FINALLY getting my port or shunt!

Hey Shar! I am sooooo excited about the port/shunt! It will make my life so much easier!

I'm still kind of in shock about Lilli, is that nuts?It's like I'm stuck in the denial/anger/depression cycle. I still cry every night - just thinking about my beautiful baby girl going away, but can't control it, so I guess I'll have to go with it!

I'm already planning on writing her EVERY week, as well as sending videos and buying her a locket with our pic inside...........

Hope you are feeling GREAT today!
Erin

Hang in there about your sister and niece moving. My son moved to San Diego (he is a research scientist) and my daughter is in Virginia (with my precious grandsons!). It's hard but you can still stay close. It's just important to make sure and keep phone calls at the top of your priority list. Web cams are great, too.

Thinking of you and wishing you good days ahead.
