Carrie & Chass, My heart is leaping with absolute joy that you all got to go to the beach. Woo Hoo!!!! I am so glad you are doing better Chass. Keep up the good work. Loren is going to camp this Sunday too, so hopefully you, and Ryan, and her can have some fun. Rest up this week so you can party hardy starting sunday! Take care and God love you both. You will conquer!!!! Susan Jewell <sjewell@egginc.com> Bristow, VA USA - Wednesday, August 9, 2006 8:26 AM CDT Carrie, I've been checking in on your daughter since I found Zach's site in Dec. I am sorry to read about the latest mass. I hope it will turn out not to be NB. I wanted to offer to do a fund-raiser for you. I am a consultant with the Pampered Chef. I have done 2 fund-raisers so far. I will donate 100% of my commission to you and you will also receive funds from PC if you decide to let me do this. Everything can be done online via my website. What I would do is type up a paragraph for you to include on your website and you can also send it to everyone you have an e-mail address for and ask that they send this to everyone they know. The money can add up quickly as this is already starting to become Christmas shopping time (hard to believe.) Anyway, I would ask that all orders get shipped directly to people making the purchases so you do not have to do one thing for this fund-raiser. (No delivering products.) Please call me or send an e-mail if you are interested. Or have a close friend give me a call on your behalf. My sister's best friend lost her son to NB. I have two little kids and it breaks my heart to hear of what famlies like yours are going through. The last thing you need is financial worry too. This is the only way I can think to help, besides donating blood and platelets. I will pray for your family. Sincerely, Gina Barnes www.pamperedchef.biz/ginabwithpc (301)570-0206 Gina Barnes <ginabarnes@comcast.net> Olney, MD - Tuesday, August 8, 2006 10:30 PM CDT Thought this verse was really comforting, especially when thinking of the hymn "I am Jesus Little Lamb." Still praying! Isa 40:11 He shall feed his flock like a shepherd: he shall gather the lambs with his arm, and carry them in his bosom, and shall gently lead those that are with young.

Shae <ShaeHeilig@Hotmail.Com> Shreveport, la usa - Tuesday, July 11, 2006 3:48 AM CDT God Bless My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family Tracey <tfindlay@billabong.com.au> Adelaide, SA Australia - Tuesday, July 11, 2006 1:28 AM CDT Hi Chassity, I was also incredibly touched by Dylan's story on TV the other night and have found your site through his. I just wanted to wish you and your family all the very best throughout this challenge. As the sister of an amazing boy who battled very agressive Non Hodgkin's Lymphoma over 6 years and won, I believe in miracles. They come in all forms, big and small, every day. By the sound of things that hot dog was "heaven sent"!! You, Dylan, my brother and all the other kids facing such a challenge should be so proud of the positive impact you've all had on so many people,those who know you personally and complete strangers!! You're all an inspiration to millions, and that's a bigger claim to fame than most rocks stars I reckon! ;) Keep smiling, you're in my prayers xxx Lucie Sydney, NSW Australia - Monday, July 10, 2006 9:29 PM CDT Hi Chassity Dylan's story, like many others, has bought me to your website. My son was diagnosed with AML at the age of 7, after intense treatment and a bone marrow transplant, he returned home well. Five months later he relapsed. He endured the horrific treatment again, including a 2nd transplant. He has been in remission for exactly 3 years and 15 days now. He never gave up and now is amazing the doctors with all that he does. Our friends little girl who lives across the road from us was diagnosed with Stage 4 neuroblastoma, she is now well and in remission and has just started kindi. So keep up the great work, you, like our children are an inspiration to us all. Sharon Bowden <bshaz@ozemail.com.au> Tamworth, NSW Australia - Monday, July 10, 2006 7:06 PM CDT Chass!!!

I've been saying every day that you ARE HEALED RIGHT NOW. Sometimes we pray"please heal ___, if its your will, God." Well, God, doesn't want that, he wants us to declare that you are healed right now, even if we can't see it yet. That's what faith is, that is what MOVES GOD. So...... "Father God, Thank you for healing our friend Chass,In the name of Jesus, we command all sickness to leave her body, we thank you that you are restoring her health right now. Thank you Jesus for returning strength to her body, and giving her hope, and faith in You. Thank you for blessing Carrie with strength, hope and faith. Thank you for giving her the best doctors and nurses to care for her. In Jesus name I pray, Amen." Chass, I believe with all my heart that I will be watching you tell people 2years from now about your miracle healing, that others will be inspired by your testimony to God's healing power. Just know that we love you and are always thinking about you. Love, Katie, Frank, Emma, and Matthew PS. Carrie call me if you feel like it.

I'm so sorry about the hip problems and the fall backward! Ouch!! A long time ago, when Brian was on treatment w/very low platelets, he took a few steps backward in our driveway and fell over Kevin's bike, hitting his head...(yup, I know you're probably saying THAT explains a lot today!). Anyway, he had a huge egg on the back of his head and we had a long day and night in the ER, so I know what a scare those things are...like you, he was lucky to escape with bumps and bruises. Us moms are another story. It takes a few more days off our lifespan. Yeesh! I hope that the beach trip is everything you want it to be, with beautiful weather and fun times - and that you all come home rested and recharged. Praying for no more drama!

That was really nice of you to share it with everyone. These days trying to get into a graduation isn't easy - and you - you were so nice to make it a public event for everyone to enjoy! I pray for you everyday. Mark is really good at keeping us updated. So you were doing manicures? Do you do toes? I'll be up that way to visit Parker and family in July - can I make an appointment? :-) Thinking of you everyday - Suzel (Parker's Aunt). Suzel Wood <suzelw@yahoo.com> Land O'Lakes, FL United States - Wednesday, May 31, 2006 4:32 PM CDT Hey Chass, I was very impressed with your academic achievement of graduating in the top 1% of your class. I myself was a right smart learner. Back in my day we didn’t settle for single digit % though, our goal was much higher. I don’t tell many people this, but I was in the top 80% to 90% in my class. I guess that they just didn’t give awards out in those days. Anyway, we enjoyed the chance to be a part of your graduation celebration. We miss not seeing you as often as we once did. If you or your Mom need anything, please give us a call because we are just right down the road.

Ray Marshall, VA USA - Thursday, March 30, 2006 11:44 AM CST Hi Chas- You are taking the two chemos that made Nick the sickest!!!! My heart aches for you having to feel so crummy! Pleae know that there is a clinical trial open up at Sloan called 8H9. It involves putting a small port under the skin in your head and the antibody is delivered directly to that area! It is very common up here and I beg you to give Dr. Kushner a call for an opinion. Maybe you wouldn't have to have the chemo ... the kids up here don't do a lot of chemo with relapse before they go right into the relapse 8H9 protocol. You were there for me encouraging and inspiring and now it is my turn to pull you up and support your battle. Please forgive me if I am crossing a boundary I shouldn't , I just couldn't sleep if I didn't tell you that there is sooo much hope with the 8H9. They even do a special mri of the lining of the skull now as normal scanning because it is so common to relapse there. Please email me and give me your thoughts. My prayers are sooo with you sweetie. Hang tough!

We don't talk much and I havn't seen you in a while but I want to come see you soon, or maybe at least talk or something. I was reading through and looks like you had a birthday...HAPPY BIRTHDAY!!

Sorry for the wisdom tooth problem....mine were all taken out when I was 15 by some sadistic Navy dentist that didn't event put me to sleep! Hope your counts come up so you can have ONE tooth taken care of - maybe you should try that "sedation dentistry" I've been hearing about on the radio.

