Johnathan,

I watched your class graduate the other day, and it didn't hit me until I saw your memorial slides in the presentation that this was your year.

I'm sure you're very proud of your class, and I know for a fact that you would have went on to do some amazing things after your graduation.

Your presence was felt at the graduation, and I'm very glad to see that you were honoured on June 22 with your class. It was the only way and you deserved to be.

We all miss you still, but we're able to continue our lives with the lessons you taught up.

Happy graduation Buddy!

Hi Everyone,

I've been thinking of Jonathan and Kent a lot the last few days, so I wanted to stop by to say 'Hi' to you all. I often wonder what you are up to these days and how big Kent must be growing, I bet I would hardly recognize him! I wonder if he towers over Mom and Dad yet?? ;-) Well, I hope you are enjoying a peaceful Remebrance Day weekend and enjoying the school year. Sending you all our best wishes,

Tracey, Steve, Quinn and Callum xoxo <traceyehewison@shaw.ca>

Dear Brenda, Ken and Kent,
Jon has been on my mind a lot these past two months, so I thought I would stop by and let you know, he's never forgotten. He truly was such a beautiful child, with the sweetest smile. We were so blessed to meet him, and all of you.
I hope you had a peaceful Christmas and wish you all the best in 2010.

Hello, special soul. I was just thinking about you again. What a blessing it was to be able to meet you, just that one time. I often think of your parents and Kent, I wonder how they are managing and what changes have gone on in their lives. Keep watching over them and keep them safe. Quinn and Callum are getting very big, too quickly it seems, but each day continues to be an adventure. Thank you for the lessons you gave to all of us....

Hi there Watson's. We just saw a clip on the Big Breakfast about Jonathon and the car push. The kids came running from the kitchen when they heard his name, they all remembered Jonathon from Family Camp in Portage. We think that it is great they they are thinking about him while they do the push. You must be so proud of your son, he touched a lot of people.
Hope all is well with your family.

I know this is going to be a tough holiday for you all and I want you to know, you are in our thoughts and prayers. Whatever your plans are for this year, be they at home or abroad, I hope you take comfort in the love you feel for each other and for Jon. I did not know about this library, read about it below, how wonderful, what a special way to honor such a special boy as Jon!

Dear Brenda, Ken, and Kent,
I have been thinking about you guys a lot, I sure miss hearing all your news. I have also been thinking about Jonathan, I especially miss him, and hearing about his adventures with his best sidekick Kent. I hope you know that we haven't forgotten any of you and that we care very much how you are doing, even though we did not have the chance to get to know you all as well as we would have liked, living so far away. I hope if you come out this way again, you will be sure to drop us a line and let us know you are coming....Quinn and Callum would love to hang out with Kent and talk about PS2 and ATV's and all things "boy".

Hi Brenda..
We were at the Rainbow Society's Auction last night and
I was just thinking about your family today. I hope
all is well. Claude told us that you spent Christmas in
Mexico, I hope it was a nice get-a-way. Looking back on
some entries in the guestbook I realized that Jon's B-day
is the same as my dad's, so I will always remember.

Hello Brenda, Ken, and Kent...

I know we haven't written much, and thats okay. I know you will let me know when you need me.

I think the firsts are the hardest to deal with, but you will make it through them..one step at a time...just keep on stepping. Take care of each other and know that your other special boy is right beside you.

Know that you are not alone and our thoughts and prayers are with you each step of your journey.

Kent...don't eat all the chocolate from the Easter bunny...save some for me!

Love,
Lynda, Glen and Shannon

Our thoughts are with you and your birthday boy. I always remembered because Don's son
"Jarrod" is the 8th. I hope you are holding together some how? I do know how terribly hard and
painful this all is. Jordan's 2nd year away is 4/14...Don and I always talk about our boys and
the fun we had in New York...with Kim and Tori too! Johathan's birthday was so much fun.
I know you miss him and want him back. Please know that I'm hugging you. Should you ever want
to talk....I am here.
Love to you always,

Happy Birthday, Jonathan, your first birthday in Heaven. 12 candles today on your Heavenly cake, I am sure there is a big celebration going on in Heaven today. Quinn, Callum and I still talk about the wonderful day we got to meet you and play at Ton of Fun...I found some of the photos of that day (I thought they were all lost when my computer crashed, but somehow, a few remained), a moment caught in time forever. We may not have your physical presence here anymore and that makes us very sad, but we know your soul is soaring high and free, and that makes us happy. Till we meet again, we'll remember you always and carry you in our hearts...love and hugs,

Happy first birthday in heaven Jon. We miss you here on earth and give thanks for the opportunity of getting to know you at clinic. You are the brightest star in the heavens and when we see that bright star it is you we think of . As much as we miss you Jonathan we would never wish you back to have to go through all you did. But because of all the treatments and tests that you did go through, it may be the right treatment for another child with neuroblastoma. To your Mom, Dad and Kent we pray that they find comfort from the Great Comforter our Lord and Saviour. Not only are you spending your first birthday in heaven, but also your first Easter. We know this is an exceptionally hard time for your family, but they are in our prayers. So Jonathan once again Happy first Birthday in Heaven and keep on being that bright shining star that we watch. We love and miss you more than any amount of words can ever say and would love to see those mischevious eyes and your beautiful smile again, but we will have to wait until it is our turn to make that trip to Heaven. Love you and miss you Jon.

Hi Guys,
Was just thinking of Jon and thought I would stop by and say Hello. We have quite a bit of snow on the ground here, but that makes for fun sledding and ice skating. We are all hoping spring will come soon, however :-) Quinn had group A strep and was home all last week, but back to school today. His team lost their game and are now out of the playoffs, you can't win 'em all. They still have a tournament and practices, etc to go, so we won't be done hockey for some time yet. Callum is off on a field trip to the Glenbow Museum and I hope his class is learning lots and having fun. That's all our news for now, hope Kent is getting out lots with Dad on the sleds and maybe making a hockey game or two.
Hugs and love,

Hi Kent! (and Jon, I know you can see us :-)

Well, we had a lovely dump of snow this morning, but it's not cold out...and the snow is the PACKING kind! We have some plans to meet up for some sledding after school with friends, so looking forward to that. How is that weather out your way? More snow means more time on the snowmobile, right? :-)
Hope you are enjoying school and your friends. Callum has a building night at the school today, we have to help him put together his chosen 'landmark'...he's doing the Calgary Tower. I wonder, did you get a chance to go way up in the tower when you were in Calgary?? I have had breakfast in the tower restaurant once, but the slight motion of the spin made me feel a bit tummy yucky! :-)
I just really wanted to stop by and let you know, you, Mom and Dad are in my thoughts an awful lot, as is Jon. We won't every forget him, I hope you know that. Keep in touch, ok? We really like to hear all your news.

Jon,
I think about you everyday, at the quiet moments, and wish we had so much more time to get to know you. We were so blessed to have you touch our lives, and I know I am a better Mom to Quinn and Callum because of you and other children who are still in the battle. We miss all Mom's updates on your latest adventures with Kent and hearing about the quad riding...we know you were such a great driver! And an even better son, you are loved!
Brenda, Ken and Kent, we know there are no words to help, but hope you can take some comfort in knowing there are many who keep you in their thoughts and prayers. We'll always be your friends and be here if you need us. I wish we lived closer, so we could speak with action, instead of just words. We hope your wonderful memories of Jon will help sustain you through this holiday season.
Hugs and love,

Tracey , Steve, Quinn and Callum xo HAB <traceyhewison@shaw.ca>

I know it's been like forever since I've visited you.
I have just been so busy.
But I think of you always.



My First Christmas in Heaven

I see the countless Christmas trees,
Around the world below,
With tiny lights like Heaven’s stars
Reflecting on the snow.
The sight is so spectacular,
Please wipe away that tear,
For I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.
I hear the many Christmas songs,
That people hold so dear,
But the sounds of music don’t compare,
With the Christmas choir up here.
I have no words to tell you,
The joy their voices bring,
For it is beyond description,
To hear the angels sing.
I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart,
But I am not so far away,
We really aren’t apart.
So be happy for me, dear ones,
You know I hold you dear
And be glad I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.
I send you each a special gift,
From the heavenly home above,
I send you each a memory,
Of my undying love.
After all “Love” is a gift,
More precious than pure gold,
It was always most important,
In the stories Jesus told.
Please love and keep each other,
As my heavenly father said to do,
For I can’t count the blessings of love,
He has for each of you.
So have a Merry Christmas,
And wipe away that tear,
Remember, I’m spending Christmas,
With Jesus Christ this year.

