It's January. I'm not sure when you go back to Atlanta but I am praying that you get great reports. Tell Dr. Janss & Lisa hello. Do they still have the Nemo fish downstairs? Those were fun to watch. In the other aquarium by the counter there is a red fish that hides in a rock. We used to like to watch him and try to see him to come out. Sometimes he would come out but when he saw us he would always swim back in real fast. Hope you have a safe trip.

Hi guys!! We're thrilled with the MRI results and we think of you often!! We were wondering if you would mind if we used a picture of Lauren for our Golf Tournament stuff. All the money benefits CureSearch. All the schools in Effingham County are getting involved. If you think Lauren's school would be interested, just let me know. I would be glad to get the info. to you or come by a faculty meeting and talk to the staff.

Hope you guys continue to do well!! Take care,

Hi Sweetie!
I am so sorry to hear about all of your trouble but glad you are "out of the woods" and doing better. Those infections are no fun!!! Victoria had to take those shots too for a few weeks. I know you are glad that you are done with chemo. Wow...it's been a long road, but you made it. You are a very special little girl. I hope you get to ride horses this summer and continue your therapy. It will help you to get even stronger. How is your appetite? Have you gained any weight back? I have been giving Victoria Scandishakes to help her gain weight. It is working. Tell your mom to call me and I'll tell her all about it. Victoria should be done with her treatment July 4th. We plan to have a big celebration. We will keep checking on you. Tell your dad thanks for updating your page. Just a few more days of school and then summer! I hope you get to swim alot this year.
Love,

Howdy lauren. I was so very excited talking to you on the phone this weekend and very happy that you were eating even if it was hospital food. Like I told you on the phone I got a possum in the fridedaire in the garage waiting on you to come vist. You know you would think them hospital people would cook you some good food once in a while guess you will have to get well and teach them. Your skinny aunt Deb seems to be doing a jig about you gitten better, she wouldn't let me cause the floor in her trailorhouse isn't so strong and she was afeared I would fall into the downunder and never come out. Your old fat uncle Ron is really pround of you too he seems to think you might have some coontail in you maybe he will cook you some mudbugs and make you some gumbo to go with it then you be well much more sooner we thinks. I sure do hope I get to talk to you again soon maybe next time I'll wait till after u be finish eatin so we can talk more. I'am going to try and find a picture of fred and trixie together and send them to you but if not I will send one of each of them. Fred hasn't come home yet but the fishermens tells me he's been up atthe yankee end of the lake eaten them white bass which have been running. So I know he won't be home till the buffet is over cause he sure do likes to eat mighten be why he's so big and healthy. If he gets to fat I will have to make his girt on his saddle bigger so you can ride him cause his bumpy back sure is hard on your back side.One more thing that must of been a fun day for you when that picture was taken you looked so pretty and cute like a bug on a watermelon. One thing for sure u is pretty little girl. Okay baby doll git better come c us cause we all miss you and want u to vist with us and eat good food and I think this time we might even teach ur mom some gooden ways to cook. I know Fred will be looking for you and he might even wake up if he hears your voice and go put his saddle on himself,naa he not do that he's to fat and lazy. Trixie says yip yip yip yip yapyap yap yap yap bark bark bark bark snort which I think is dog for DUH!!!I do knows she's wants to plays with you when u get here. Okay baby doll we be waiten on you to come I will be cookin and fred and trixie and aunt deb and uncle ron will be watchen out for your arrival. Hope to talk to you again soon dear KEEP UP THE GREAT JOB YOUR DOING>XXXX<

It's like waking up in a traffic jam lol. But it's really neat too. Hopefully you will get to come back to texas this summer and we can go feed the ducks and geese and fred too,then you can get a ride on fred he's to fat to be fast so it won't scare you. Well baby doll stay dry get well and come back and visit us I already have your possum in the freezer thing I caught it last nite in the garbage can,boy that was easy pickin's lol.

Howdy Lauren, Sounds like your starting to get on the rite track keep it up babydoll. Things here have been wet wet and more wet seems like all it does is rain but it's good weather if your a duck so I guess that means we are just ducky here. Saw Fred on the North end of the lake he was sunnin on a bank and wasn't going anywhere but he sure did look fat think he's been eatin real good not sure what he's eatin but it's makin him fat. Trixie is doing what she does best sleeping and pootin. I just don't understand how a little tiny dog can stink so much Phewwwweee. Well dear not much going on I did have a birthday last week seems like I had one just like it the year before but they all say it was younger last year lol. Oh yeah we ate your possum last week also so I'am going to go next weekend and see about gittin you another one I will always have one in the freeze for you when you come down. Okay dear keep gettin better and do what the doc and momma say and you will be eatin possum sooner than u think. Beee Happy and get well I'am a waitin fer u.