Lisa Lisa UK - Saturday, March 4, 2006 6:21 AM CST Just Popping in to say G'day Love from Kaitlyn <ozi_gal@hotmail.com> Beverley, WA Australia - Saturday, March 4, 2006 5:33 AM CST Chass, Chass, Chass, You now understand that gaining some wisdom can be painful. It appears that you have been chosen to follow in the footsteps of brilliant people. All great thinkers have had tooth aches. Before Einstein got his wisdom teeth, he thought that the theory of relativity had something to do with how he was related to his cousins. Abraham Lincoln, Eleanor Roosevelt, and George Washington all had great teeth. In fact George's teeth were so awesome that he had them all removed and replaced with plastic teeth that looked kind of like Austin Power's teeth. He placed his smart teeth in a jar so he could share his knowledge with everyone. But as you know, there is always an exception to every rule. This may come as a shock to you, but I have actually had my wisdom teeth removed. However, even though they are gone there has been no measurable difference in my smartness. OK, all I'm trying to say here is eat your vegetables. Parker sends hugs. Tell your mom we said hello. See you soon. Mark The Fines <www.caringbridge.org/va/parker or logpark@aol.com> Warrenton, Va US - Friday, March 3, 2006 9:35 PM CST Hi Chass, I hear a lot about you from my nephew, Parker Fine and his crazy Dad, Mark. I was visiting them when Mark told us about your relapse. I am praying for you and sending hugs your way. My oldest sister, Georgia, got her Angel Wings on January 25th this year. She fought a long battle with Breast Cancer. I "chat" with her often and will ask her to watch over you. You will be in great hands with her! She's funny and a fighter - you remind me of her when I read your journal and from what Mark tells me. I noticed you are a dragonfly chick, funny, Georgia's granddaughter picked a dragonfly to remember her Grandma. Umm, lots of connection in this small world. You go, Conquer Girl, know that many are praying for you and sending you well wishes from here and up above. Lots of hugs, Suzel Suzel Wood <westiemommy@hotmail.com> Land O'Lakes, FL United States - Thursday, March 2, 2006 10:06 PM CST Hey Chass, We're thinking of you all the time - even Kevin asked about you, and you what a man of few words he is! Hey, we could've waved to you at the clinic yesterday. We were across the street talking about removing Kev's gallbladder (I am sure you were there - your 2nd home). Next time I'll give you a call to get your lunch order. ;o) Take care, and keep fighting hard.

But you are such a strong girl, you will conquer! Love to you Colleen - Kaitlyn's mum <ozi_gal@hotmail.com> Beverley, WA Australia - Thursday, February 23, 2006 2:04 AM CST Hey Girl, We just read your updated message and we wanted you to know that you are not alone in this fight. You and your mom are the strongest people that we have ever met and this is just another temporary set back. Here is how I see you. You are the chick driving the little red sports car. You just keep zipping down the highway of life with the top down and the wind in your hair. Where timid people give up in all the traffic and congestion, you simply swerve onto the shoulder and make your own way. Speed bumps are just springboards that give you a quick look around so you can get your bearings. Highway signs are placed there for the weak and confused. You know where you are going and I pity anyone who gets in your way. The authorities have heard about you but none have the ability to slow you down. While you may seem out of control to the uninformed, you always wear your seat belt. There is not much advice that someone like I could offer someone like you. But I will share, with you, something that I have kept to myself for quite some time. This bit of wisdom has been handed down from generation to generation in my family. I think that the time is finally right for me to share with you the following words to live by. Please, please no matter how tempting, DON'T EAT THE YELLOW SNOW. Parker sends hugs. See you soon. The Fines <logpark@aol.com> Warrenton, Va USA - Wednesday, February 22, 2006 10:13 PM CST Hey Chassity! I mailed a card out to you so hopefully you will get it soon. Keep your chin up girlie!

I know that you conquer this just like every other thing that has been tossed at you in the past. You attitude about life has everything to do with it. Keep your faith up and trust in god. You are always in my thoughts and prays. Carol L. Vasquez <wvcarol@sbcglobal.net> Brownsville , Texas - Wednesday, February 22, 2006 7:56 AM CST CRAP is right...and I'll second Lisa's suggestion of a whole bunch of other words.

All of you have endured more in a short time than I've had to endure in my whole life and you still manage to have a smile and to keep strong. Wow!!Thank you for being such an inspiration.

As I am the author of Nick's site I know the pressure to always let people know what is going on. When you feel like crap you just have the right to not do it sometimes! I have had several friends complain about aol and not being to get on the site. They said when they went through internet explorer it worked and that it is a security thing? You may want to try it! I am rooting for you to get back to your chipper self real soon! Waiting for results of stuff is so nerve racking! We are waiting to see if Nick's marrow has done anything yet, it was pretty bad so I am not expecting miracles, just some sign! We have got to meet soon and get to know one another.

You do not know me but I know Caryn Franca and have been following Nick and his battle against cancer. I have seen that you write to Nick and encourage him and I have visited your website many, many times but have never written. I don't know why but today I knew I finally had to. You are a truly amazing young woman. You are making a HUGE difference in helping to save lives in the fight against cancer. You reach out to all whom are impacted and you are educating those of us whom need educated. You put a face on those whom are battling and force us to look at them and see them. You have made an impact. God is definately going to see you through this because you are one of his strongest messengers. I am in Gainesville, Virginia. I believe I am close by you aren't I? Take care and thank you, thank you for the gift of knowledge and opening my heart to more people, even though I don't know them.

I am a friend of Nick Franca and his family (actually I know his Mom Caryn) and I have been following his fight against cancer from the start. I have seen how you write to encourage him and have visited your website a lot to check up on you but have never written in your guestbook. I don't really know why I've never written but today I finally am. You are quite an amazing young lady. You are an important part of this fight against cancer that is making a HUGE impact on saving lives. You educate those of us who are in need, you force us to become aware and see the faces of those who are battling. You are making a difference. I went to Caroyln's website and donated to her and her brother for their walks to raise money for the Ronald McDonald House. Thank you for all you do. I'll write sometimes too instead of just reading what you write. I'm in Gainesville. I think your close to me aren't you?

You've had *far* too much drama in your life and it's bound to be an adjustment when things are quiet! We've had a little adjustment to do as well. While we are soooo glad that Kev hasn't been transfused or gotten heavy chemo, we do miss seeing you and others at the office. We'll just have to stay in touch, right? We'll be there next Wednesday.

Glad for your little vacation from the hospital scene. That is always super news. I tried to sign your guestbook Tuesday but it wouldn't go thru for some reason. I guess you sent an IM while my hubby was on the computer. He didn't recognize who you were so he told me about it later. Sorry if you thought I was ignoring you. I would never do that. Soooo if it happens again it's probably him and not me. Keep trying though. Tell mom I said hi and I will check in soon.