Dear Watson Family: Jon will live on in the hearts & minds of so many. May you find comfort in the poem that follows..........
Christmas in Heaven"

I see the countless Christmas trees
around the world below
with tiny lights like heaven's stars
reflecting on the snow.


The sight is so spectacular,
please wipe away that tear
for I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year.


I hear the many Christmas songs
that people hold so dear
but the sounds of music can't compare
with the Christmas choir up here.


I have no words to tell you
of the joy their voices bring
for it is beyond description
to hear the angels sing.


I know how much you miss me,
I see the pain inside your heart
for I am spending Christmas
with Jesus Christ this year..


I can't tell you of the splendor
or the peace here in this place
Can you just imagine Christmas
with our Savior face to face?


I'll ask him to lift your spirit
as I tell him of your love
so then pray for one another
as you lift your eyes above.


Please let your hearts be joyful
and let your spirit sing
for I am spending Christmas in heaven
and I'm walking with the King.

My little boy, Tommy is in heaven too from a brain stem tumor. When he went, I could hear the sound of children laughing. I know that our special children are all together. Anything you need- email. Just don't let what anyone says (even if they mean well) take anything away from you. A mother who had the same thing happen to her told me that. I have had to remind myself of it many times. http://www3.caringbridge.org/nj/tommy/

Dear Brenda, Ken and Kent I was so sorry and saddened to hear about Jonathon. I found out at work and I was just grief stricken because I knew I had to tell Kendra. Kendra thought the world of Jonathon because he was so kind to her when she needed help with her school work. Jonathon was always helping Kendra and Kendra was so grateful. I was so in awe of Jon because no matter how much he has gone through he still found the time to help others in their time of need. May God bless and keep Jonathon as we will in our hearts forever.

I remember seeing Jon dressed for Halloween as a freaky surgeon in green hair and funny fingers. I was just wondering if his costume reflected how he felt about his doctors. HAHAHAHAHA!!!!!

We will hold our precious children in our arms again one day, but next time it will be in a world much better than this and it will be forever.

I didn't realize how long his fight was (until I read it on Julianna's page) and what a fantastically courageous family you guys are! Jonathan truly IS a Hero! He will never be forgotten.

We have just heard that your darling Jonathan has earned his beautiful angel wings. (friends knew that I have been without a computer and called to let me know) Words are so completely inadequate to express the sorrow that we feel in our hearts. We will hold you in our thoughts and prayers, that you will find the strength to carry you through the difficult days that lie ahead and beyond. We will be forever grateful for the blessing of meeting you all and especially Jonathan, truly an angel on earth, as he is now in Heaven. Jonathan eminated a sweetness and wisdom such as I have never witnessed before in any young man of his tender years. He truly was a gift to all...thank you so much for sharing that gift with us. We will never, ever forget Jonathan. I can say in all sincerity, that I loved Jon. I will miss him so, so much, as I know will all the HAB family.
Jonathan, we love you buddy...keep a special eye on Kent and Mom and Dad and keep them safe, till they can join you in Heaven. We'll all meet again one day.

Our family extends our deepest sympathy to the entire Watson family. We will miss Jonathan more than words can ever say. Jon was a very special person to all of us and we will miss him. It has been an honor to know Jon and he has truly given inspiration to Mykayla with her battle. Our prayers are with your family that you may find comfort in the Lord at this trying time. God had a special plan for planting Jonathan on this earth. Jonathan showed many people how to keep the faith and how to continue fighting and not giving up. We will never forget this precious person and give thanks to God for allowing us the privelege of getting to know Jonathan. Jonathan was another Solomon from the Bible, a wise person, a person that was kind and understanding of others. May Jonathan now be with the other four angels that we have gotten to know in the past two years, and may you Ken, Brenda and Kent be touched by our great Comforter, the Lord and know that He is looking after your precious child now.
God bless each of you in a special way. Fly free of pain now Jonathan as you have earned those wings . We love you Jon Boy. xoxoxoxo

God gave to us a gift one day that we all would have to share. His name was Jonathan Watson, and he taught us all to care. He was so brave and courageous; he fought right till the end. And I am very proud to say he was my friend. His smile could brighten any room, he loved to laugh and play. God, I just don't understand why you had to take him away. I know in my heart there is a reason, because you only take the best. And now there is no more suffering and he really is at rest. So watch over us all from heaven Jon, and be with us as we play. Help us to remember your kindness everyday. WE WILL NEVER FORGET YOU!!!!!

Hello Brenda, Ken & Kent,

Words are meaningless right now I know. Jon is missing from our world, which is the greatest most horrendous thing as parents and brothers or sisters have to go through. Just know that Jon is NOT alone, one of his special friends was beside him helping him and making him not feel alone...I know this in my heart because Jon was a very special friend to Shawn and he will be beside Jon always. They will be able to play and have little boy fun together like they wanted to do here but were unable. Brenda, your little boy will always be with you and looking after you and Ken & Kent. Jonathon is a very special child who taught us all alot things. His perserverance was tremendous. He was a special little man to me, and he knew that, as I would like you to know it too. Our love & prayers surround you now and in the hard days to follow. My heart hears yours and together we will be. Love, "Angel Shawn", Lynda, Glen & Shannon

We too are at a loss for words. We pray for God to give you the strength to cope with these hard times. Our sympathies are with you and your family. "Those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They will soar on wings like eagles". Isaiah 40:31

May the God of peace be with you today and forever.
You and Jon have been an inspiration to us, and you may not have even realized that. Your strength amazes us!!

Hi Brenda, Ken and Kent,

We are so very sorry to learn of your Jonathan's passing. So very sorry. Without a doubt, his battle was one of the most courageous that we have ever seen or heard of, and we can only imagine how proud of Jonathan you must be. We can also only imagine the hurt and emptiness that you are feeling right now, and we will pray for you all to find the strength to face whatever the days ahead may bring. And we will pray for Jonathan to finally find his peace, because nobody deserves it more than him.

Love and sorrow,

We will always remember Jon speaking out at the closing chapel at the Candlelighters weekend. Such strong words from such a strong, brave boy. You are right, Cancer does Suck and has been very unfair to you. We will pray for strength for your family.

Hi again,Jon and Kent!
Busy weekend so far! Yesterday, Quinn had a hockey game (which we lost 8-3, unfortunately, but the boys still played well). Then we went with friends to bowling at Chinook Centre and our friend bowled a 220, so we were all very excited! I managed to get a stike, by bowling between my legs, pretty funny :-) We are at my Mom's house now for dinner, getting to check out her fancy new laptop, wish I could have one of these! Hope you had a really good weekend with Mom and Dad. Keeping the good energy coming your way,
hugs,

Hi Jon, Hi Kent!
Just stopping by to say HI :) Hope all is well in your neck of the woods. We have a five day weekend now, for Rememberance Day plus we had a PD day today. We had a busy day with the boys friends Davis and Rhys, you should have seen them having a 'four way' light sabre battle...yes, Star Wars fever is alive and well at our house! Then we went to the park and attempted to fly the kites, it was a bit hairy! Then Cal had a hair cut (very cute) and off to Aunty Kary's for yummy lasagna supper :)
I hope you are having fun with your PS2 battles with Kent and enjoying time at school. We think of you all the time and keep you in our prayers.
Big hugs,

Well, I posted the other day and must have forgotten to hit 'post', but since I forget a lot of things these days, I am not surprised ;-) I was so happy to hear that you have returned to school Jon, I am sure all your friends are thrilled to see you! I hope you guys have a really great Hallowe'en and look forward to hearing about your costumes. I'll be sure to send you a pic of Quinn (still undecided...he wants old Ninja costume, and I want a new Caveman costume...who will win??) and Callum (Darth Vader). We had great weather for the last two days, but flurries are coming in tonight, brrrr. Hope you can at least get away with no snow on the big night....us too!

I was very shocked to hear the news about Jonathan, and I can only imagine how terrified and scared you must be. I have been praying since the time we met in New York that Jonathan would have the ability to fight this cancer and come out a winner. So far he has been very strong! He is a great kid, and we are praying that this radiation helps relieve the pressure from his spinal cord and that he will be able to be up and on his feet again! I will email all of my friends from my bible study and have them start praying. Good Luck and give Jonathan our love. Brenda, take care of yourself, also.