Things here have been busy getting ready for winter it's down in the low 90's so it's getting cold outside. Fred is fixin to go to his winter home and start getting ready I think the neighbors are glad to see that and they will probably start letting their cats back outside once he's back in the lake. I'am working on a new project in the garage and when I get it finished it would be nice to give you a ride on it. Can't say what it is it's a secert but will try to send you a picture when it's done and you can tell me what you think of it. Trixie is getting fat and lazier she's starting to look like a fuzzy basketball good thing she's not orange lol. Okay baby doll you keep gettin better and stronger so you can come visit us rite now I got a possum on the smoker and need to go check it. I will make one for you when you get here. Take care eat more and keep up the great work. Fred and Trixie both say ugh snort. until later keep it up dear.

Howdy lauren been awful busy here lately. Spent most of the last 3 weeks fixin coon and possum traps so when winter gets here we can have a BBQ I'am sure you know how good that is. I see that your loosin weight again girl ur gonna have to start piggin out some or the wind will blow you away and we don't want that. Besides you need to eat more so when you come visit us you will be able to eat all the coon and possum you can cause I know your momma's possum and coon arent that good cause your skinny aunt debbie said it was her favorite food of your moms and we all know how skinny she is and one skinny minnie is enough.So eat up get sum meat on them their bones of urs and you will feel mucho better. I know for fact that fred and trixie eat to feel better cause each time they do they take a nap and snore like little pigs. So I hope to be able to hear about your snoring soon that way I know your eatin rite. okay baby doll I's got to go unload fred out of the peekup I had to go fetch his lazy tail home he was scaring this lady's pit bull dog so bad that he wouldn't come out of the house and this womem was really ticked off at fred. Trixie say bark bark bark bark snort arf arf I'am sure you know what she means. So eat up get well and if it will help tell you mom to write me for my coon reciepe I'am sure it will make you well rounded. take care of yourself babydoll.

It's been so hot here that fred hasn't left the lake I think he wanted me to air condition his pool out back but I wasn't going to fall for that. Trixie has always says arf arf arf arf bark bark yip yip yap. I think she's happy your doing so well also. Okay baby doll keep it up and getwell so you can come see up next summer maybe and I will feed you like a queen and maybe even show your momma how to cook good food.

howdy lauren, Well I'am back from ma and pa's the weather was perfect and I only picked one peach. Seems like every coon and possum in elis county was in the back yard having a moonlight pig out. We got their on friday evening and the trees were loaded but it was late so we went to bed and got up to find empty trees. I guess I should of stayed on the back porch and shot me some of them possums and coons and just had a good old BBQ next time I will. I got home today and it had been raining the whole time we were gone fred had made a mud hole in the back yard and was buried in it just his big nose and eyes were sticking out he belched at me so I know he's okay but he's not moving for anyone except breakfeast. Took trixie to grannys house she loves it granny feeds her under the table when no one is looking I think she's going to sleep for a week cause she's way to big to even move she's such a little pig. But she loves granny,well dear the summer is in full swing so I hope you get lots of swimming time in and plenty of eating also hopefully soon you will be able to travel and I will fix you a good possum or coon it will be so good you won't eat your momma's anymore you might even want to come visit with me often just for the good food. I know you won't get much food at aunt debs cause she don't eat I'am beginning to think she lives on coffee which is probably why she has such a good tan.It's late baby doll so I'am going to bed got to get up early so I can send off those buse's to pick up the summer kids, you rember to smile,laugh,and eat alot and we will be here waiting on you to come on down.

Hi Lauren,
Baby Boy brought us a tiny little bunny a few days ago. Bobby was so mad at him for being such a good hunter. I think we are going to get a bell to go on his collar...that way all of the birds and bunnys will have a warning to run away!
We can't wait until you come back to Atlanta on June 2. I have to admit that I have eaten all of your Starburst. I still can't tell which color is which. Have you and Ryan practiced?
Angie told me that you and Kristen went swimming in Grandmama and Grandpa's pool a few days ago. Is the water getting warmer? Have you been swimming underwater? You are such a fish...whether its in the bathtub or pool or at the beach!
Bobby decided to wash the blinds today. Guess how he washed them...he put them in my bathtub, poured in Oxyclean and started the jacuzzi. It worked great! The blinds are gleaming white.
Well babe, I really need to get to bed. I think I need to call you because I have too many questions!
Love,
Aunt Pam