We know that it has been a little one sided lately. You are one of the few people who has been leaving messages on Parker's website recently, and we appologize for not writting back to you. Just because we haven't written, doesn't mean that we haven't been keeping up on your life , however. In fact after reading everything that you have been going through, I usually have to go lay down and take a nap because I'm exhausted just thinking about it. Ok, so I'm old too. Anyway, we just wanted you to know that we are still here and we think about you daily. Tell your mom that we said hi. Parker, Mark and all of the Fine's <logpark@aol.com or www.caringbridge.org/va/parker> Warrenton, Va USA - Monday, October 3, 2005 11:11 AM CDT Glad you're home again! Nothing like your own bed to sleep in. The new protocol sounds good. When do you start? Just wanted to check in to see how you were. We have been painting and doing alot of prep work before we move so I don't get to check everyday like I usually do. Praise God for the light at the end of the tunnel. Even though it may be unknown it has to be better than the chemo!!!!!!Keep looking up. Love and blessings Diane Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Sunday, October 2, 2005 8:43 AM CDT Hello there my friend! I'm so glad you're home, have fun getting all those antibiotics in! Do you want to be a nurse when this is all done?? Ha ha. Until I see you again (hopefully not soon) take care! Kat <katrn857@yahoo.com> Bethesda, MD USA - Saturday, October 1, 2005 2:22 PM CDT Hey Chassity- Glad you are home!! You and Nick seem to be having a lot of the same challenges right now! He just won't eat a thing because of all the nausea with his fever this time. Don't know what the blood cultures will show. I noticed another 15 year old was just diagnosed. I would love to introduce myself to her. It is a rare club! I know the Plains must be gorgeous today with the blue skies and fall in the air! Nick didn't get on the Pediatric ward because it seems the entire world is getting admitted this weekend. The day clinic had 6 admits yesterday. We are on an adult floor, he is so yucky feeling he doesn't seem to mind as much as me. Anyways, get your strength back and if you know of other NB teenagers send them our way, give them my email and our caring bridge site. If there is no infection, we may be on a white count upswing and get home for Clifton Day. Hokey but a tradition he doesn't want to miss! So glad you are home!!!! Caryn Caryn Franca <carynfranca@aol.com> - Saturday, October 1, 2005 12:35 AM CDT Chass - I'm so happy to hear there is something other than this rotten chemo!

Prayers and Hugs, LeAnn LeAnn Mooneyham/Angel_Wings <angel4God352000@yahoo.com> Baxley, GA United States - Sunday, September 25, 2005 3:03 PM CDT Chassity; Hello & greetings from Ticonderoga NY. I don't know if you remember talking to me & my daughter Emily on the Corporated Angel flight we were on together. I just found out where I put your address for the page. Emily is in college. That's a weird thing. She's doing great. Hope that you're out of the hospital soon. Take Care & tell your family that the Corwin's say hello. Emily finished her CD & I will be sending it off to you. I have your home address. Pat & Bryan Cowin <pjcorwin@hotmail.com> Ticonderoga, NY USA - Sunday, September 25, 2005 7:28 AM CDT Chassity, A day doesn't go by that I don't wonder how you are and what's going on. So sorry to hear you have been having a tough time which I can't even imagine. A friend of Zach's wrote in his guestbook that bravery is facing the fear and doing what you have to do. You and Zach are shining examples of this bravery. Keep your chin up and know that we love you and are always praying. Better days are coming. Hugs and lots of caring from Illinois Diane Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Friday, September 23, 2005 10:08 AM CDT Hey Chass, Well, this is Nick's mom Caryn. I know you visit our site all the time and Nick is such a "male" about all of this. Not chatty, just doing what he needs to do. I, on the other hand am a chat queen, so I will fill his shoes and become your buddy! You are an inspiration to me as I am still in the intitial stages of shock that our perfect life of health is over. To see you doing so well really helps me out. There is a boy here at Sloan right now who is 15 and comes in every couple of weeks for some arsenic thing? He was diagnosed at 13. They actually moved here from Indiana to be close to his treatment. For now we are still navigating the protocol that will be best for Nick. That is why we are staying here. They are evaluating options. They say with teenagers they "throw out the cookbook" because each case is sooo different. Today he finishes round two, the "red devil drip" is the last to finish. Your description on our guestbook of the kitchen floor scene was our world today. He got up and threw up and was so weak he just laid on the floor of the Ronald House until I got the wheelchair in the room. The walk up here isn't so bad, it is the only outside time we get. I feel like I see the same people now most days. Anyways, my email is carynfranca@aol.com if you want to email. Just know that everytime you sign our guestbook it makes me smile. Nick will meet you someday soon. As it stands now he will get more surgery to finish up what Fairfax started in Nov. We will have 5-7 rounds of chemo and then either MIBG radiation or go right to monoconal treatments. That's what they are thinking today. They will harvest stem cells after round 3. Hope you are stronger today, you are our inspiration Chass! Much love Caryn Caryn Franca <carynfranca@aol.com> Clifton, Va usa - Thursday, September 22, 2005 9:16 AM CDT Chass, I'm so sorry to hear about your eventful day yesterday! We were there today, and it was a short visit. We keep missing each other - next week we're going to be there on Tuesday. Hang in there kiddo. I hope you don't have an awful day tomorrow. xoxo Much love, Lisa Tignor, Mom to Brian, ALL survivor and Kevin, relapsed ALL, due to go off treatment 12/05 <ltignor@comcast.net> Montclair, VA - Wednesday, September 21, 2005 10:26 PM CDT Chassity, Just checking up on you.

I know - it's been a very long time since I've signed your guestbook - but, that doesn't mean we don't think about you and pray for you and your family - because, we ARE! I'm so glad you were able to enjoy your time at the beach with NO LINE ---!! You had to have been running around and yelling I'm free - hey wait - that's Zach for the brief moment I change his claves ---- I take his bags off and he has to get up and walk to every room without being connected and then back to laying down and getting connected again - the small things that make his day!! I wish I could just tell him he's all better and he doesn't even need the line any more. I bet you guys feel the same way - I'm just having one of those days. Love you guys and praying for you! Nikki & Zach <allennl30@hotmail.com> Pekin, IL - Tuesday, September 20, 2005 11:26 AM CDT Hi Chass, I was looking at several caringbridge pages and I came across yours.

Our home is in Alabama where I had to leave my three younger children that I miss so much. I love New York and I know that Lauren does too, she just not happy with me for takeing her so far from her friends. I hope that sometime you two could meet. I admire you so much for all of your strength and courage. I think that It's great that you keep up your own web site, I can hardly get Lauren to look at her's. Keep up the good work!!! P.S.

Love, Amy Amy Carpenter <amycarp@gmail.com> - Thursday, September 15, 2005 7:15 PM CDT Hi Chass Sorry you got a slapped wrist for naming names on your site - seems silly to me, everything you write is loving and supportive, and this may sound daft but sometimes its easier to pray if you've got a name to pray about. I hope the people who told you off think about this. It's not like you're giving out their full name and address is it :) Stay strong , prayers upon prayers, Leece Lisa England - Thursday, September 15, 2005 12:49 AM CDT Hey, Chicky, Guess who this is?

So easy, and you can go swimming whenever you're not accessed! I know it is so hard losing a close friend. Carolyn had her own buddy Ryan who passed July 1.

I'm so very sorry for all that you have been going through. All you can do is "keep your chin up and trust God". It's okay to cry. Don't ever feel bad for showing your emotions. I think it takes more courage to let it out than holding it in. God will catch those tears and put his arms around you and comfort you. Well the wedding was better than we could of imagined. It was a beautiful day and everyone was dressed to the nines. Zach did an awesome job. He looked handsome and had that smile going on. I can't wait to see the pictures. Zach and Kylee stayed with us for a couple of days while the newlyweds went on a quick honeymoon. We even played Scrabble and Zach beat me good. I felt bad because he had to administer most of his meds with my help. Actually it was kind of funny because Zach "takes the bull by the horns" and takes charge. I couldn't do it quite right so he "took" over, I was just his lowly assistant!!!!!!He's sooooo funny. Listen Chass, I will be praying daily for you as always. I want to hear that the infection lost it's fight and you are the winner!!! No More fevers!! You're a sweetie and we only want the best for you. Blessings and love!!!!