I was so shocked to read your update. When we saw you at clinic you were so bubbly and happy showing us your drawings. Mykayla wanted to know if there was any new updates about you so I checked. We are all devastated by this yet another battle for you to beat. Fight Jonathan and beat this terrible disease that is trying to ruin you. We are all praying for you . Jon I am going to put you on our prayer list at our church. Just remember my dear friend that Nothing is Impossible with God. That is the Bible verse that Mykayla learned when she first started Sunday School and is to this day using these strong words to carry her on her daily walk. We pray that the Mighty and Powerful Physician our Lord and Saviour will lay His healing hand on you and give you a long and healthy life.
Jon I just got off the phone with Kris (Mykayla's Mom) and she was talking to your Mom and it is so good to hear that the surgery was successful. Way to go our Mighty Hero, Keep fighting and we will keep praying. God Bless You Jonathan and also the rest of your family. Much Love, Hugs and prayers from all of us.

Hey Jon,
Well, I was wrong, not home ;-) Thanks for the update, Brenda. So sorry to hear that Jon was dehydrated and back in hospital, I REALLY hope you all made that crabfest tonight....YUM! Do you also like lobster and shrimp, Jon? Quinn loves all of those as well, and tonight, while Cally and I had burgers, Quinn chowed on shrimp :) I hope you will all be heading home on Friday, with Jon feeling much better. Brenda, hope you can have one great day of back to school shopping and get it all done in one fell swoop, but if not, it will all work out in the end..wish I lived in MB, so I could shop for you, I do love to shop:) Take special care, have a great first day back to school Jon and Kent!

I have been checking for your updates. Sorry that Jon is back in hospital, but my prayers are with him and all of your family. Tell Jon to have some crab for all of us as it is a favorite here also. Mykayla goes to Red Lobster just for the crab ( and yes the butter too). Keep the faith Brenda and will continue our prayers. Don't worry about all the things you have to do before school starts, just look after those precious sons of yours.
Love and prayers Ruth

Hi Jon and all your family
We just got back from taking Mykayla to the Black Hills as our treat to her for all she has been going through and I decided to check your site. I am so sorry for all you have been going through and we all pray that they are going to find the right treatment for you. You are such a brave, wonderful and happy go lucky person. Keep on fighting Jon and we will keep you in our prayers always. Mom, Dad and Kent, keep positive thoughts . It has to be rough on all of you watching Jon going through all of this. Our prayers are with the entire family. Just the few times we have talked at clinic I have seen a side of your family that is a true inspiration to me. Keep on being positive and remember Nothing is impossible with God. Those are the words that Mykayla has used throughout her treatments and uses them on a daily basis. Our love, thoughts and prayers are with you.

I am Krystianna'a Granny and if anyone wants to correspond with our family it is better to e-mail me as I check my e-mail almost every day. Lilian, Krystianna's mother is a teacher with the Toronto Board and is on holiday just now and sometines has trouble getting her e-mails directed to home. She forgot to mention that Krystianna had all her treatment at Sick Kids Toronto. This time round there is a satelite hospital very near us here in Scarborough, Centenary, where she can go for blood tests and other minor procedures. Krytianna has lost her gorgeous red hair for the second time but although she is nine and very fashion conscious, she doesn't seem to mind too much!

HELLO FROM A FAMILY GOING THROUGH SIMILAR THINGS.My daughter, Krystianna, was diagnosed in May 2001 when she was 5. She had 5 rounds of chemo, surgery, radiation,and a stem cell transplant and 13 months of Accutane. She then had 3years and 4months NED. Unfortunately in May this year she had a tummy ache and it's back! She's had 3 rounds of Topo-Cyclo and has had a very good response, is feeling great and has begun horseback riding lessons!

Brenda,

I cannot imagine how scared you must have felt seeing Jon having a seizure in Walmart. Thank god that nice nurse was there to help out until the ambulance arrived, although I am sure that by now, you could be a nurse yourself! Obviously, this news is very concerning....how can one doctor see a lesion that another cannot, off the same CT scan, makes no sense? Very frustrating! I'm going with your doc/radiologist, no lesion! I hope Jon is feeling as well as he can right now and there have been no further seizures. Will look forward to hearing that you are on the road to Chicago and seeing Dr. Cohn. Keeping you all in our prayers and sending you our very best vibes. Also thinking lots about Kent, I know this isn't easy on him, or any of you. Sending you hugs over the internet and all our best wishes...

Hi Jon, Hi Kent!
Hey, I hope we get to see some of the pics from Disney, that is so great you could have a special week with Mom and Dad in the land of magic :-)
The rain has finally stopped here, it was crazy but Calgary got away relatively unscathed. The water is coming over the spillway at the Glenmore dam, the first time since the 1950s, pretty wild! There is so much silt in the water, they are having a hard time keeping up with demand, it should settle down in about three weeks. You probably drove over the reservoir, on Glenmore Trail, at some point in your visit to Calgary :-)
Good luck with your next chemo, and know that you are always in our thoughts and prayers.

Oh buddy, so sorry to hear you have been stuck in the hospital. Hoping the antibiotics do their job and get rid of the fever and the PICC line isn't bugging you too much. Sending our best vibes for you to get out of the hospital over the weekend and get Mom home to get caught up on her chores ;-) Keep fighting buddy, you are in our prayers.
Sending you big hugs and big HI's from your buds Quinn and Cal. We haven't taken out the dirt bikes yet, too cold, but we'll send you some pics when we do...we look forward to seeing more of you on your ATV!

Hi Jon, Hi Kent!
Just dropping by to say HI, and hope you had a good weekend. We are just back from a hockey tournie in Strathmore, it was eventful. I have decided I really like this town, Strathmore, it has under 10,000 people and is very 'community' minded, with many great facilities and recreational opportunities...hmmm, I may be looking for a move?? LOL Sometimes I think this city is just getting too big for us! Looking forward to hearing more about the 'going's on' in the Watson household and how things are looking with the new protocol option. Take special care, thinking of you lots,
big hugs,

Hi Brenda,
That clinical trial in Chicago sounds promising. My father in law lives in that area, very cold in the winter compared to where we are (Florida) but my kids love the snow.

Thought Jonathan and you guys would enjoy this :) It really made me laugh when it happened. Here's the latest from the Haldago Bay flock (8 birds.)

Tripoli and Pompeii had quite the conversation last night. Tripoli is my two year old Yellow Nape Amazon and Pompeii is the two year old Severe Macaw. And TRUST ME, Tripoli and Pompeii know what they're saying.

TRIPOLI: (Singing) "Winnie the pooh, tubby little cubby all stuffed with fluff.....(talking) OHHHHHHHHHH, baby, I'm SOOOOOOOOO good.I sing good. Yes, I'm GOOD."

POMPEII: (Leaning toward Tripoli's cage) "BAD."

TRIPOLI: "OH! (INSULTED TONE. She moves over directly next to Pompeii's cage, ruffled up.) "Well then, now I sing Hello Dolly!"

(She increases the volume, getting super loud to annoy Pompeii, and deliberately draws out every note!) HELLLLLLLO, DOLLY, WELL HELLLLLLLLO Dolly..."

And proceeds to sing the ENTIRE first verse and chorus to a very annoyed macaw!

And the best part?
When Tripoli got done, she straightened up and GIGGLED.

Have a good week! :) (Tripoli is in there talking away, right now. She just said "Ahoy, matey! Shiver me timbers, ha ha ha!"

Note: my website with the birds on it isn't currently up. I'll let you know when it is so you can actually "meet" the flock.

Jonathan,
WOW!I just finished reading through your whole history of your battle with cancer. You have gone through more in your young life than most people would experience in a lifetime. I don't even know you, but you are my hero! My husband Rick and I (Lola) are friends of your mom, we knew her long before you entered the world. She is a special lady, as you know! And you sure sound like a special boy! Hopefully we'll get to meet you someday. We live way up north in a city called Flin Flon, where the men work underground in a mine, unlike the farming community where you live. It takes us about 8 hours to drive to Winnipeg, so we only usually go there 2 or 3 times a year. You're lucky you live so close!
Anyway, it was nice to get to know about you, Jonathan. Rick and I will be thinking about you lots, and we sure hope you have a healthy and happy new year. Take care, and keep up the fight!

