Day +12 & Day +13 - April 6 & 7, 2006

These last 2 days have been pretty uneventful. Jack has had some issues with small amounts of vomiting and feeling a little blah. He perks up for a little while and either wants to color or play on the computer but for the most part he just lays around and watches movies. That's ok, for everything he's been through he deserves the rest.

Here are 2 of Jack's nurses. Denny and Tracey like to have fun with Jack. Denny calls Jack Bug-A-Boo and Tracey and Jack call Denny Kook-A-Doo. Jack has Tracey wound around his little finger, he got her to get him all his necessities to do IV's. Yes, Jack likes to pretend to give people IV's, she got him syringes, alcohol swabs, tubing and even tourniquets. She even had the experience of letting Jack give her one.

That was the events here at the hospital while at home............
Roy and Christina had the pleasure of attending the Mayor's Ball in Fairfield. Cheryl Cavanaugh went in my place representing the "FOUND N.E.M.O. - FINDING CURE" Foundation as it's president. The Honorable Mayor Rocco Palmieri who had attended and met Jack at the Beef Steak Dinner in October invited us to the Mayor's Ball and made Jack one of the recipients of the funds raised at this event. Mayor Palmieri gives the proceeds to the Fairfield Scholarship Fund as well as a town child who needs financial assistance and this year it was Jack and also the Autism Fund. The generosity of the evening was very overwhelming and greatly appreciated. I was told that the evening was quite a success and that everyone had a great time.

THANK YOU MAYOR ROCCO PALMIERI, THE MAYOR'S BALL COMMITTEE AND THE TOWNSHIP OF FAIRFIELD FOR THE INCREDIBLE GENEROSITY THAT YOU EXTENDED TO OUR FAMILY.
