in awe of what happened over the weekend, ~650 friends and family showing up to support our family! It's very humbling to be on the receiving end of such an event! I can't wait to be back on the giving end again soon, and Selena feels the same.
We're just so blessed to have Eden as a daughter, and we believe that the reason for her being choosen to deal with cancer will be revealed to us one day. Until then, we'll continue taking it one day at a time, and fighting for all we're worth to BEAT it!
As you pray, please pray that if Eden's blood counts are high enough to get admitted (scheduled over night hospital stay), that her body once again responds well to the chemo that she'll receive both at the hospital, and here at home.

Selena, Kurt, and Eden,
ReplyDeleteIt was so good to see you on Saturday, just wish it was under different circumstances.
Glad there was a good turnout for the benefit and glad we could do a little part toward helping all of you. We continue to pray, have a good day today at the clinic, hope everything goes well.
Love, Uncle Ardyce & Aunt Nancy
Selena, Kurt, and Edie,
ReplyDeleteI'm continuing to pray for you from Michigan right now. I don't know what today (Wed.) is bringing to your lives, but I know God is in control. It was thrilling to see how loved and supported you are. Thanks for letting me have a wee, small part on Saturday. I wouldn't have missed it for the world. Pancakes will always remind me of Edie! :) God bless and love to all! Aunt Becky