Sincerely,
Rick and Lola Leclair

But you guys curl, and that's something my boys haven't done yet:) I hope you had lots of fun showing off to your friend Vicky, I am sure she was very impressed :0) You sound very busy with school, and the upcoming pageant, I bet it will be GREAT!
Brenda, I am so happy to hear that Jon is handling his treatment well. I am also very encouraged to hear about the new treatment in Chicago. You know we keep Jon in our prayers always....we'll never give up hoping for that cure!

Life has been very busy here and there have been some sad things happen to friends and co workers families...
Quinn and Cally are great and both enjoying their hockey. Quinn's team is the top of their division, they are called the 'Pirates' and boy, do they know how to have fun! Callum has his final skate of this session tomorrow night, and Daddy is invited out to skate a game of shinny with him, that will be very exciting for Cally:) Say HI to Kent for us too, we love to hear what things he has been getting up to, and hopefully you guys are fighting over the Playstation, then I know you are feeling better!

Know you remain in our prayers always, and I hope your counts were good enough to get a good start on your next round.

HI!

So glad Jonathan is enjoying school--it's great he gets to have some "regular kid" experiences after dealing with so much hospital stuff.

Sarah is happily enrolled in third grade and although the memories of her hospital days seem far away, they will always be a part of our lives. Also, since we cancer parents never know what the future holds for our kids, we are especially thankful for each day that she feels so good.

Jonathan, you have fun and never lose that happy smile. :-)

Hi there Watson's!
Thanks for the update Brenda, I am so happy to hear that Jon is doing well with the Fen and having few/no side effects, really great news :0) Sounds like both boys have great teachers and are off to a super start for the school year! Quinn is also in a split, the 4/5 split with a new teacher to the school, he seems happy. Callum is loving his kindergarten class and has Mrs. E, just as Quinn did. Our weather has improved somewhat and we have had the odd beautiful fall day, which is a treat, I hope we get some more!! Very busy with hockey evaluations and all the school notices to fill out! Is Jon going to be curling this year again? Can't wait to see all the pics from the Push for the Cure, hope you all have a great time at the event, especially Jon and Kent! Take care!
Big hugs,

LOOKING FOR A MIRACLE

Looking for a miracle with faith,
I will not be alone in my dismay.
God’s love holds me close,
Taking my doubts faraway.

God holds me in His caring hands,
Shielding me from every hurt.
He gives me the will to look beyond,
For a miracle with His loving comfort.

Though my road has become rough to bear,
Sickness has invaded the serenity known.
I will look for that miracle with hope,
Knowing I never stand alone.

Hi Jonathan and Kent,
I wonder when you guys start school? Quinn and Callum go back Sept 7th...should be interesting whether they STAY there or not, with the teachers threatening a strike...hopefully they can work it all out. I hope your meds are going well Jon and you all managed to make it out to Lundar Beach. We are still COLD and RAINY in Calgary, but I think it's your turn for the good weather that we had earlier on...what a strange summer this has been for weather! I am hoping this means a real easy winter...we'll see, better not hold my breath! Check back with you soon, hope all is well,

Hi Jon, Hi Kent!
Your cold, cold, cold has come here, here, here! I hope that means you are getting the sunshine and warmth that we were having before :0) Maybe you'll get a few more times in the pool yet! Cal was using my swiffer broom to push around an empty cardboard toy box this morning, he said he was 'curling'! Quinn started power skating last night, need to get those legs ready for hockey evaluations, starting in September. The boys both start school on Sept. 7, when do you boys go back to school? If this weather keeps up for long, I think the boys will be happy to be starting school again! We have haircuts coming up soon (Cally really is needing one!!) and time to go get new running shoes too, since they have to have indoor and outdoor shoes. Quinn bought a used Sled Storm PS game the other day, as his old one was wrecked...we bought one of those 'Disc Doctor's' as well, so they have been having fun playing alot of the old PS games that they had scratched up! He is also loving his PS2 Colin McCrae game, rally ho! I hope you guys are still having fun with your games, have any suggestions for us?? Hope everything is going well with the new protocol, keeping you in our thoughts and prayers,
big hugs,

Hello, i was watching a couple of new records being set at the Olympics today, so thought i would look up some slightly stranger ones instead of some jokes.

Here's a couple;

Most spoons balanced on the face
Tim Johnston (USA) (b. 1 January 1992), was able to balance on his face (one on each ear, two on each cheek, three on his chin, two on his lips, one on his nose and three on his forehead) and balance them for 30 seconds at on May 28, 2004.


British pub landlord Garry Turner clipped 153 ordinary wooden clothes pegs on his face at the WH Smith bookshop in York, Yorkshire, UK, on September 28, 2002

Hi Guys,
Thanks for the update Brenda, I'm glad to hear you are home..again! I hope you will be home for much longer this time. Keep sipping those fluids Jon, and I hope you will soon be well enough to be splashing about in the pool. Personally, I think there should always be a radiologist around 24/7,(go figure, I sort of think Jon's results are important!) but maybe you have a special one that you like to have read the results? I hope you will have some answers soon, it can't be fun waiting around to find things out. July sure did go whipping by fast, I am sure even more so for you than most...and no, I don't think two weeks in the hospital is fair at all, but then, none of this is really fair, is it? I am going to be hoping big time for a really good August for you all! Hang tough, keep smiling, good thoughts coming your way....
love and hugs to the two cute boys,

Hi Jonathan,

I wonder how you are feeling tonight? I hope your day went well for you. We had a pretty laid back day, I was trying to organize things in the house and 'declutter', my own version of 'blues busting' :-) Steve had to work a concert for the Flames, so the boys and I were on our own. We decided to have soft taco's again, this is Quinn and Cal's new favorite food! I think they just get a kick out of making their own dinner...a little ground beef, a little salsa, a little cheese, a little lettuce...they won't do the sour cream, but I never skip that part :-) Then I took them down to Lake Sikome, which is just a few short minutes from our house...I am thinking a return visit is in order next year from the Watson's (I know that seems like sooo far away right now) and we will for sure spend a day at the lake, playing in the sand and water! Quinn and Cally were being total goof balls, you would have been laughing at them, they would come tearing out of the water everytime they saw a seagull, shrieking 'mine! mine! mine!' (from Nemo!) and then chase those birds all over the beach..pretty embarrassing,I'll tell ya..but funny!! I kept trying to tell them that they would never catch one of those birds, but they refused to be daunted from their task. That is what I hope for you Jon, don't let this chemo make you lose your spirit, keep fighting the hard fight Jon, you can make it back into remission and pick up with your life where you left off, I feel sure of it. Keep fighting, buddy, and we will do our part with so many prayers coming your way.

I don't know what to say, I feel so very heartbroken for Jon and you all that the progression has started again but am very hopeful you will get it to a stable point once again. We will never give up our hope for Jonathan. Having had the blessing of meeting him, we now know for certain what an incredibly special boy he is and we will do everything in our power to back him in this fight against this disease.

I hope things are going fairly 'normally' for you all and you are keeping busy with lots of fun activities! Looks like we may not get totally rained out this weekend:) The boys have been busy with school and rollerblading on the driveway, Cally is finally starting to get the hang of it, and Quinn is making progress with his slapshot! lol Steve is starting to do overtime for Stampede, hurray, more for me to shop with! Next weekend, I have my 20th High School Reunion, you have no idea how old that makes me feel!!! lol It feels like I was just there, so many great memories!

Hey there Jonathan and family
I have to be VERY honest. I had to go to Google to find out what curling was :-)). I then remembered I saw it once at winter Olympics several years ago. That's an interesting sport. Is it hard to play? I wanna try something new, I'm REAL tired of this usual set of hockey (Rooskies rule the NHL!!!), car-racing (GO JEFF GO!) and baseball (GO JETER GO!) :-)).

Hope you're doing fine. Is it warm already in Canada? Here in Siberia the snow just started to melt and I HATE this kind of weather - hot, cold, hot, cold. Can never dress appropriately. I'm either cold or hot. Yeah, I'm just being grumpy :-)). But I'm only like that in Spring, Summer, Fall and Winter.

Stay cool guys and have a nice country-music trip.

Their favorite truck this year was Monster Mutt, did you see that one too? Last year, it was Grave Digger.

Hiya, do you like pigs? I think they are so cute, some people keep them as pets, i would love one, people always say my rooms a pig stye, so maybe this would just prove them right and give me a good excuse for the mess? You never know!





