Hello Everyone! Do you like the new decor? Caringbridge was willing to work with an NB mom (angel Isaac's mom) to design such a nice page. The gold ribbons, obviously, are the symbol of pediatric cancer. September is Childhood Cancer Awareness Month. I know you don't hear about it on the news or see the gold ribbons and products in all the stores like you do pink, but it is this month. So, consider saying a prayer or making a donation in honor of these beautiful children. Looking for a great cause? Check out www.bandofparents.org. This site is for the group of parents raising money for the NB docs at Sloan Kettering. These are Jenna's docs. They have some new therapies coming out, they just need more funding. Please, consider making a donation. Okay, I'm finished with my rant. Guess what else?? Last night we went to the Open House at the kids' school. The most amazing thing is that Jenna's teacher said she is doing great! No issues at all! She is working hard and is right where she needs to be (right now). Now of course, it's so early in the year, but we'll take it. I also spoke to the guidance counselor, though, and did stress the importance of getting her on the Special Ed. agenda to discuss Dr. Rosen's report and continue to monitor Jenna closely. We know that last year she began the year not being able to see or hear and now that is all set so I'm sure that makes all the difference--obviously. That, combined with her incredibly sweet aiming-to-please personality and we have a winning combination! Amazing! Jarrod, of course, is also doing well. He is always such a good student and such a hard worker that I never worry about him. He is well into his soccer season and is thriving with that too. Jenna has been continuing her hip hop dancing this fall. Good stuff. I think that's all for now--thanks for checking in!
