Way to go LINA

At Wellington School each month has a character trait that they talk about in morning assembly and the students work on make them a part of their lives. For example, having an "I can" attitude, perserverance, poise and confidence...you get the picture. When a teacher sees the student exhibit the characteristic she can choose to award them with a key of excellence. Today Lina got a key!! In addition, she went to the front and read a beautiful paper on "Why her parents are the best" Needless to say, I was boo-hooing and so proud of her. The paper was submitted to Families on the go and she was an honorable mention--I think if the magazine knew her story, she would have won! I will post the story when I receive it! It is beautiful! She gets it--she gets what is really important in life. LOVE.
My angel Bill is coming through again, and I know the charity isn't "raking in the cash" ! He is so AMAZING and generous-thank God for his kindness. I do hope to raise funds to "pay forward" all the $$$$ the charity has put into Lina. In God's time.....

Next surgery is June 3

I stink at this updating stuff...so much going on. For the record, I had surgery on Tuesday, May 12 to remove a tumor from my left breast. Pathology came back fast and I am cancer-free, all praise and glory to God. So on to Lina, we will leave the 2nd, surgery on the 3rd, and God-willing we will be coming home on the 10th. He is going to work on the whole face,re-fining and the likes. With the economy being as it is, the charity helping us is not doing well, so we got Dr. Rose approved as an in-network provider, I know the Lord will provide. The school year is almost over, Hannah is driving, and this promises to be an awesome summer.