So my quest tonight was to find some pig jokes, not as easy as it sounds, i can't believe how few pig jokes there seem to be compared to lots of other animals! Anyway i did find some, and here they are

Q: What do you call a pig with no legs?
A: A GroundHog.



Q: Why didn't the piglets listen to the teacher pig?
A: He was a boar.

Dear Jonathan and Family,
I got your website from the protocel group, just wanted to stop by for a visit and introduce myself, I'm Kathy, mom of David who is 11 and was dx. with a glioblastomaMultiforme Stage IV brain tumor/cancer. He has been on Protocel since his 2nd week of radiation began, June 13, 2003. He has had clear MRI's since surgery on 5/13/03! I can't say enough about protocel and I will have Jonathan in my prayers. Dave started his 8th (out of 10) round of chemo last night and unfortunately, I havd picked one of his older siblings up from school because he had thrown up...the tummy virus...well around 11 last night guess who got it?? Poor Dave was up all night throwing up between that and the chemo...but he said he was just lysing from the protocel! :) And everything was okay...and he's out skateboarding right now! So Jonathan, I know you'll feel better soon...and we will stop by again to visit!
Sincerely,
Kathy-mom of David

Hiya boys! Hope you caught lots of fish when you went ice fishing....and had a big, yummy fry up for dinner!
Jon, so sorry to hear you were down with a virus bud, and got dehydrated,yuck, but really happy to hear you are much better now! Quinn and Cal joined you, Quinn missed school M/T/W with a nasty virus and it's still hanging on..Cal missed preschool Wed and Fri, but seemed content to hang at home! He also is still feeling the virus, it's what I call a 'hanger on-er', lol.
Seems the weather was great across the land this weekend, that's nice for us all....let's hope it stays that way!!
Keep smiling, hugs,

Jonathan,
We are glad that you are feeling better now and are over your virus. We hope that you had a great time ice fishing. That sounds very interesting to those of us "down south". It is also funny that today was described as "warm" and "just above freezing". That doesn't seem too warm to us, but I guess it is all about what you are used to. It is about 60 degrees (F) here in North Carolina today. We hope that you continue to feel well. Take care and God bless.

Well, I must confess that I am very happy that you are going to Monster trucks and not me! I am certain I would not like all that noise. I don't mind watching a little on TV (are they really as huge as they look?) but then I can control the sound-level. I guess that is what I get for living in a small, quiet, town LOL!!

Hi boys:))

Valentine's is just around the corner...I hope you boys get LOTS...I bet there's more than a few girls out there making eyes at two cute boys like you! lol
The weather here warmed up considerably, and we are very grateful!! Cally had lots of fun outside today with Daddy, shovelling the rest of the snow off the driveway. They took all the chunks and made it into a cool little fort:) We STILL haven't tried out the igloo mold yet, but maybe next week, the boys have five days off in a row..whoohooo! I am thinking we will do some fun stuff, like go to a movie and down to the zoo to check out the polar bears, sound like fun?
I hope you are all doing well, we think of you often and keep you close in our prayers,

Hm, I was SURE there was an update somewhere (hint, hint).

Tell ya something. Today I went to buy some groceries. It's -15C with wind and snow and all that yukky stuff. I just ran to the nearest store, bought everything we needed and headed back home. On the way home I thought I was halucinating! I saw a BOY RIDING A BICYCLE! Can you believe that! He was wrapped in a down coat but still - BIKE in WINTER!? THAT's what I call a fan!!!

How are you guys doing? Any news? Come ON! We're waiting for an update here :-D. OK OK I'm not pushing :-)). See ya later guys/girls.

You are in our thoughts and prayers, just like always:)) Today was a very fun day, we went to watch the 3 on 3 Pond Hockey at the Corral, what a blast. Vancouver ended up winning the tournament for the second time in a row...Flames were dismal, they lost their two games:( Oh well, Quinn was able to get an autograph from Lanny McDonald and his Uncle Joel too:)) They were handing out all kinds of cool stuff, the boys each got two frisbies, hockey pucks that contained chocolate from Bernard Callebaut (the BEST!! Yum!), tatoo's and stickers. Quinn's hockey team made a bunch of money from selling tickets to the tournie...it works out great, whatever we sell, the alumni gives us back half...the rest of the money raised goes to underpriviledged kids, so they can play hockey too...everyone should get the chance to play hockey if they want to, right? It's a great charity event, and everyone has such a fun time.
We have had a big dump of snow and it is COLD, so COLD, brrrrrr....hope you guys have lots of snow but not too cold, and are having lots of fun....

Hey Jonathan and Family,

Happy New Year to you all! 2004 will be the big turnaround year for both you and my little girl Julianna.

You know, we may very well have bumped into each other at the CancerCare clinic here in Winnipeg. Julianna has been going there for crafts, painting, hanging with Hubert and to play (oh ya, and treatment too) since September. I saw that picture of Jonathan and the two big Push for the Cure guys on the bulletin board over by the foosball table...and here you are, all famous on the net too!

Anyways, kick butt at chemo today, and who knows, we might bump into each other today, too. We're meeting with Julianna's doctor (she sees Dr. Yanovsky) this afternoon to talk chemo ourselves.

Take care,

The birds were a-squawking and just bugging me in general to send this greeting for the New Year. New Years Eve they will be safely tucked in their cages, with a loud air purifier running so they don't hear all the fireworks in our neigbhorhood. We are a "stay at home" family on New Years, because so many of our neighbors put on spectacular fireworks displays. But that doesn't help with the birds, that's for sure! So, as we roll in this new year, we are going to be thinking about you, our long distance friend, and oh, yes, the dogs and cats just reminded me they want to be included in our wish, too. So, here goes. Happy New Year from: (there'll be a quiz on this later, ha ha ha!)

Sport the collie, Murphy the Shih-Tzu, Esmerelda the Maine Coon cat, Lex the black cat, O'Malley the grey and white cat, Charlotte the himalayan, Tripoli the Yellow Nape Amazon, Pompeii the Severe Macaw, Dasani the Blue-headed Pionus, Mokuba the Jenday, and Mirage the Congo African Grey...(all 11) and Sam the 6th grader, Ben the 4th grader, Cathie and Mike. Whew. By the time you get through all these, it will be 2005!

Remember, you can click on the photo to see the birds on their website. (They told me THEY own it now. Pushy, aren't they?)

Hey Jonathan! Hey Kent!

How's it going boys? We are FREEZING here in Calgary, but will bundle up later on and head out to Quinn's hockey game....all that cheering and screaming will warm us up for sure!! Quinn just came in with his Garfield book he got for Xmas and was telling me some funny lines, we thought we'd share some with you......here goes......

GARFIELD Eating Tips:
1. Never eat anything that's on fire.
2. Never leave your food dish under a birdcage. (EWW!!)
3. Only play in your food if you've already eaten your toys.
4. Only snack between meals.
5. Chew your food at least once.
6. Avoid fruits and nuts; after all,you are what you eat! (hahahaha....too many nuts around here!)
7. A handy breakfast tip; always check your Grape-nuts for squirrels.
8. Don't save your dessert for last..eat it first!!!

love and hugs and laughter,

Sam and Ben are certainly creative, aren't they?! They were clowning around and with a simple hat, paper towels for a beard, and lots of pillows...emphasize LOTS....they came up with these costumes that they wanted to share with you. I don't know, I think Ben (on the right) looks more like a very well fed Sumo wrestler!

It was fun to see them waddling around, and FORGET trying to sit down...they plopped right off the chairs. (That is, the chairs they managed to even make contact with. With so much stuffing, they couldn't see where they were aiming and usually ended up on the floor. They didn't feel a thing with so much padding, though!) They eventually gave up, so the costumes weren't on very long, needless to say. Thank goodness, I was worried about my pillows' stuffing!

Wow, your Arctic Cat Quad is SO COOL!! I can't wait for Quinn to come home so I can show him the great photo:))

Jon, I am so proud of you for doing so well in school, and I would be willing to bet big bucks that Mom and Dad are too:) And Kent also, you are both such clever boys! You are just as handsome as ever in your new school photo, and I am thrilled to hear your early results on the scan are looking good...we'll be praying for the rest of the results to be just as good! I hope you are both having a lot of fun curling too!