I finally got around to checking out your sight! Getting to know you at camp was such a great experience, and you are one of the kindest and most honest people I have ever met. I hope some of our crafts helped distract you from some of the rougher times. :) Frances visited Michelle today... she can tell you all about it. Her visit sounded very similar to yours earlier this week. I hope to see you at Octoberfest Weekend at camp or sometime soon. Take care, I'll keep you in my thoughts and prayers everyday. Love, Aimee Aimee Armentrout <aimee_armentrout@yahoo.com> Mechanicsville, VA U.S.A. - Tuesday, August 23, 2005 6:48 PM CDT Hey girlie, It sounds like you had one heck of a time at camp!! I can't believe you got to ride a horse---I have one question--Did you or did you not hum the "Bonanza" theme to yourself? I'm humming it right now--ha--ha!! Glad to hear that you had a good week.. Love, Stephanie. Stephanie Flint Manassas, VA USA - Tuesday, August 23, 2005 7:58 AM CDT Chass!!! I love your site....the dragonflies are so perfect and so you. Good luck tokens for sure. I'm so glad that you and Michelle were able to make it out to camp. Thanks for keeping me on my toes and teaching me all kinds of new things. I think I'm going to put some of your flirting techniques to good use. ;) Perhaps gift bags are a way to a man's heart. Sending you lots of love and powerful postive forces.....Love, Joy Joy <joyous_0177@yahoo.com> - Monday, August 22, 2005 11:21 AM CDT Chassity, Wow so glad you made it to camp and had a blast!!! You definitely deserved a get-a-away. Sorry that you had bad news when you got home though. That's never easy to hear. Zach is doing quite well. He even went to church today. It's a miracle that he could get up that early even. God is soooooo good. Keep on fighting and never give up. He will see you through. Zach's even talking about going to school. How about that? Well the wedding is next weekend so this week will probably very hectic for Nikki. I know I have alot to do and I'm only the mother-of-the-bride. Hopefully I can help her as much as she needs me. Well, can't wait til you let us know about all your adventures. I'll be checking. Have a great week back with the family and chat later. Zach's gramma Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Sunday, August 21, 2005 1:44 PM CDT Hello, my fellow camp gossip queen! I told you I'd visit your page! I had such a blast with you at camp, I'm so glad you came and I hope I'll see you again soon! I have some great pictures to send you...especially of our "gift" to Dr. Chris!

Whatever you do, don't come home w/ mono or we'll all know what you've been doing. I know - you're not there to meet boys but it would be fun anyway! Of course Ry would have to approve. We're at Duke - already quite eventful - Ry has had temps all night up to 102.2 and holding steady at 99.8. I haven't paged Dr. Martin b/c we don't want to go to the hospital tonight. I have wet rags all over Ry's body. It's 4:40 am and I've been up all night. Oh well - one night of no sleep won't kill me. Can't wait to see you when you get back. Love, Lori Lori - Tuesday, August 16, 2005 3:38 AM CDT Just checking to see if you made it to camp. So glad to hear you did. Great news!!!! Can't wait to hear about all the fun you are having.

I hope things are getting better and you are still able to go to camp. Hopefully the weather will cooperate too. I'm not a lover of hot humid weather, but I guess we don't have much choice for a while anyway. We also have a drought here. We have a new house going up next to us and they had an inground pool put in last week. Now it has water in it and looks so inviting. Oh well I don't know how to swim anyway. Well I guess I will sign off but I'll be thinking about you and as always praying. Have a great trip and enjoy. Blessings, Diane Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Wednesday, August 10, 2005 8:57 PM CDT Well shoot, it was just as I had thought. You were there all day yesterday. We were there today, and guess what?? There was hardly anybody around! We'll see what tomorrow brings. You'll probably have your platelets before Kev, just like old times. I hope you're feeling better by the time we see you. xoxo Lisa Tignor, Mom to Brian, ALL survivor and Kevin, relapsed ALL, due to go off treatment 12/05 <ltignor@comcast.net> Montclair, VA - Tuesday, August 9, 2005 8:12 PM CDT Chass, Although I'd like to think you were out all day doing something FUN like shopping, I'm afraid the lack of an update means you were at the clinic getting blood & platelets again...I hope you at least had a good weekend and behaved yourself (leave that toe alone!). Anyway, we're there tomorrow. If you're not, we'll probably see you on Friday. Hugs, Lisa Tignor, mom to Brian and Kevin <ltignor@comcast.net> Montclair, VA - Monday, August 8, 2005 8:20 PM CDT Chassity, What great news! Your attitude gives all of us strength.

I'm glad you're getting into the Harry Potter books. They're fabulous, you can lose yourself in them, especially the later books 5 and 6...don't be tempted to read them out of sequence though because the plot gets quite thick! Hope you continue to be well, Love leece Lisa Burt <lisa.burt@tiscali.co.uk> Isle of Wight England - Thursday, August 4, 2005 5:35 AM CDT So thankful that you are NED!

You could look at this all in many different ways, but you have chosen the best. You are in my heart and in my prayers. Debra Smith <smithd@cfsnemi.org> Presque Isle, MI USA - Tuesday, August 2, 2005 10:29 AM CDT Hey Chassity, Wondering how you are doing? Sure hope you are busy having fun! Is it as hot there as it is here? Makes it tough to go outside and enjoy the fresh air when it is so humid. Oh well wont be long before winter sets in.lol The St Jude runners left for Memphis today. They run from Memphis back to Peoria raising money for the kids. I cant imagine running or walking that far especially in the heat!!!!!! All of the runners must be very special people to undertake such a task. I realize it doesnt even compare what you kids go through and I'm sure that's how they look at it. Zach was at there send off at 7:00 am and then went to get some fluids at St Jude. I plan to go over later.Keep on smiling and be positive as I know you are. Youre a tough cookie and a very special young lady as is you're mom. Blessings from Illinois Diane Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Tuesday, August 2, 2005 10:20 AM CDT Hi Chass, We had a visit from Destiny's child at the Ronald McDonald House in New York too!

Good Luck "baby girl". just kidding :) Love you chass and tell your mom I said hi:) I missed your visit to the hospital because I've been out of town, away from work:) so I miss your sarcasm and smiling face!!! love Cristi Cristi Lewellen <clewelle@yahoo.com> Woodbridge, VA USA - Sunday, July 31, 2005 12:41 AM CDT Hello Miss Chassity, First of all, the thinning of my hair has nothing to do with my ageing, it has only to do with the vast amount of knowledge that I have stuffed into my noggon. There isn't room for both hair and useless information at the same time and unfortunatly my hair loses. Even though we haven't written, we have been keeping up with your progress. We are glad that you are got sprung from Club Fairfax again. We are praying that all of the results from all of your scans are just as you hope they will be. Parker wants you to say hi to Foxxy Cleopatra when you meet her. He doesn't really know any of Destiny's Child's music, but he loves the Austin Powers movies. Beyonce plays the character Foxxy Cleopatra in the Goldmember movie, which is Parker's favorite of the three. Have a great time and we will see you soon.

