I have been told by several people that they have not been unable to post a comment or guestbook entries on this website. There is obviously a problem, I have even tried to comment on our other NEMO kids websites with the same server as us and have not been able to post. We would love to get your comments so please don't give up trying. Hopefully the problem will get fixed soon.
Otherwise, Jack is doing well. We had clinic on Tuesday and his counts are in the toilet since the infection he had last week, but they are showing signs of recovering. The doctors say it is not unusual for this to happen when these transplant kids are fighting infection. They don't get too concerned, but of course for peace of mind I asked them to rerun the engraphment studies and Jack is still 100% donor. WooHoo!!! Yipee!! and of course Thank God. We are going back to Philly tomorrow (Friday 9/8) to run some more bloodwork to check his platelets and give him some IVIG's. They were unable to IV access Jack on Tuesday, his veins are so beat up so they decided to give him a couple of days rest and hopefully his platelet level will come up so he won't need to get platelets. Please pray.
I know I ask this of all of you so often but please continue to pray, we aren't totally out of the woods yet. I am also asking you keep all the children who our in our circle of transplant kids in your prayers as well. Especially, Matthew, Ronnie and Danasia, who are in the hospital and need those extra prayers to get them through.
Today wasy Christina's first day of 3rd grade. She was pretty excited to get back to school but more excited that her best friend Charlene is in her class........I smell trouble!!!!! Ahh, they're good kids they won't be any trouble at all...................
Thank you all and don't forget to keep trying to post a comment or you can always emails us through this website. We love to hear from you. God Bless

We haven't put any pictures in quite a while. I got an email from my Aunt Robin saying we want pictures, pictures, pictures, so here they are. http://www.flickr.com/photos/cure4jack/
I will catch up on some old ones that have to be posted. It has been a very crazy summer, Jack in and out of the hospital, sometimes just kicking back and enjoying the time he has been home and sometimes just being to tired to do it. But sometimes good things take time.