Well, Santa has his work cut out for him, it's gonna be hard to top the Quad!! LOL I bet you are getting excited for Christmas, did you go out on the quad and cut down a tree? That is so much fun, I really miss doing that...now we live in town, we just go to the IGA like everyone else and buy it from the boy scouts:)) I wonder if I could find a tree farm this year, so we could pick it and cut it down?? I am very excited to get decorating soon,I am behind since I was away in England...better get moving!!
Brenda, I see your friend Erin all the time and she is looking great:) She had her hair color changed and cut and it looks really good! Take special care of those cuties and I hope no news is good news continues on and you can live life as 'normal' as possible!

Well, our flock certainly is getting interesting. We got Dasani, the Blue Headed Pionus just a few weeks ago, and now we've added our fifth (and final) member. I felt bad for Dasani, because he is smaller than our amazon, macaw, and Congo African Grey....so we got him a pal! Meet Mokuba, aka "Moki." (Mokuba is Kaiba's younger brother on YuGiOh) Moki has such a brilliant yellow! He is a Jenday and absolutely adores Dasani. He has pretty blue and purple tail feathers, too. They wanted you to know they're thinking about you!

Hey Jonathan - Praying everything went well this week - and that you are home a smiling - sounds like you had a great October and I'll bet the rest of November will be better! Do you have snow yet? We have tons here is Calgary! My boys (Brennon - 8 & Noah - 4) are already in snowboard mode - our neighbours built a ramp in their front yard and the kids have been zooming down it every chance they get! They don't mind that there is snow all over! I guess grown-ups don't see things the same way you kids do - you manage to find the fun in everything! I hope you never loose that!

Happy Halloween from us goblins and ghouls over in Houston! (Well, okay, Ben is a YuGi and Sam is a ninja!) We are thinking about you. It was a steamy 80 degrees tonight, so all the witches, frankensteins, mummies and whatnots were pretty hot trotting around the neighborhoods. We wanted to wish you a great evening!

Jonathan:)

Hey buddy, how is it going? Are you getting any snow yet? We are getting a huge dump of snow...perfect for building snowmen! Cal and Quinn went to a Halloween party tonight at the community center in Parkland, it was very fun:) I sprayed Cal's white blonde hair with black hairspray...it really made him look different...so he could be Harry Potter, he told everyone he saw that he was Harry;) Quinn went as a black Ninja. He was kind of shy and didn't do much, but then he went in the music game and won and picked a treat, Steve and I were so happy at the smile on his face! Cal, however, did EVERYTHING and insisted on going in the 'haunted house' with me, he sure is a brave little guy! We made a bat with wings that moved, decorated a cookie, played the music game, and put our hands in boxes that had disgusting food stuffs (spaghetti, mushy cheese, hotdogs in jello..YUCK!) and had to guess the 'body part' it felt like, I only got eyeballs right! LOL Oh well, can't win em all! When we left, they were handed treat bags. It was a great start to the festivities to come!
Keep your eyes on the mail for your own 'Halloween treat'....oooooohhhhaaaaaahhhhhhaaaaaaaaa!!!!!!

This little cutie just dazzled me when I visited the bird nursery..so we've added a FIFTH bird to our flock! I couldn't believe the sizzling blue coming through..and he's only TWO MONTHS old! He's a boy (they did a DNA blood test) and he wobbled onto my finger and said, "Dah bop?" My heart went "pit pat" and the rest is history. I was lucky, because these guys aren't that common. This breeder has only had one other one...five years ago!

We are known for our unusual and original bird names. Well, this little guy is a BLUE HEADED PIONUS. So, meet DASANI. You know, like the BLUE bottled water by Pepsi? And guess what his nickname is? SONIC, (derived from the "sani") another BLUE item, ie, the Sega blue mascot? (think video games) How perfect!

Dasani will have a hot blue/purple head, it's awesome! But what you'd love the most is their smell. They have a fruity smell! Dasani smells like a cherry-orange mix! Well, we just wanted to share our baby news with you. Dasani will be in the nursery for another month or so. Bye for now, more bird pics coming soon.

Hi Jonathan and Brenda! Instead of posting my birds' pictures, this time I thought we'd go wild. This is one of 300 pictures I took. Did you know Indochinese tigers LOVE to swim? They do. We watched these two for about an hour at the Houston Zoo. They have a huge area to lounge around in, and a wide "river" to swim in. The Houston Zoo is known for its natural habitats...some are so good, you can't see the animals. We never did spot the leopards (no pun intended.) which were hidden up in their rocky area.

Here's some fact about these tigers for you! They are found in mainly in Thailand, but also Cambodia, China, Malaysia, Myanmar, Jamaica, Virgin Islands (U.S.)
They like forest but also hills and mountainous areas. Their stripes are narrower than the Bengal tiger..but folks OFTEN get these guys mixed up! And guess how much they weigh when they are born? TWO ounces! The mom usually has 2-4 babies and by a year and a half old, they are skilled enough hunters to say, "See ya later!"

Click on the picture to go to the Houston Zoo page ..I've linked you the page where you can click on any of the mammals and see great pictures and facts. (I spent about an hour surfing the page myself! You can also go to birds, fish, reptile pages, etc.) Enjoy!

Hey buddy,
I see you met Tripoli, pretty neat girl, isn't she? (thanks Cathy:) Cathy has so many neat pets and she also has two sons, just like me and your Mom! Her sons are Sam and Ben and they are super cute, like you and Kent, Quinn and Callum...I cannot even IMAGINE the trouble you all would get into if we could get you together!!!
I really hope you are doing ok, buddy, and we are praying for you to get into remission, and most of all for your complete healing...keep fighting and never quit! Big hugs,

My yellow nape amazon, Tripoli, thought you'd like a picture of a bird in your guestbook. She is a show off! Did you know she she sings Yankee Doodle, Saints Come Marching In, and Old Mac Donald Had A Farm? She also says 150 different things, such as (wolf whistle) "Wow! You're a ten!" Other things are "You're my baby," and "I love you" and "Whatcha doing?" and "I want outside!" She also tells me, "I want food." She also does MY laugh then says, "You're funny!" The last time I corrected her singing, she told me, "There ya go!" like SHE was teaching ME!

We are working on "Uh oh. I taste like chicken." Aren't I mean? Hee hee hee. Total, I have four birds. Tripoli, Pompeii (a severe macaw) Callao (a Half Moon Conure) and Mirage (a Congo African grey) They keep me busy! We're all thinking about you Jonathan!

Your friend Tracey in Canada told us about your site and thought you might like to see my bird. It was nice "meeting" you!

Very glad to hear that things are kinda normal and hope that trend continues for a LONG time to come...how about forever?:) Those 'strong men' sound very cool; did you kick their butts on Playstation? Quinn is quite the master but he's depressed because the video stores have sold off all their games...little does he know that Santa has agreed to bring a new PS2..heehee..shhh, it's a secret!!

We hope all is going well for you, out there in Manitoba! Wow, have you guys been getting the heat too? It was SO HOT here today, I felt like I was melting. Later in the day, a wind storm blew through and they put out a storm warning, but we somehow missed it...I wouldn't have minded a good downpour to cool things off and give my poor lawn a good soak! How is that cute brother of yours doing? I wonder if you find him to be a 'pesky little bro' sometimes, I know Quinn would agree with that statement! But he does love him lots and I know he is very happy to have a brother, they ARE kind of cool:) The boys had a very fun day today, we went to the motocross track and Quinn was able to ride his new bike for the first time....only one crash, I almost had a heart attack, but he was fine. Cal and I bombed around on his litte PW50 and he was LOVIN' it, maybe by next year he'll be ready to ride on his own:) I think I remember a photo of you boys making funny faces on a quad, so I bet you like all motorized vehicles too! I'll be sure to send some photo's on to you when I get them developed....take special care, and know we are praying for you and your complete healing.

Hi Jonathon, I just sent an e-mail to you with some graphics on it you might like. I hope you are feeling a bit better now. I hope the weather is not as hot as it is here in Idaho where I live. Right now it is near 100' and we have the air conditioner and fans going most of the time.

Hope to hear some more good news regarding your situation soon so you can have a great time the rest of the summer.

I just wanted to stop by and say hello!! I am glad to read you are getting your appetite back a little bit. I have to ask you though...what is Borscht? Must be good if your mom ran all over town trying to get some for you.

