Brenn
Ladysmith beach day

Sunday, May 30, 2010

It was a nice and busy day today. Some of the Jewish Women came in this morning and brought us all muffins, and bagels, cream cheese and lox, along with loads of coffee. It was really great. Brenn was much better with this scenario, as there was not many people in the kitchen. She was really not feeling all that well this morning though. She was pale, and more lethargic than normal, but once she got her third breakfast into her, she started to feel a lot better.

Once Brenn started to feel better, we were off to North Vancouver to return the shaver that I bought yesterday, and look for some gel caps for her medications. We were successful in returning the shaver, but unsuccessful in finding her gel caps. Luckily though, there are many parents here, and they all have empty gel caps, so we borrowed a few more, and found out were to get more tomorrow. That particular pharmacy is closed today. We came back to the house, and started to make the perogies that Brenn wanted to make for the whole house for dinner, and made lunch for Brenn. I had to go and pick up Christines friend Ingrid from Yaletown. She is a professional story teller from Prince George, so she came in today and told all the kids many stories this afternoon. The kids loved it, and really got into it. It was really great!

Like I said. Today, Christine made perogies for everyone in the house. A couple of the other moms made things like salads, and desserts, and we all sat down to a really nice dinner all together. It was a really nice day at the house today. Everyone was together pretty well all day, and we were able to really get to know some of the people that we have been and will be living with for the next little while. There is a new family that just arrived today. They are from Seshelt, and they have a little boy about 6-7 who was diagnosed with ALL about a week after Brenn. It was really nice to hear that they have the same fears, and perceptions that we do. Throughout the day, it was also nice to hear about how everyone else has been dealing with their journey. Hopefully, we will be able to all get together and do something similar more often.
