Hannah's Magical Day
Friends from our church, PFB pulled together a wonderful party for Hannah on Saturday.
The Lord blessed all of the efforts & every detail came together in such an incredible way (especially since planning only started 10 days ago!). So many people donated & pitched in to make this party happen -- thank you, dear friends!!!!!!!
Thank you to each & every person that went out of their way to make this such a memorable day for Hannah. It was a a day to celebrate all that Hannah has made it through & a send off before we go to Seattle.
Vicki Allen, I owe you so much for pulling this incredible day together! Thank you for your heart, your care, your organization, your attention to detail & pushing this party quickly onto your calendar which I know is already incredibly full with life as a mom, wife & attorney -- among other things! You never cease to amaze me!
Thank you to every one in my Sunday School class at Pomona First Baptist, Fusion, for all each of you did to make this day so special! Thank you to the Duetts class for taking up an offering so we could have a bouncy house & slide at the party. Thank you to Catalyst class for helping with so many details! Thank you to The Original Mobile Taco Grill for providing, serving & donating lunch for the party! Thank you to Ed "The Magic Guy" for donating a wonderful magic show! Thank you to Mark Maverick from iRadio LA for working as the DJ & providing karaoke for free. Thank you to Niagra water for providing 20 cases of water bottles! Thank you to Cinderella (Natalie!) from Disneyland & her magical friends that came to meet Hannah! Thank you to PFB for providing so many details & making this day possible!
People from all over the community came together so that every single wish on Hannah's list came true!
I am so grateful ...
Here are just some pictures from Hannah's Magical Day:

PS -- Hannah's blood count numbers on Friday were stable from earlier last week. Her white blood cell count was down a bit but probably because she has been fighting something. Also, I moved Hannah's first appointment in Seattle to November 12th ... it works out better for our schedule & now she won't be starting chemo on Thanksgiving Day, if we have to move forward with transplant. We are starting to talk more about the transplant & what will be involved. I have not used the word "chemo" yet but she knows that she might lose her hair from the medicine that she will be getting before transplant.

Wow what amazing time for fellowship and encouragement for Hannah as well as the rest of your family! Its amazing to see a church being a "light" for its families when they struggle! Think of the amazing testimony you will all have(and already do!) when God heals Hannah of this illness:) We're praying for you all!