Warmly,
Susan and Jakey Bear Griffin

Hi sweetie. Ms. TracEy (she is a little picky about her name, ya know) told me that you needed people from all over the world to let you know how special you are. I'm sending you a big "HOWDY" all the way from Tennessee! We are all rooting for you and praying for God to heal your body completely. You enjoy some fun summer activities, and I'll be checking on you. Always remember that you are very loved!

Hello Jonathan and family!
We're here in Texas, wishing you a nice, sunny day. We always have fun with our birds, particularly my Yellow Nape Amazon. Tonight, she was hilarious. Skittles, the red and purple eclectus, does a wolf whistle, then Tripoli, the amazon, will dutifully reply, "WOW! You're a ten!" Well, they did it perfectly back and forth for about four times..wolf whistle, wow you're a ten. Wolf whistle, wow you're a ten....THEN Skittles messed up the whistle. It was flat and horrible. Tripoli replied, "SKITTLES! What was THAT?" I laughed so hard I cried.

So, Tripoli, Skittles and the rest of the bird gang send you a happy "hello" (yes, they can actually say it. That's EASY for them!) and hope your weekend goes well. I have a website that I am changing over to feature the birds, so if you are interested, just email me and I'll let you know when it's done. Each week, I post what Tripoli does in the newsletter. She's a character! So she's sending kisses (yes she does that too) your way.

Hi there Jonathan, I just got off the email with Jason and he told me to check out the website again. We have been sailing around and this was the first opportunity to see it. Another big trip to the states..never let it be said that Jonathan says at home. I am sure Jason will be curling this winter and will be looking for a few good men to help him out. Every time I get a chance to check out the net I always head to your site buddy. I love to see a fighter and winner. Proud to know you and your Mom. If you ever have an appointment down in Florida and want to go fishing..just let me know...I am having no luck and I need all the help I can get.....Dave Foster

Hey Jonathon:)
Just popped in to check up on you....I see you are home, yipee! And you get to have a nice warm bath (one of my personal favorites!) and go swimming, ride your bike and play golf?? Awesome! Quinn really likes to hit a bucket of balls with his Dad, I bet you guys would have a great time together:) I bet it's really great to see your brother Kent, aren't brothers great? (when they aren't being a pain!!) If you ever come to Calgary for a visit, you'll have to come see us and go on out to the driving range, just you 'guys':) That would be very cool. I hope you have a great summer, that the chemo goes well (and no nausea) and then on to the rest of the summer, yay!! We're praying for you buddy, all the time...hang in there.....

Congratulations on getting out of the hospital so quickly after your surgery. You make everything seem like a walk in the park! It must be the great attitude that you have! I am happy to hear that you are flying back home today, and will be able to enjoy spending time with your brother and friends again. I was very happy so hear that the tumor that they took out was inactive. That is also great news. We have been praying for you, and hope you have a great summer!!!

Wow, what great news, your surgery went so well and you are recovering so quickly..wonderful!! I hope you can go back to RMH very soon,it sounds like an amazing place! We continue to keep you in our thoughts and prayers Jon, and your mom, dad and brother too:)
Now, did I read something below about 'puke' jellie beans?? Can you say GROSS!! Ewwwwwwwww. Guess what? My son Quinn was in the same class this year with Morgan Parker! And I know her mommy Erin, what a coincidence, huh? When I looked through Quinn's 'journal' at the end of the year, the kids had all written 'memories of 2003' and Quinn listed all his friends from class....Morgan was one of the kids listed, isn't that sweet??
We hope you can get back home soon, honey, and enjoy a GREAT summer! Hey, is it true what they say about the mosquitoes out there?? Are they really that big? LOL
Hugs and hope,

Brenda, I think you are right. I read that it is contagious for a couple of days before the rash breaks out.

We sent out another sample of blood today for next Tuesday's HAMA testing. Cross your fingers that we are HAMA negative this time.

Have a great weekend in New Jersey. I hope it is a restful weekend for all of you!

Love,
Laurie, Jessica, and Tony Nielsen

Hi Jonathan! Sounds like your first treatment of antibodies went pretty well! Jessica is wondering if you are keeping up on the racing games, so that when she comes out again the two of you can race! Hopefully we will be out in NY in June around the time that you will be out there for your next treatment. We really enjoyed hanging out with you and your mom. Jessica is still eating Easter candy from all of those Easter egg hunts that you two did, and all of the Easter baskets.

Keep up the good work in NY and I hope today goes as well as yesterday did.

So Jonathan. I hear that your stomach doesn't like your new medicine. Oh well, accidents happen! I have a story: when I was 17, I met this boy from out of town. He started coming to our church, and he had a brand new car! We went out one night with a bunch of the kids, and I guess I had too much "punch". I couldn't open the car door fast enough. Yeah, you guessed it. Threw up all over the front seat of his car. He never called me again!. Hope everything else is okay with you. Take care.

Hi, so happy to hear the WONDERFUL news about Jonathan, you folks have endured so many emotions over the past few years. I've been thinking a lot about you and often view the website. Sometimes being busy is good for your soul, it keeps your mind off of things. Sounds like things are going well. We'll keep in touch.

Dear Brenda, Busy is a big word around our place, too and today is the first chance I've had to check the web page in a while. Now I sit at Bob's desk with tears in my eyes as I read your latest good news about Jonathan's liver. You have been through so much and you deserve to have so much happiness with your family. All the best. The kind of "busy" you have now is so good. Love Rhonda

Dear Brenda, Ken, Jonathan, and Kent, Sorry we haven't sent messages lately but we do think of you often. I guess it is true what they say that nothing worth getting is ever easy. You have all been in a long and difficult battle and we admire your courage and determination.. It is wonderful to hear that Jonathan will be receiving the bravest kid award. I think there should be a bravest family award. Keep fighting. We will be around Winnipeg quite a bit this summer so hopefully we can sneak a visit.

Howdy! Glad to hear that all is progressing well. Great news that Jonathan is getting his strength back and is wanting to get outside and play. Kelly thinks she should stop in and have coffee or "something stronger" with you in Winnipeg. Her job with census is wrapping up and she could be free next week. We'll keep praying for you and know that your permanent return home is just around the corner.

Dear Jonathan, I helped Hollie and Sara look at your website and they say they want the doctors to get finished with you so that you can play at Uncle Bill's with them. (Hollie's looking at pictures of the family reunion two years ago!) Anyways, we are all thrilled that you are feeling better. Keep up the positive attitude and remember every day that you wake up, still ready to fight, is another day that you've already won.

Great to hear that things continue to move forward. Although it may seem too slow, Jonathon is always getting better, bit by bit. Kelly has kept getting her updates from Ruth, Kate and Karen. But it is great to be able to go on the net and read your reports. Keep them coming. Hope you enjoyed a great family long weekend all together.

Hi there, it is really good to see that Jon is feeling better.It is good that he can get out of the hospital for a little bit. Hope you had a good mother's day Brenda.Kent was telling me at Sunday School about all the new clothes that he got.

Dear Watson's, We think about you so often, Brenda. It's hard sometimes to realize all that you and your family go through on a daily basis. We always seem so busy going to our kids' activities and when I stop and think of what your daily life is like, I feel very selfish. My biggest hope is that in the very near future you will be overwhelmed with the "little things" like getting to soccer practice on time and then going to swimming lessons, and a ball game and then the next thing. I think you have gone through many lifetimes of challenges in the last couple of years. You are my hero! Give Jonathan our love. Take care, Rhonda

Hi! We're hoping all is well on Day 1. We've definitely been thinking of you. A fireman came to the door the other night selling toys to be donated to the Children's Hospital and Morgan asked him if he could give the toy we bought to Jonathan - I then had to explain to Morgan that these toys go to the hospital here and to the fireman that our friend is in Wpg.! She had the thought though!! Keep smiling and keep in touch! Love, The Parkers

Hi Jonathan and family,

Glad to hear all is going well. Jonathan.........you are AMAZING. Keep on teasing those nurses. Hubert said to say hi, although I am suppose to do something with my hands and not use my mouth. That could be a challenge.

Take care. We will see you when you get home.

Your Winnipeg nurse,

Brenda has always been surrounded by many friends but it is unbelievable how many more you have made. Funny how life works sometimes, (eh!) It is so nice to know that you are surrounded by family and friends with such caring and encouragement. Like many, we wish we could be closer to support you even more, but we are following your reports and thinking of you often.

