Grandma Karen's Birthday


Today was a good day. Mom got in last night and today is her birthday. It is great to have her here and today I rested all day and felt good. The Ray family brought dinner and even a birthday pie!

Oh, and I just discovered tonight that people can post comments on this blog. So, I just read all of them. You guys rule. Thanks everybody.

You know...my dad has been saying for years that BALD IS BEAUTIFUL. Boy, he got that right - you look awesome as a baldy! How nice in the morning too when you're rushing to get ready! I am so glad your mom is there with you now - Happy Birthday, Aunt Karen! Keep up the fight...we love you ~ Alanna, Mike, and gang

Your new nickname needs to be "GI Kristen" after Demi Moore. David said, "You're a hotty. You look like GI Jane." I love it. I wish I could pull it off and not have to mess with it every day. Happy Birthday Karen! Moms know how to make things feel so much better. We love you! We miss you all! We hope this week is better. :)

I was thinking you looked like a "rock star"! Put on some pop diva clothes and a mircrophone in your hand and you are ready to go on tour! :-) Stay strong and rest as much as you can. We are thinking of you, here in the Carolinas!!
love,

So glad you're mom is there, she's great! I feel much better knowing you guys have some live in support. Hope this week wasn't so hard on you as last time. My entire family decided to show their support by getting a wretched flu! All three of 'em have been running fevers, puking, having splitting headaches and just plain being miserable....Don't you feel loved?!

Hey! You truly do look good bald...
Who knew!! Never "blogged" before. I love getting to keep up with you and seeing pictures of the children! It doesn't quite seem like you are so far away. We pray for ya'll when Wren and Aly say their prayers at night. I hope you can all stay strong and focused on positives together. Sorry it has taken this for me to get in touch...Love to you, Shan

Hi Lems. We're following your journey and think you're all amazing. Kristen...with a smile that lights up the room, no one will notice a few missing locks:-) Glad your Mom is on hand. Say Hi. I know Tudi is ready to roll. Keep up the good work and know we're all thinking about you. Love, Kay and Matt.