What beach were you going to?? I ask because right now we are in Ocean City, courtesy of Believe in Tomorrow. If you're not yet signed up, you HAVE to do that. They have an awesome condo & everyone is so nice. Hopefully you can get out of there soon and do something fun. We're thinking of you (note that even while on vacation, and with nothing but dial-up, I had to check in on you!). Much love, Lisa Tignor, mom to Brian & Kevin <ltignor@comcast.net> Montclair, VA - Monday, July 25, 2005 3:10 PM CDT Chassity, In the big house huh? Not quite the same thing as the beach but don't give up the beach is waiting for you. So you're emotional and cranky, I guess that goes along with all the meds and such. Zach goes from cranky to tired to emotional, and when he feels his best he has to be doing something!!!I spent last night with them. Yesterday(Friday) was an awesome day. It was the first day I have seen him so active and not napping. In fact, he didn't fall asleep from 10am to 11:30pm. He was wide awake and we even went and seen "The Island" with us. I'll be praying for your infection to disappear quickly and that you will be back in your own bed in record time. With God ALL things are possible. Love and many blessings Diane Allen <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Saturday, July 23, 2005 6:49 PM CDT Chassity, Hi there!! Sorry to her your beach day is off and that you had to go to the Doctor!!!

WHAT AN AWESOME WEBSITE!! I LOVE the dragonflys!! I've read thru some of your journal and look forward to more time available so I can read more. What an incredibly strength and determination you have ... I see quite the "vibrancy" in those eyes! You think that's a common trait with NB kids?!?!? (Think we should start our own research study on it?? smile!) Just wanted to say thank you so much for signing Emma Grace's website so I could find you!! What a beauty you are -- inside and out.

Good luck with you tests. We know you can do it!!!! Kathy <kolson@tznet.com> WI - Thursday, July 21, 2005 2:20 PM CDT Sorry to hear your plans were greatly altered!!!! I'm sure your friend understands and just enjoys spending time with you. Zach's friend Chris passed up a trip to Six Flags to stay with Zach. How special to have such good friends. Zach had an extra good evening. It seems to come and go. How frustrating for you both to not be able to have anything planned. I guess that's why Zach takes advantage of every good minute he has no matter what time of day or night!!!!!! Good thing Walmart is open 24-7.LOL Praying that this is just a very small interruption in your summer.No more sore toes and fevers allowed!!!!!!Diane Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Thursday, July 21, 2005 11:18 AM CDT Hi Chassity! Just finished "chatting with your mom". Wanted to tell you to have a great time at the beach. Don't get overheated and drink lots of fluids. I bet your mom said the same thing. I'm gonna take a shower and head back to Zach's. Have an awesome day and even better weekend. Praying for great results from your scans when you get them. Love from Illinois Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Tuesday, July 19, 2005 11:47 AM CDT Chassity, Hi there!! Glad to hear that you did well this week!!!

Sounds like you're chipper as ever. I actually stayed home last night in my own bed. Zach is doing quite well. Nikki says he's getting used to the pain meds so he isn't sleeping as much. He is always wanting to be on some sort of "mission". Shopping, riding his go-cart, or just hugging everyone. Today we're having a cookout so pray that Zach eats something. He asks for certain stuff to eat but eats a bite and he's done. Hopefully today will be different. I'm gonna cook green beans and bacon from out of our garden. It used to be a favorite so I'm gonna try getting him to try some. Chassity, you are such a sweet and thoughtful young lady. I am so glad I got to know you and that we are "friends". Have a great weekend and keep on smiling.

I know its been rough on Zach and Nikki and the family. My daughter spent the day with Zach today and they had a good time with him.

That is no fun at all. Hopefully you will get to go home soon, but if you are still being held hostage on Friday night, I'll be there. :) Take care and don't cause too much trouble! Chelse Sanborn <chelse_sanborn@yahoo.com> - Thursday, June 23, 2005 9:33 AM CDT Chass, What are you doing?????? Painting the bathroom. You need to pace yourself. You need to be resting up for more important things like, TV, Manicures, shopping, going out to eat, and talking on the phone. Conserve your energy for THOSE things. That's what is important in life, sheeesh. You must have forgot that. Anyway, I'm sorry that you're at Club Fairfax, but I know that you will be out of there in a jiffy. It's been sooo long since we've seen you, our schedules are all messed up. Matthew and Emma send you hugs.

There's no need to get a fever and go to the hospital. I know your mom. She would have given you a short coffee break to rest up. Now you have an ingrown toenail. I have to give you an A for originality on this one and you also get extra credit for the infection. You are an artist in a class all by yourself. By any chance have you been wearing a pair of flip flops that Brett's mom, (Pam)?, made? If so, tell her that the toxic materials that she used in the manufacturing of her product has caused your ingrown toenail and you demand your money back. All kidding aside, take care of yourself. We think about you and pray for you everyday. Say hi to mom.

I miss you since you've left the hospital, my beautiful buddy. (baby girl :)hahahaha. anyway, it's always good to see you at the hospital when you aren't sick. So I decided I might superglue my neuroblastoma magnet so no one steals it from my car! Who does that? Well I love you Chass, and come visit me more at the hospital.....but I am sure you have better things to do like cause some DRAMA at the office :) Love you!!!! Cristi Cristi Lewellen <clewelle@yahoo.com> Lake Ridge, VA USA - Sunday, June 19, 2005 4:43 PM CDT Chassity, I hate to hear when you have such a tough time. Hopefully today is a good day and you can enjoy just being a teenager. Zach isn't feeling the greatest today and is quite the cranky guy. I love him anyway. I figure he has the right to get cranky, just wish he felt better. Our whole family is coming out to celebrate Father's Day a day early. We are having chicken and all the trimmings. Not sure what they are though. Everyone brings a dish so it will be a surprise. Too bad you don't live closer or we'd invite you.

I do have some good news that will cheer you up. Anthony had his doctor appointment yesterday and they could not find any cancer cells in the periphial blood. They don't know if it is in bone marrow (we won't have a biopsy for another 3 weeks), but there is none in the blood. God is so GOOD! I hope this cheers you up! I know it did all of us! You are such an awesome person, we still hope that someday we get to meet you! Take care and stay strong.

I loved the poem Mark wrote for you. I'm glad you got that misbehaving gallbladder out. I too was sore in the belly button after mine was removed. Also, the stitches they used for me felt like fishing line and i had one that was poking up just the tinyest bit, and matthew kept fooling with it, youch. Just some advice, after having your gallbladder out, you have to sometimes run to the bathroom a little faster. love, Katie katie Lozada <katielozada@adelphia.net> - Friday, June 10, 2005 7:06 AM CDT Chassity, Just checking to see how things are going since your surgery.

Sure hope they get everything taken care of so you can eat what you want without the pain. You are always in my prayers. Zach had a good time on his camping trip. We got home just in time to go to the camp grounds & eat and hang out. The weather started out rainy but cool. Before the day was over it actually turned out nice. Zach's tent is way cool and you should see the mattress he has to sleep on. It looked very compfy. I have lots of stuff to do to catch up since I've been gone so tata. Blessings to you all!!!!

I had mine out last summer and to be free of that pain was WONDERFUL!! The pain from a gallbladder attack is the worst pain ever-even childbirth. So think about it this way--when you have kids, you will be like, "hey, this aint nothing! Let me tell you about gallbladder attacks!" Whatever diet they give you, stick to it like glue!! It will help and after the surgery you can go back to normal in a few weeks. It's worth it. Lots of love sweetie and get well!!