Hi! Thanks so much for taking the time to update us. I know how draining things are for all of you right now and the fact that you take time to let us know how Jonathon is doing is great. It is good to hear that he is eating!!! that is an important part of the healing process. I hope the issue with his urine stabilizes so that you can move on. Keep your chins up, and make sure you get enough rest.
Hugs to you all!!!!

But pretty soon you will be home with Kent and all your friends. Jason and I will come see you when you are feeling stronger. We miss you and love you lots! Our hearts are so full of joy for you, Ken and Brenda and think of you all everyday!! Hugs to you all and we'll see each other soon.

Hi everyone.

Well, the news is out at the clinic and everyone is very excited with how well Jon is doing. Miracles are definitely part of this season.

Jon, I talked with NO NAME, and he was wondering if you had given up pizza for macaroni. He seemed to be smiling about coming to the next clinic party to eat your share of the pizza?!?!?!?!?!

It is so cold in Winnipeg right now. I hope the weather is better there. Keep fighting and push forward. You are one of the most determined little guys I know (oops...I mean big guy). I hope you are dazzling the nurses there with your smile, your charm and your sense of humor.

Take care all of you. I miss seeing you but am glad that everything seems to be going well. Hopefully, you will be home for Christmas. If you aren't, think what a wonderful celebration will await you when you get home.

Take care little one.
Love,
Cathy Bourne

Hi Brenda, Ken and Jonathon, This was great news, I have been anxiously waiting to hear how everything went and of course Ken could not get his work computer to work at home so I finally came to my friend's place to go on her computer. You have all been in our prayer's and thoughts and we hope everything continues to go well for you there and you will be home soon. Give Jonathon a Big Hug for us. He is a brave little boy! All our love.

You're right Brenda, it is freezing here in MB! My families hearts are warmed with your great news of Jonathan. I told my mom about everything that has happened to your family and the results of Jonathans surgery and she sends her prayers and wishes to you all. You'll have to ask Vicki to explain who we all are. Keep up your strenght and draw from the support of the people who are communicating through this web site. God bless you all. Again prayers and WARM!!! wishes from us up here.

Dear Brenda, I also wish you were not so far away so that we could help with the loneliness aspect but I guess the distance that you had to go for this miracle is a small problem now that Jonathan is on the road to recovery. So many people that I had asked to pray for you all before the surgery constantly ask how Jon is and your entire family's courage has touched many lives. Thank you for your strength and persistance. I hope you are all able to be back in Manitoba soon. Merry Christmas! Love Rhonda, Bob, and kids

Delighted to hear Jonathan is feeling like eating! That's a great sign. It's a beautiful day in Manitoba today. A little warmer and very bright and sunshiney. Jonathan comes up in conversation all over town, so I know there are many people continuing to pray for his good health. Our prayers are with you too, Ken and Brenda, as you sit by his bedside. Hopefully you'll be home in a few days! Cheers!

Hi Jonathan, Brenda & Ken
We are so glad to hear that Jonathan is feeling better each day. We are hoping that you will be able to be home for Christmas but the most important thing of all is that Jonathan is doing so well. Santa will not have to check his list twice for your name Jonathan because he knows that you have been a good boy. Did you get your macaroni and weiners with ketchup yet? We hope so! Get Well Soon.

Hi guys! Sounds like Jonathan is making wonderful progress. I can't blame him about the catheter! I know if it was me, once it came out, it won't be going back in. The girls and us continue to pray for Jonathan's quick recovery, so all of you can be home for Christmas. Jonathan is incredibly strong and will be up and about before you even know it.

It has been so cold and stormy here, rain and mild would be a welcome break. If you see Regis, tell him Kelly says hi!

Uncle Shayne says get well and get your butt back here because we want to see you soon! Bored is a good sign as we've heard that complaint from you a few times. Next on your request list should be skittles. Love you all very much. Auntie Leslie and Uncle Shayne

Dear Watson's:

Karin Kilpatrick kidnapped Grandma Watson and brought her to my(Kate) house so that she could read the guestbook. So we have been enjoying coffee and catching her up to date via cyberspace. She doesn't know what to say but Karin and I think she should be sending a message. I'll see what she comes up with.

Grandma Watson: "I wish you all the best Jonathan. We love and miss you. We have just had a snow storm. The winds are picking up. Grandpa and Uncle Bob are plowing the lane. Kent is watching out the window. We hope to see you soon. Will be talking to Mom and Dad. Love Grandma Ruth. XXOO"

I think she did a wonderful job. Grandma's sometimes have a hard time adjusting to this new technology that is becoming second nature to our generation.

Greetings Jonathan, Brenda and Ken
We are filled with joy and thanksgiving at the good news, that the surgeon was so successful at removing the tumor and that Jonathan has done so well.

We continue to hold you and the medical staff in prayer. During the hours of Jonathans surgery, approximately 25 families and individuals from the congregation participated in a prayer chain, either in the church sanctuary at home or work. Our hope and prayer is that Jonathan continues to gain strength each day and that you will all be home for Christmas as planned.

Kent did an excellent job of characters he played when the Day Care made their presentation at the Seniors dinner, yesterday.

The Sunday School presents their Christmas pageant on Sunday, Dec. 17th. Kent will play the part of a sheep.

May the hope, peace, joy and love of the Christ Child surround you, guide you and strengthen you now and always. Love and blessings, Barbara Ann and Ken and your Teulon United Church family.

Kelly just told me that you had this website for keeping all of us informed on Jonathan's progress. If I had known beforehand, I would have signed in earlier. It was great to hear of the successful surgery. Sounds like God was guiding the surgeon's hands! We will continue to pray for Jonathan's quick recovery and return home. Before you know it, he will be back on the curling ice every Saturday morning, followed by his healthy feed of junk food at the concession!?! Take care of each other. We'll see you when you get back.

As you guys know, I have to stick my nose in things and see how my favorite guy is doing. I am thinking about you today. I am keeping my fingers crossed for you and hope that all goes well. Dee said to say hi and that she is thinking of you and wishing she was there to help you through.

Jonathan, I hope the nurses are being extra special to you. Try to work hard to get better. I know it is hard to get up and start to move after surgery but try your best. Think how Hubert would have you blowing bubbles, if he didn't bring his silly trick bubbles. Dawn and Hubert said to say hi to everyone in New York. Take care.

I am thinking about you my little friend. Be strong and brave.

The Silly Winnipeg nurse,

Glad to hear you all arrived in New YOrk safe and sound and you're getting a chance to do some sight seeing. We don't have the internet hooked up on our computer at home so I'm doing this at work. Since Uncle Shayne doesn't even know how to turn the computer on it doesn't really matter that I'm doing this at work. We sure wish we could be there to come and see you at the hospital after your surgery. We're thinking of you every day and we love you heaps. We're sending hugs and kisses to New YOrk for you. Yuck,kisses!

Hi Jonathan! I'll be thinking of you and your mom and dad, while you are in New York. I'll keep my fingers crossed that Kent won't be too lonely without you.

Jonathan, I want you to know what a brave and fantastic boy you are. You always amaze me. Thanks for showing me, what a good reader you are. That was one of the most special times in my job. Have mom keep a journal of all the special things that happen to you in New York, so you can tell us all about it when you go home.

Take care my little friend, and I will try to e-mail you again soon.

Your silly Winnipeg nurse,
Cathy

Now you are a big six year old playing soccer and my Kaitlin is five and going to school.

Hello to all the Watson's
Hope your cold is all over and that you can be outside and enjoy this beautiful fall weather that we are having. Do you have lots of leaves on the ground around your place? We have some big old oak trees so there were lots in our yard. I'm busy planting tulip bulbs now so that in the spring I'll have lots of pretty flowers as soon as the snow goes. Are you getting ready for Halloween? I'm getting my costume ready, and the front door decorated. It sure is great news that you have been given the green light to see the doctor in New York. The waiting is sure hard but it will be worth it. Keep up the good work you do in staying positive and happy. I'll be watching for more news . You sure are getting lots of letters from near and far places. Take Care. Diane Peters

My sister Kathie and I used to visit your place many years ago when you were just a baby. I came to the benefit social two years ago. You are a very tough kid and I know it has been very hard to go for all those treatments that you have gone for. Keep fighting......

I am going to meet your Mom, Leslie, Addy and Mary for supper in a couple of weeks and look forward to that.

Take good care