Not much going on here but rain, fred and trixie both like that cause they sleep all day and nite. It's hard work being an alligator or a dog around here lol. I'am very proud of you for completing your first communion that's just perfect I did my first one about a million years ago but I still rember it like it was only 1000 years ago lol. Now dear keep up the good work I see that you eating and when you go to therapy do you best and a little bit more each day and you will soon be back to your young self. Keep eating and smiling make sure you have lots of fun and keep on getting better. Fred and Trixie are snoring so they don't have much to say. Get well baby doll and come see us I know we would all love to see you. rember smile,eat,laugh and do your best always. Texas is pulling for you and you do know that their is nothing better than a texan so get well and we can make you a texan when you get here. nite nite baby doll

Bunny,
Victoria is still in the hospital. She had her shunt removed last Friday. We are waiting for the CSF cultures to come back negative so we can go home too. Right now Victoria is in ICU for 2 days to have her head pressure monitored to make sure she can leave the shunt out. She can't do anything except lie flat so she is pretty bored. She should go back to her regular room tomorrow. We'll be here at least until the end of the week and maybe longer depending on the monitor results and the cultures. I know you are enjoying being back at home and having your family together. Tell Ryan and Kevin hello.

I bet you are glad that you are staying at Aunt Pam's now, instead of at the hospital. Bobby is a good cook, right???

Happy Easter!

howdy Lauren I hope your taking care of everyone from what I see your shopping turned into an adventure. Seeing how it's adventure you like when you come to Texas have Aunt Skinny Deb to call me and I will let you go for a ride on Fred he likes giving rides.Oh in case no one told you Fred is my Alligator so you don't have to worry about being to high in the air when you ride him. He doesn't go very fast either he's just like me to fat and old to go to fast. I hope your getting much better faster than the Doctors think and you will be visiting us in the great state of texas ASAP. Rember to smile and have all the fun you can handle and get ready for the easter bunny. Yes and one more think I like Chocolate cake to so maybe I can get you to bake one when your here.

Hi Lauren,
I just saw the pictures of you and Ryan and I can't believe how big both of you have gotten! I don't think I've seen you since Ken and I brought oysters to your house after our Christmas party a few years ago. Do you remember that? We've been praying for you and the your whole family and we think that God has a very special plan for your life. Your mom told me how hard you're working to get well. Good girl!!! God knows how hard you're working because He sees everything we do and He's always there to help us when we ask Him to. I think you're a very brave young lady. Tell Ryan and your mom and dad that I said "hi" and remind them that we're praying for all of you. Since Ken and I moved, we're not to far from Atlanta, so maybe I can come visit you one day. Talk to you later!
Love,
Connie

I'am told that crazy rabbit just might pay you a little visit just don't eat to many colored eggs so you can save some room for CANDY. Have a great day and rember smile when you can and have lots of fun whereever you R. Trixie says bark bark bark bark bark I don't know what that means but she's always saying it.

If you do, you and Ryan need to bug your mom and dad into coming up to our house for a dip.....the jaccuzzi is about 95 degrees with the heater on, and it feels really good, you would love to sit it in and lay around like a princess (I know I do).

Hi, Lauren. I am Austin's mom. He is in Ryan's class. We are so excited to see how well you are doing. You are a very special young lady. I hope you find your communion dress today. Ryan's baseball team played our team last weekend. He is an awesome baseball player. Of course they beat us. We need to bring Ryan over to my mother-in-laws house. She has a refrigerator full of little bottle Coke's. Austin loves to go over there. Maybe the Easter bunny will bring some little bottle Coke's in your Easter basket! That would really be a weird thing to put in an Easter basket would'nt it? I am glad you are at your Aunt Pam's house and I know you will be home very soon. Keep getting stronger. Love and prayers to you and your entire family.

howdy again Lauren I just got this in my Email thought you might even like it I did. Good luck kiddo were all Rootin for you.

One rainy afternoon I was driving along one



of the main streets of town, taking those extra



precautions necessary when the roads are wet and



slick. Suddenly, my daughter, Aspen, spoke up from



her relaxed position in her seat. "Dad, I'm



thinking of something."



This announcement usually meant she had been



pondering some fact for a while, and was now ready



to expound all that her six-year-old mind had



discovered. I was eager to hear.



"What are you thinking?" I asked.



"The rain;" she began, "is like sin, and the



windshield wipers are like God wiping our sins



away."



