About Joe's birthday.

Thank you so much to everyone who helped to make Joe's birthday week so enjoyable. Joe was so appreciative and overwhelmed by all the love and encouragement he received. Simply being out of the hospital and not getting a "hideous" rash made this year better than last year. Beyond that, it was all love, love, love. The girls in short stay saw that it was Joe's birthday and had a cute little cake sent up for him. Joe's gift from the his doctors & the radiology department was a CT scan! Far better than a rash, don't you think? We had the lovely family dinner that Joe wrote about. And Joe received so many cards, fun photos, songs to listen to, creative videos...the works. Our church congregation even sent over a video of everyone singing happy birthday to Joe. How awesome is that? So thank you, thank you, thank you for making Joe feel so loved. I have a list of thank yous. I apologize in advance if I miss anyone. Feel free to send me an angry email. :)

HUGS & KISSES for everyone! We love you. :)