Luz and Isabel www.isabelcoupland.com Luz Hilliard, OH USA - Monday, May 23, 2005 11:36 AM CDT Hey Chassity, Got back last night from the cruise. Boy was that an experience. Zach started out kinda slow but each day got better til he was pushing his own wheelchair. LOL I'm sure Nikki will be updating his site asap. Lots of stuff to do now that we are back. We met a young boy from Richmond with a brain tumor (recently diagnosed) He was on his Make a Wish trip. I ask to see if he knew you but they hadn't met too many people yet. I forget his name though. So how are you doing? Sounds like you have been having a rough time. I hate to hear that, but I hope this finds you in the pink. Gotta go. Now I'm going on a fishing trip with my hubby. Thrills!!!!!!! Blessings to you Diane Diane <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Monday, May 23, 2005 6:30 AM CDT Hey Gurlie~~ I just stopped by to see how everything is going! Sounds like you are doing okay!

Pam Sturgill / The Prayer Bears <psturgill@bellsouth.net> - Saturday, May 21, 2005 9:05 AM CDT Chassity You should ask your doctors about puttin an insuflon in your leg for your shots... it last's a week, and it saves having to have a needle every day, instead you put the needle into the insuflon which is already inserted under your skin. Not all hospital's use them, but they were a godsend for Kaitlyn. Love Colleen - Kaitlyn's mum www.caringbridge.org/ne/kaitlyn Colleen <ozi_gal@hotmail.com> Beverley, WA Australia - Saturday, May 21, 2005 4:14 AM CDT Hi Chassity, I have been in the hospital myself for the last few days, so could not check on you. But am back at home now, and just wanted to drop you a line and let you know that I am praying for you. That is a real bummer about you not being able to get platelets yesterday. I used to donate blood every chance I got until I was diagnosed with cancer myself in 04. I always liked to think that if I were ever in need, that someone would be willing to donate for me. Am praying that you will have a good weekend!

It might help her to know that she is not the only one going through all of this. She is having some complications after transplant that can happen, but she is still chugging along. Glad you are doing well--hope those stem cells behave when they return to you! Go counts go! Tracy Follansbee South Deerfield, MA USA - Monday, May 16, 2005 8:22 PM CDT Chassity, Sending you warm thoughts today. And alway. Hope you have a great week.

Pam Sturgill /prayer bears <psturgill@bellsouth.net> Eolia, Ky, - Sunday, May 15, 2005 9:22 AM CDT Dear Chassity, I found your website through Alyssa Lewellen's site, so this is my first time to visit you. I don't think you are a baby at all to need morphine for an ear ache... that is one of the most painful things I can think of. I am a cancer survivor myself... I was diagnosed in April 04 with kidney cancer (renal cell carcinoma), Stage 1, Grade 1, which is the very earliest stage of RCC. They took out about half of my right kidney, and as of the most recent scans in April 05, I am still disease free. Here's hoping that you soon have your cancer on the run, and that you kick cancer's butt! Hugs and prayers, Sharon / The Prayer Bears <thronberrys@bellsouth.net> Memphis, TN USA - Sunday, May 15, 2005 7:13 AM CDT Just dropping by to say "Hello" and see how you are doing! I think you have endured enough pain and suffering as well as my other good friend (Alyssa). Hopefully the road to recovery is just around the corner. Keep smiling..., it makes people wander what you are up to. :-) Tammy & Logan Ripp <ttkal86@bwsys.net> Peoria, IL USA - Saturday, May 14, 2005 11:16 PM CDT Hey Chass--Have to agree, you are one of the bravest people I've ever known!! We pray for and think of you often! We were looking at pictures the other day (one of the water balloon fights on Henry Ct.). It's hard to believe all of you are so grown up now! Hope to see/talk to you soon! Love, Linda, Matt, Eddie, and Christopher (and Fred & Ginger, too) Linda Livingston Wendle <lindaliv@comcast.net> - Saturday, May 14, 2005 8:22 PM CDT Chassity, First of all, you are far from a baby!!!!! You are a very courageous & brave & beautiful young lady. I know you are strong. Its okay to cry & scream and it doesnt mean you are any less of a person. You just keep on being strong and positive, and if you feel like crying do it!!! I kinda sound like a counselor but I'm not. I just know what Zach goes through and it's hard to even comprehend handling it day to day. So you deserve a lot of praise for your strength and you have a wonderful attitude too. Well, we only have 4 more days til we leave for our cruise. I hope Zach is up to it. He says he is, but by looking at him & seeing what he is enduring, I can't imagine. Tata & lots of love & prayers, Diane Zach's gramma <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Saturday, May 14, 2005 1:51 PM CDT Sending our Love, thoughts, and prayers your way!!

You could teach them a thing of two!!!!!Hope you don't have any headaches this weekend and that you can enjoy the great outdoors, maybe even shopping!! Zach's week has been a real roller coaster ride, but he don't complain. (gets grouchy though) Who can blame him? Between meds, pain, & just frustration with it all I'd say he has the right to be grouchy as do you. But keep on smiling, it will take you a long way and make you feel better.

They banned us to a room until they were positive that Parker did not have Chicken Pox. By the time we we were finished and free to visit with everyone, Parker wanted lunch. So I guess we'll talk next time. Oh yea, I also want to know what happened to all of your links to the other kids sites. I used to go to your site and then I was able to check on everyone else while I was there. Now you are making it hard on an old man. Some of us don't have your computer skills and we relied on you to help us out. I guess I'll just have to find another way. Take Care, Mark, Parker and all of the Fines Parker, Mark and all of the Fines <Logpark@aol.com> Warrenton, Va USA - Tuesday, March 22, 2005 7:54 AM CST Hello to you Chassity from Minnesota, I am finally back on line and able to write to all. My computer crashed, we ordered a new one , waited for it to arrive, then we couldn't connect to the internet so a repair man came and replaced some box for the wireless internet so everything is now cool. My husband and I then went on vacation to Arizona and just got home on Sat. 3/19 at 4:30 am. I still am so tired. We had our Harley Davidson motorcycle put on a semi along with 17 other bikes and they were trucked to Arizona . We flew into Phoenix on Fri. 3/11 took a schuttle from the airport to the hotel and there were the bikes. We road 1300 mi. all over the state. What beautiful scenery. So now that I'm home it took me awhile to read all of the updating.Just want you to know that you were not forgotten in any way. Lots of prayers and warm thoughts are sent your way every day. Keep smiling!!!:) Rhonda Drysdale Rhonda <RHO_DRY@msn.com> Lake Crystal, Mn - Sunday, March 20, 2005 8:12 PM CST Chassity, We're still in Memphis at RMH. We had a nice lunch brought in from an area church which was really good. I guess that's about all the fun we will have today, unless we venture out on the town. Hope your weekend is going grand and you are able to enjoy it. Always thinking about you and of course praying. Tomorrow will be the day to see if they will put in a line. There's only 2 choices and neither one sounds like a great one. I know that everything will work out, it's the waiting which I'm sure you know exactly how we feel. I wish I had $l.00 for every minute we just sit and wait. Wow would we be rich. Actually I already am rich in family and friends and so grateful. Tell your mom that we think about her too and would like to someday meet your family.

Zach's planning a pary when he get's back - maybe somehow you can come on over . . . I just think it would be neat for Zach to have a friend that is having to make the same kind of decisions and at the same age. You guys already have to go thru the whole teenage thing and on top of it dealing with something else that is out of your control. We are always praying for you!

I can fully understand your struggles with homework. I ahve to complete a full year in about 4 months so I can completely relate! I can also relate to your bruising with your shots. I have had to be treated for 3 blood clots in the past year and I was on blood thinner shots (Lovenox) for what seems like forever. My stomach got all bruised up and I am so happy I am done with those! Like always you are in my daily thoughts and prayers!