After the chill bumps raced up my arms I was



able to respond.



"That's really good, Aspen."



Then my curiosity broke in. How far would



this little girl take this revelation?



So I asked... "Do you notice how the rain



keeps on coming? What does that tell you?"



Aspen didn't hesitate one moment with her



answer:



"We keep on sinning, and God just keeps on



forgiving us."



I will always remember this whenever I turn



my wipers on.

Hi Lauren,
This is from all of us here in snowy cold Alaska!! We have been thinking about you alot and going through old pictures from when we lived there. Zach says that he remembers going on the swings with you at the school fair, but I think he has seen the picture on his dresser so often that it helps him remember. We are looking forward to getting back near you guys and into some sunny weather! It snowed again here today and we will probably have snow for a while since it was 10 degrees here today and doesn't seem to be getting warmer. Good thing the easter bunny has a lot of fur or he would freeze his tail off visiting up here! Mike is flying back to North Carolina on Saturday to look for a house for us to buy in Elizabeth City. You should look it up on a map so you can see how close we will be, especially compared to where we are now. We will be able to go to Nags head beach together and I was talking to Tiffany about renting a big house so that we can all vacation at the beach together. I will ask Ellen also and see what she thinks about the idea.
Zach will be starting Kindergarten when we get to NC and Alexis will be in preschool. They are so big and fun to play with. You guys will have a blast at The Playground (is that place still open?)and the beach together. I can't wait to see how big you and Ryan are. I look at the pictures and you look like the same sweet girl I left 4 years ago, it's hard to tell how tall you are now. Alexis is about the same size Zach was when we left for Alaska and Zach is about the same size Ryan was. Zach is very much into Godzilla and Army men, and the rest of that icky boy stuff. Alexis loves Little Bear, princesses, and babies. Zach says he is dressing up like Scooby doo this year for Halloween and Alexis said she wants to be a princess. Tell me what you guys are dressing up as next time I talk to you. I love reading about what you are doing day to day it makes me feel more in touch with you and I will write again soon. By the way the new haircut suits you, it definetly shows of your eyes and smile, it is perfect! We will be thinking about you and will keep you and the rest of the family in our prayers as always. We love you,
Andrea, Mike, Zachary, Alexis and Buddy

Dear Lauren,
You don't know me, but your Aunt Angie was my Maid of Honor when I got married. I also knew your Daddy pretty well and I wish him all the very best.
I live in Germany. And have 2 little girls. They are twins! They're 5 years old. Hannah and Sophia. I love them so much just like I know your mama and daddy love you and your brother. I left Savannah to become a ballerina. Yes, you can actually be a ballerina when you grow up. I think you can become a princess too! A lady named Grace Kelly did it. In fact, I think you can become just about anything you want to be when you grow up. You just have to set your mind to it, and remember that God and your Angels will always be by your side helping you along the way. You are such a beautiful girl and your new hair cut really shows off your face. I'm praying for you, that you will get well soon and not feel too yucky on the way. And I hope to meet you next time I'm in America. Please say hello to your Mama and Daddy and tell them that I am praying for them too.
Love, Jennifer

Hi Lauren!
I have not met you in person, but have heard so much about you from many of the people who love you and miss you. I also am a friend of your Uncle Denny and Aunt Carol. I love your haircut! Just wait and see how many people cut theirs the same way---very stylish! I hope you have a great week; I know you must be happy to be at your aunt's house now. You look like you're doing great! We will keep you in our prayers!

Hi Lauren,
I am so glad to hear that you are out of the hospital. I know you are too happy about that! It looks like you are getting a ton of e-mails! You know what that means don't you? You are a very special little girl who has lots & lots of friends & family thinking about you & praying for you. How does it feel to be so important? You probably don't remember me, but my daughter Emily and Ryan used to go to SYU together, now they are in the same class at St. James.
Please let us know if you need any more goody bags sent up there to you. I bet you will never run out of slipper socks will you?Tell your mom & dad I said hello and you let them know if you want me to send you anything.Give me some ideas of what you like to play with and I will see what I can do.I am so glad you are doing so well, I can't wait to see you when you get home!
P.S. I love your haircut!!!!!
Love Lynn Sims

Hi Lauren!!! I am so glad that you were able to go to your aunts house. Those hospitals get old after a while huh? On the day that you left Scottish Rite I saw you with your mom and dad waving from the window on the fourth floor. I couldn't believe the timing. We had just brought a patient in to the ER. I was thinking of you and how you were and if you had left for your aunts and Looked up at the window and there you were. Robin was with me too. I was coming up to see you but we received a call and we had to leave. Lauren, I want you to know that I am so proud of you for working so hard. You have encouraged me. You have a great personality and you have touched the lives of all the transport members that were able to meet you ( even those that didn't meet you because we talked about you so much ). I think your new hair cut is really cute. Continue to work hard. Hang in there. Tell your mom and dad that me and the whole team say hi to all of you.I will pray for you and your family. Take care and God Bless!!!

