I don't have anything to say tonight that I have not already said before, but I again want to thank you all for comforting this family. You all have served as arms of the Lord to cover us in prayer, and things are happening in this family! The obvious is the donations which we are are seeing everyday, which I have come to a conclusion that should I ever need some serious work done in this world, I'm making sure I've got Steve on my side before I make a move (thanks again bud).
So, something that Amy did not mentionon caringbridge yesterday, because she does not like getting her hopes up, was that Savannah's checkup went very well yesterday, as in awesome! So much so that they do not need us to come up to Portland on Thursday. Yes! YES! So today we were able to take a rest (despite waking up twice (Savannah can't hold her #2s at night anymore)) and were able to stay at home and Amy's awesome Mom came over and cleaned house and watched Savannah while Amy and I caught a breather. It was funny that while we were out trying to forget it all for a minute, we kept looking at pictures of Savannah before during and after her diagnosis. She's out little girl and we can't imagine how another little one is going to fit in right now, but we are gladly going to welcome God's little boy, which I don't think we've mentioned his name. We combined middle names from Amy's side and mine came up with Cameron Jacob. From the way he's been doing triple axels this week, he's going to be as much of a challenge as Savannah's been.
Thanks fire-friends
BTW, Amy and especially me are a little uncreative inregards to what type of a care package would be good for Savannah. I will say no more stuffed animals. We've lined the floor with them now. Right now Amy and I are more along the lines of some children's books and movies. She loves blowing bubbles, and loves cowgirl stuff. We're okay on stickers and art related things.

We were able to go to the Oregon Coast aquarium yesterday and via candlelighters (a group for kids with ccer) we were able to get free admission. Savannah is still on her steroids and her attitude shows it. The medicine makes her very irritable and has caused excessive weight gain. Amy and I are driving up tonight to stay at the McDonald house where tomorrow morning Savannah will have a port installed in her chest where the docs can administer her meds easily due to the frequency it is needed.
All being said, we are blessed to be able to say that through this difficult time the Lord has blessed us with friendship from people we never would have met, generosity from people we don't even know, and love and prayers from believers and non-believers. I would like to share on the day that is the most important to me that Christ has risen and in doing so brought us salvation. I know that whatever trials we have are only temporary and that the Lord will see us through them all. The past month has changed this family forever and I am so blessed to have had the members of this forum help us with prayer and donations.
bgbuck153 came through on this ammo sale so I just sent Dan a PP for $180. Dan, Savannah and their family are in our hearts so I hope this helps. Thanks for the opportunity to pitch in....
Biden's most truthful quote ever came during his first press conference, 03/25/21. Drum roll please...... "I don't know, to be clear." and THAT is one promise he's kept!!!
My family's prayers are with your family in this trying time. Thank you for your service. My youger brother is ex airforce and served in the beginning of this mess. I don't have much to offer but I do have a coffee can full of once fired 223 (556) brass. Somebody needs this so make a donation and pay the man and I'll cover shipping. God bless.
If you don't have anything nice to say, you must be talking about Hilary Clinton.
When it's time to bury your guns it's time to dig em up.
I counted that brass and there are right at 350 in the can. Somebody wants this stuff so come on and make a donation. If nobody buys this here I'll throw it on gunbroker and then donate the cash if you guys think thats a better plan. I don't have a clue what it's worth so give me some input guys. Thanks.

I would just list it in the classifieds and make sure you include in the subject that proceeds will go to Savannah.
Ahem. If anybody cares........and everybody should....... We have something HUGE fixin' to happen here for Savannah. Stay tuned because I'm telling you.......it's a big deal.
Told you! Wade With Cross Hair Consulting (ursus148) has contributed a 7-day African Safari with 100% of the proceeds going to Savannah's fund. Thanks, Wade. Minimum bid is $1,800.
257, dvdgeorge, and all the wonderful folks here. I can't get this off my mind. God Bless you all for your giving hearts, and special prayers for Savannah and her family continue from W TX. Savannah and her family are the obvious concerns, but I hope your generosity is rewarded and comes back around 10fold to each one of you.
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.