Robin Ford <mrford@hickorytech.net> Mankato, MN USA - Wednesday, March 2, 2005 9:28 AM CST Hey Chassity, We have been secretly keeping up with your journals, we just haven't written to you in a while. We missed you at the doctor's office on Monday. Nurse Mary is back from New Mexico for a couple of weeks and it was nice catching up with her. I hear that you got to see David on TV too. Parker had a snow day from school and he camped out in front of the TV all morning waiting to see David. He was blown away when Kiss came out on stage. Parker wants to hear all about meeting the band and he wants to see Davids new guitar. We are getting ready to go to Disney World for Parker's Make a Wish trip. We want to add you to Parker's list of post card recipients, but we need your home address. If you feel up to it, you can e-mail us your info at Logpark@aol.com. We hope you get to leave the hospital today and finally sleep in your own bed again. Tell your mom that we said hi, and take care. Love, Parker, Mark and all of the Fines Parker, Mark and all of the Fines <Logpark@aol.com> Warrenton, Va. USA - Wednesday, March 2, 2005 8:15 AM CST Hey Chassity! I hope you are able to get out of there soon. Be careful with Vanco. That med is one of the reasons I developed C-diff for 3 months!!! Reading your guestbook I just realized that I live about 10 min. away from Zach Allen. Isn't that funny? I would've thought we would have at least crossed paths at the Children's Hospital, but I've never met him before. I am thinking and praying for you always!

So here I am again just sending good and happy dreams. Know that I have you in my prayers and keep smiling. So sorry to hear about your friend, and also that you are in the Big House sleeping. They know what's best so hang in there and give em a hard time so they'll have to send you home!!!! I was really surprised that Zach signed your guestbook. You should feel very priviledged because he doesn't like to for just anybody. He has a hard time thinking of something to say. Well sweet dreams and get well from Illinois!!!! Zach's gramma <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Monday, February 28, 2005 10:34 PM CST Hi Chassity, Wishing you well from snowy Wisconsin...I hope everything goes well for you and you are back home again soon.

Shane got Red-mans once from Vanco also. It was really nasty. He swelled up, turned unbelievably red, and had a rash all over. Just one time though so it wasn't too bad. Get well quick and get out of there. Take care!! Cathy Rezmer (Shane's mom) <cjrezmer@yahoo.com> Bay City, MI USA - Sunday, February 27, 2005 6:50 PM CST Hey Chass, I guess it's my fault that you are in the hospital right???After all, I was the one who did draw those blood cultures:) I am soooo sorry to hear that you had to be admitted. Now, where are these fevers coming from on top of this line infection? Are your counts still low too? Well, anyway, I am sorry that I won't be able to see you at the office tomorrow, but I will see you soon I am sure. Let me know how you are doing when you get a second....Love you tons..... Kelly <kellylaura00@hotmail.com> Ashburn, Va - Sunday, February 27, 2005 4:22 PM CST Chass, hey, what happened? You just had to go and get admitted. Now, we wont' be able to see you tomorrow. just joking.!!!!!I'm sorry, you got admitted, they always want to take every percaution, you know them. Did they say what type of bacteria you were growing (gram rod pos, gram rod neg) I guess you had to break in those new lines at some point. I hope it turns out to be something mild and not a big time line infection. I remember when Matthew got vancamycin the last time, he got redmans also. He never had a reaction the other times he got vanc just that time. Boy, am I full of positive encouragement today, sorry. I know that you will be home really soon and feeling even better than ever. I'll miss seeing you at the office tomorrow, I wanted you to tell me about the elevator dream that we got to be in. Tell your mom I said Hi and hug Charawn for us too. love ya, Katie and Matthew katie lozada <katieandfrank@msn.com> spotsylvania, va - Sunday, February 27, 2005 4:08 PM CST Hi Chassity, I'm glad to hear that things are looking up.

Robin Ford <mrford@hickorytech.net> Mankato, MN USA - Friday, February 25, 2005 11:27 PM CST Hello Chassity ~ Just checking in to see how you are doing. I hope all the blood products that you got today give you a good boost for the weekend. Take care!! Cathy Rezmer <cjrezmer@yahoo.com> Bay City, MI USA - Friday, February 25, 2005 8:16 PM CST HI Chassity! Just wanted to check up to see how you are doing. I am glad you didn't have to be admitted. I have about the same fate as you when admitted (staying for days at a time) but I have to stay weeks at a time. I know about the Magnesium Oxide. I take it too. It's a very chalky pill and breaks really easily. Believe it or not it has been proven to help you memorize things. They give it a lot to Altheizmers patients. I have been having a stressful week myself. I had to have an EEG yesterday (probably my 10th in the last 3 months) and the dr.'s office got my biopsy results back and I am guessing the results are not good because they want me to get more blood drawn. I also found out that my friend Katie doesn't have much time left so please keep her in your prayers! God Bless and LIVESTRONG! Alyssa Lewellen www.thestatus.com ID: Lewellen password: beauty-kansas Alyssa Lewellen <Aballerina5678@aol.com> Peoria, IL - Friday, February 25, 2005 2:15 PM CST Hey Chass, Sorry you had such a stinky day. You are so strong and courageous. Today will definitely be a better day, you are gonna start to feel better. Your body will recover, and then you'll be helping me chase Matthew around the office. We'll be there on Monday for a few hours. We will put in some extra prayer time for you the next few days. love, your pal, katie Katie <katieandfrank@msn.com> Spotsylvania, va - Friday, February 25, 2005 9:40 AM CST Hey Chass, I'm sorry you have to go back today, and I hope that you aren't admitted for the weekend - that would stink! Kev takes Magnesium also, and he doesn't much like it either. Maybe we'll see you on Monday. Take care, xoxo Lisa Tignor <ltignor@comcast.net> Montclair, VA - Friday, February 25, 2005 8:26 AM CST Hey Chass, I am sooo sorry that you had a tough day!!

I just wanted to let you know that you continue to remain in my daily thoughts and prayers.

Please keep me in your prayers Wed. and Thur...... Wed. i have to go to the doctor to find out the results to my stomach biopsy and see what she wants to do about these 5 ulcers, and Thu. I have to have yet another EEG and physical therapy! Double YUCK! Like I said before I will continue to keep you in my thoughts and prayers!

See ya next Monday, hopefully I'll talk to ya online. love, Katie katie lozada, Matthew's Page <katieandfrank@msn.com> Spotsylvania, va - Monday, February 21, 2005 3:16 PM CST Chassity ~ I see that you know of Shane's site. Wow, do you remind me a lot of him. All the peeing (while complaining), the fighting Benadryl, the cravings (his was dill pickles)..... but also, and most important, your strength and your sense of humor.

Cathy Rezmer <cjrezmer@yahoo.com> Bay City, MI USA - Sunday, February 20, 2005 5:55 AM CST Chassity, Whenever you don't update I wonder if your not feeling the best or maybe you're so good that you're busy shopping or something 16 yr olds like to do.

Zach and Kylee stayed Friday night and then spent Sunday with us. Zach had a Sweetheart dance on Friday at school, so we dropped him off. It doesn't seem like he should be dancing with girls yet!!!! I guess he's growing to be a young man. I'm sure your mom has a hard time believing how fast you have turned into a young lady. Well, I have to go and get my grandson Chase who is 3 years old. He's going to stay all week with us while his mom is out of town training for a new job. I hope I have the needed energy!!!!!

