Ken and Tina

We had a few more visitors today. Ken and Tina Whalen drove all the way up from Lompoc to come and bring Jillian many many gifts as well as the donations that they have raised so far with their fundraisers. Now I know I have stressed the fact that my husband works for an amazing company but I don’t believe anyone truly understands just how amazing ExxonMobil really is. We are in shock about how generous of a donation they have raised so far and the fundraiser is not even over yet! Ken and Tina are an AMAZING couple who have spent multiple hours and time supporting Jillian. Tina has made dozens and dozens of jars of salsa for her salsa fundraiser and I can’t even imagine what it has cost her to do that. Ken has harassed and bugged so many employees at work to support Jillian and the outcome is INSANE! So I say a HUGE thank you to Ken and Tina for being two of the most kindness people we have ever met. It was so much fun just sitting there and talking with you. When all this is over and we are home we are looking forward to that play day with your beautiful granddaughter! Also big thanks to your family who have also put together gifts not only for Jillian but for myself as well. Truly awesome people! Without the support of all the ExxonMobil family and employees you would not have been able to raise what you have raised. So thank you also to everyone who has participated so far in Jillian’s fundraiser, we CANNOT stress our gratitude to you all!

Jillian has had a good day today so far. She is behind on some of her meds so we are just waiting until they get here and then we will see how she responds to them. She is still totally in love with her hair, which I am so in love with too. We seriously should have cut it sooner!

Jillian has had a blast having her grandma here all day and it really puts me in a better mood having her close too. Too bad she cannot stay this whole time! Here are the two of them goofy around together. I believe grandma is trying to stab her with her fake sword and Jillian is trying to stop her!

Daniel stayed in my mom’s hotel last night so he could get a good night’s rest. He came back looking like this. Supporting his daughter but now I need to get used to it!
