Went to Emory today to get some fluids and some tests due to my continued commitment to the John (no not you uncle, cuz, cuz in law, or husband) and was worried about being admitted so I brought the "they may admit me bag as I always do, plus a few more things.... I put on some make up and my new blond wig and thought
"surely some one that looks this good, shouldn't be admitted."

| Got a red one too... amazingly my insurance pays for them . |
We had most everything packed for the beach and the hostel and I really really need to get out of the house. We have never been on a vacation just the three of us and Evalyn was too small the first time she went to the beach to enjoy it. Everyone at the hostel will love her and she will love the chickens, board walks, and flirting with a lot of people. They have a lake but it might be a little too cold. But I'm a little too hot, so who knows.
The thought of not going was stressing me out because we kept pushing it back due to one thing or another. My grandparents are not feeling well so we cancelled that trip but I need a trip before it got to hot or before I got sick again, IF.
Dr. Khoury said that it could have been a host of things. The virus, combined with a medication error (not my fault this time Dr.), and GVHD in my colon. I didn't get a no to go, so we are going..... if I have to wear adult diapers in the car, I'll do it. It won't be the first or the last time I shit my pants I'm sure. Thank God for wipes.... all kinds of wipes..... not sure how I will ever get a long without them.
I only saw one of the John's today.... but many others....
I met a lovely couple in at the clinic today. They both had very positive attitudes and an amazing story to share. They really encouraged me today. I gave them my card and hope that they will share there story here. They can better than me. We enjoyed talking and laughing about steroids, late night making plans, non compliance, online shopping, and the ups and downs of having a BMT. We shared about other people in our family that has battled and won cancer. Her daughter, my mom, and now hopefully my uncle frank and us. I can't wait to get in tough with their daughter, she sounds a lot like me and I think we could do some great things together.
Thank you Kim and Mr.Fun for watching our little girl!
It's almost 5 in the morning and I'm suppose to drive first, I'm like a little kid.

| We helped find multiple matches for this 6th grader in an almost hopeless situation, Praise the Lord for every one that signed up, volunteered, and donated! |
A few things not to forget while I'm gone.... The Be the One Run is on it's way! I need people to sign up to run and help raise funds, volunteer, and donate. So far my uncle John is going to be doing a lot of the music, I'll be doing a few songs, including the national anthem again, and some kids songs for the tot trot warm up! We will have lots of activities and fun! But, this is very serious, BMT's can cure over 70 diseases and you may be the only match. Someone you tell about, or ask for a donation may sign up and save someone like me. Please go to our team page at www.tinyurl.com/runthosestemcellsout. If you own a business, or know someone with a business, and would like to make a contribution and have lots of advertisement in the Atlanta area, please let me know and I will get a packet sent to you. Also, on an individual basis, I can get posters, and post cards to hand out to people. Just email me your address at heather.cape@yahoo.com and let me know how many you need.
My New Job at Weekend A'fair- Grand Opening Booth this Week!
If you have read my other posts about praying for God's will, I really feel that God wanted me to open this booth. I'm starting in the cheap seats so go to the third row first, My booth is on the left and called Day by Day. As I said before, I've always asked why he didn't give me a neon sign with my questions, and this time I got one with one of my own paintings. I looked at it and decided it was complete and just needed my signature on it. Thanks to my step mom Fay working with me in the heat, we got a lot done this week and my hubby and mom helped too! The booth right now still needs some work, my earring, bow, holder needs to be hung up and I have to get my inventory in from my talented friends that make crafts to send me some of their stuff, you are going to LOVE! Gotta to find another book case too. Right now, it has a lot of good stuff that I have been buying, already had, and some of my art.I also have some cool vintage clothing and a pair of boots you will do more than walking in! I have met some of the nicest ladies there, they are so sweet to me. Here are some pictures but after I decorate more it will be way better! Please stop by if you can it is call Day by Day and has our picture up and a little story about us!