Vasquez <wvcarol@sbcglobal.net> Brownsville , TX USA - Wednesday, February 9, 2005 8:28 AM CST My pal, here's your b-day poem Ode to Chassity Many of you know my pal, Chass Boy, is she a pain in the _ss. With strength and courage she inspires us all. Chassity keeps us laughing from the parents, to the nurses, to the doctor on call. She loves to say "whatever" and "buh bye" No one will ever say that our girl Chassity is shy. Her personality and attitude are the best, Even when she tries to act like a pest. She's so fun to be around, A more sweet and caring person can not be found. So, Happy Birthday, my pal, you're sweet sixteen. You'll always be our favorite Ped Oncology Queen. love ya and hope you have a fantastic birthday at home Katie Matthew's Page <katieandfrank@msn.com> spotsylvania, va - Wednesday, February 9, 2005 7:43 AM CST HAPPY SWEET 16!!!!!!!

I'm glad you're finally starting to feel better. I know this weekend was miserable. I'm sorry I didn't get to hang out while I was at the hospital, but Friday I knew you needed privacy, and Saturday I was on a side with a ton of cooties and didn't want to get you sicker.

My nephew's name is Cameron and he's 4 yrs old and like you he has this UGLY diease at stage 4 too !! He also went to NYC as well as the same Doctor and hospital.. Wow what a small world ! they live in Yukon,Oklahoma. He is in Fort Worth,Texas at Cooks Childrens Hospital right now having his 2nd round of stem cells. I dont get to see him as often as I would like, but I go when I can, actually I just got back from there a few weeks ago. My heart goes out to YOU and your FAMILY, may God continue to strengthen and heal you and wrap his loving arms around you as well to carry you through the rest of the hard times there may be ahead of you... Take Care and God bless you and your family. your friend in Christ, Terri Terri Eligh <elighterri@excite.com> Searcy, Ark. USA - Monday, February 7, 2005 5:55 PM CST Chass, Hi my pal. C- Diff is such a bummer. Matthew had it last year at this same time. Everyone was afraid of his poop, like it was gonna spread like wildfire or something. Anyway, I'm glad they found out you had it so they could treat it. I'd be curious to find out which Dr tested you for it, I think sometimes they miss it. I have a special birthday message for you, but I'll save it for Wednesday. I miss talking to you and know that you will be out of there soon. Love, Katie katie lozada, Matthew's Page <katieandfrank@msn.com> Spotsylvania, va - Sunday, February 6, 2005 3:58 PM CST Chassity, Hope you're doing better and able to eat soon. I hate to hear that you are so miserable. We've been praying that you will be up and about feeling great soon if you're not already. Yesterday Zach had a field trip to perform with his class at a church here. They play the chimes. It's very enjoyable to listen to. At the school he goes to it is a requirement in 7th and 8th grade to play the chimes. I think he enjoys it but I know he would rather play basketball. Keep your chin up and this all will pass. You have alot of friends and a super mom so you are truly blessed. It takes love and support to the whole family to get through and you definitely have that. Check in soon. Take care and don't give the nurses too hard of a time!!!! Diane Allen <www.Agrammaof7@aol> - Friday, February 4, 2005 9:41 AM CST Hi sweetie. I sure hope you feel much better soon.

Maybe he is growing up. He wanted you to know that he didn't get to miss a day of school last week because it was a holiday. He has a doctor's appointment this Monday but it is a teacher work day and he will not be missing any school this week either. Bummer. Grandpa and Parker will be going to the doctor's office without me this time, because I have a court date. It's a cop thing. I haven't finished the journal for your book yet, but I will try to have it ready by the next time I see you. Parker has a joke for you. What do bees wear in the rain? Yellow Jackets!

My son, Anthony, who is 7, has been diagnosed with ALL-PH+. We are trying to get him in full remission and find a bone marrow doner so he can get a transplant. He is doing pretty well. We are going in for another round of Chemo the day after Christmas. I am glad you are getting such wonderful gifts. The RMH is a wonderful place. We stay there when Anthony has his treatments. There are amazing people that volunteer their time for us to be able have somewhat of normal life when we are there. Anthony really likes the teen playroom, with the PS2 and dome hockey. I will visit your site often and may God watch over you and your family. I have found, when you really need someone, God is the one who is always there. God Bless you and Merry Christmas!! Robin Ford <mrford@hickorytech.net> Mankato, MN USA - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 10:59 PM CST Chass, That stinks that your line has to be pulled. are you getting a Pic line in the mean time? I agree with you about the line VS. the port. I think a port is ok IF you don't have to be accessed alot. Matthew is only accessed 1 or 2 times a month so it works good for him, but it wouldn't be good if he was getting chemo more often. Matthew kept getting infections in his lines too, that's why his was pulled in August. I will also pray for nothing but good, excellent,completely normal and "pouf it's gone" reports of all of your scans. Mary liked her charms, she's gonna try and add them to her bracelet soon. If I don't talk to you before Christmas, have a super fantastic Christmas. Tell your mom Hi and that i miss seeing her too. love, Katie PS. the fork says hi katie lozada, Matthew's Page <katieandfrank@msn.com> Spotsylvania, va - Tuesday, December 21, 2004 1:42 PM CST Hi!

You see my nephew, Anthony, who is 7 was diagnosed on Oct. 30, 2004 with ALL with Philadelphia Chromosone. He will be having a bone marrow transplant as soon as a doner is found. His type of cancer is rare. He actually is doing quite well. We're excited for Christmas also because Santa is delivering Anthony a special Christmas gift. I will continue to read your web site and write to you. I know how Anthony looks forward to reading what people have written to him. He says it gives him alot of strength.

Warmest regards, Tim Lin New Market, Va USA - Monday, October 4, 2004 9:22 AM CDT We love you, you are wonderful! I want to get the requirements out of the way first. We would be in to visit you if it was good for you but it wouldn't be. It would be good for us because we know you have no germs but Ashleigh is fighting something right now and on antibiotics. We pray she doesn't get the fever back, but we would be thrown out of the hospital if we got near the 5th floor for anything other than an inmate. I thought we would see you the other night but the fever broke before reaching our max. Too bad Mike couldn't give you some shots of lidocaine in your mouth and numb it all up. You are one day closer to the sores going away and feeling great. Hugs to you and hope to see you out of the "camp" real soon.

With all our Love, Grandpa & Grandma Karen Smith <gauleykaren@yahoo.com> Webster Springs,, W.V USA - Thursday, September 30, 2004 7:20 AM CDT Dear Carrie and Chassity, We hope you are tolerating this 'waiting' time OK. I know the days and nights seem soooo long. All along in treatment it's like 'hurry up and wait'............ But in transplant, esp in the middle, it's just "be patient and wait".(even though they don't exactly say that!)......... Hard to describe unless you've been the patient in the bed, or the parent watching. We especially just want to say, YOU CAN DO IT!!!! We are praying for your strength and fortitude to bear through this. + Love, Vincent and Mom, Carolyn VINCENT & MOM <Patcom111@aol.com> Allentown, PA - Wednesday, September 29, 2004 5:50 PM CDT Hey Chass & Carrie, I stopped by last night and knocked on the door. Guess you were sleeping...it was around 9:30. Hope I didn't wake anyone! I'll try to do it at a more decent hour next time. Been thinking of you from across the 5th floor, and hope to see you and Kev riding your IV poles in the halls real soon.