Hi There Lauren, I'm not sure if you remember me but we saw each other at your Aunt Debbie's when you were in Texas. I am Laura's Aunt Cindy. I was sitting here reading everybody's hello's and well wishes for you. You are one Special Little Lady to have so many praying for you. Prayers are so often answered by God. It just sometimes takes a little time. God is always watching over us and is always near when we most need his comfort. Be strong and fight hard to get well. You are loved by so many and those many and more will continue to pray for you every day. Now as far as your new look, I just wanted to say you look **FABULOUS MY DEAR**. Just keep that sweet smile and I will write again very soon......Love, Cindy

Hi Lauren
I work with your Aunt Tammy,& Tasos. I am sorry to hear of your illness.I am a grandfather & have a 4 year old grandson whose name is Nathan. I will keep you in my daily prayers & have Nathan pray for you too. I am told that God listens to the prayers of the children first because they are so special in His eyes & the children with illnesses are at the very top of His list. You are a very pretty girl & you will probably grow up to be a very beautiful lady some day.You are going through some very tough times right now. I pray that you will keep trusting in God, as He has a very special plan for each & everyone of us.Please keep me & my family in your prayers.
May God bless you & your family.

Hi Everybody,
Bobby and I visited Lauren yesterday and she looked GREAT! It was such a beautiful sunny day...we were a little sneaky...Lauren had a pass to go to McDonalds across the street from the hospital. She wasn't very hungry so we hurried to throw the wheelchair in the back of the car and we took a little ride. It was the first time Lauren has ridden in a car since Feb. 13!!
We got back to the hospital and put 3 wagon loads of clothes, stuffed animals, books and boost in the car.
Lauren has made a calendar and she is placing a big red X for the days that are left before hospital discharge. Lauren will have to go to Emory every day for radiation and therapy but for the rest of day she will be FREE. (Lauren will also have time to do some schoolwork...so tell Mrs. Sego to send more workbook pages)
I am so excited that Lauren will be staying here with Pam and Bobby. We have gotten her bedroom all fixed up with all of her cards, toys, books and clothes.
Remember that the day we say 'adios' to the hospital is TUESDAY.
If any wants to call or write Lauren our phone number is 678-546-1013.
Address is: 3403 Mill Grove Terrace, Dacula, Georgia 30019
Maggie visited last weekend and Lauren had a great time showing the hospital to her good friend. They made some gorgeous spin art.
Lauren has not had much of an appetite this week. So please say a little prayer ...
Last Thursday Scottish Rite hospital named Lauren "Queen for the Day"! She received a beautiful rhinestone tiara, long satin gloves and a pink boa...she also met Miss Cowgirl USA and they took her picture. I guess there are some fun things that happen in the hospital!!
Lauren can't wait to tell everyone about all of her adventures. We have the St. James banner and we will hang it up here. Lauren really misses everyone...so write her a little note whenever you have a little time.

Hello Poody wop,
Jake told me to tell you hi. I'll be up to see you monday night. Everyone can't wait till you get back home. How are your budddies at R E M doing? How is the old man? Is Bobby still painting your toenails? How about Donna, is she swimming OK? Still biting those toe nails?
It took me 45 years to find a hero Lauren and I finally found one in you. I love you baby.. see ya tomorrow. Kiss momma for me.
With much love, Daddy

Lauren, I'm so glad that you are doing great! Your Mom and Dad are so proud of you, the same as we are. Debbie and I can't wait to see you and give you a great big hug!!!! As soon as you can, we would like for you to come back to Texas and stay for as long as you want. You can ride the tractors, mine or Debbie's, all over the ranch. You can even take Tasha for a ride too. We miss you and love you very much!!!! I'm going to give you my E mail address and you won't believe this, but I do not know how to get on line. Debbie set this up for me. I can 2 finger type, but in my office, I am set up on line but do not know how to operate it or check E mail or get on line. My secretary does it for me. Kind of crazy, huh? Take care of yourself and give your Mother and Dad a big hug from us. We love you and can't wait to see you!!!!!!!!
