    HI everyone. I wish I had some news to report but I don't.
    My sister sent me a picture of the babay in the hospital this morning that almost broke my heart! She looks so sad..I am sure it is just how I am seeing it. But I have decided today I am going to put together a care package and send it to the hospital. To hopefully bring a little sunshine her way. If any of you would like to send a card or something here is her address at the hospital. it doesn't look like they will be letting her go home any time soon.
    Her name is Lorelei Sellars in room 530 c/o Childrens hospital of Orange county, 455 South Main Street, Orange,Ca 92868
    Just let them know you are friends of mine so they are not wondering.
    They are doing a biopsy (sorry if spelling is wrong, my brain is not working these days) on her forhead to see what the lumps on her forhead are. I will update when we get info on that.
    Oh and she LOVES lions. She has her favorite stuffed lion with her right now! he goes everywhere with her!

    Brandi, I'm sorry to hear that your sister and niece are struggling with her illness. I wish for you and your family that the biopsies are benign and that your niece will be healed. I know how frustrating it is to be away from family during a crisis and my prayers and thoughts are with you also. Thank you for sharing the updates with us and we will all continue to keep you and your family very near in our thoughts and prayers.

    Warm, healing thoughts are on their way, including strong lions and optimistic butterflies. Keep us posted. If it helps, we can be your back-up google team.
    Half-marathon over. Sabbatical year over. It's back to "sacking shirt and oat cakes" as they say here.

    I'll send something asap. I'm relieved they found that the lumps aren't cancerous. Hopefully they'll figure it all out soon. {{{{{{{hugs}}}}}}}.

    Thank you again. I feel calm when I read everyones warm wishes.
    I edited the info for the address. I forgot the name of the hospital. She loves animals,power puff girls and puzzles. As well as Curious George. I sent her the softest monkey today. I walked around the gift store with it hugging it and giving it a ton of love before I sent it off to her today. My friend added a warm soft blanket and a couple story books. We also added a few chocolates to my sister and her husband. I hope it helps some.
    They still know nothing. Another Dr who deals with inflamation is going to look at her now. (sigh)
    This people need to go home soon. But a good note is they have a great paly room there. They can paint, play,watch video's,read books run around. So that is good.
    My sister had her husband bring their little dvd player so she could watch her favorite movies and stuff. I am so tired mentally. I feel like no matter how much I sleep I don't feel rested. I have been bike riding and that has really helped me a lot. Thank god for samll things!
