Hello Everyone,

i know its been a while since i have updated you on jazzy but this summer has been real weird for me, first i would like to say that jazzys birthday celebration was pretty cool, ans thank you for those who showed to make her feel important, sky, and summer and our family from oakland ca, and timisha and terrence and the kids, not alot of people showed for her birthday party but our church threw her a life party and that was awsome, jaz came in to the church with her 3rd grade love that flew out from oakland to see her the surprise was given to her on the 25th when she was up at doernbechers it was pretty amazing, then on the 29th jaz and malik road in on a horse driven carriage that was beautiful, they were both dressed in white and black and its was so amazing, it was a fairy tale coming true for jaz, , then august 1st was jaz's one year anniversary for her leg surgery that removed the tumor from her left leg, on that day we remembered what we had been through this last year and was extremely grateful for her to still be with us, other then that jaz is still getting better each day and well it seems like normal living is much harder to do after cancer then it was to deal with it, im finding myself more depressed, and not wanting to get up each day, so im having a few bad days for myself, other then that jaz is almost ready for school to start, she will be in the 9th grade, she is looking forward to it, well hope all of you are doing well and hope to see you all soon, we attended the relay for life in eugene and camped out that was pretty cool look forward to doing it next year, so many people that have survived cancer it was amazing, oh and we will be going to camp harlow at the end of august, hope to see you guys there its through candlelighters, well guess i will sign off now and hopefully i will update soon, love and miss you all
