hello

my mom is better now, the doctor said she had a fever, and the next day she went to the physio therapist the next day and he relaxed her neck for her. so yeah, she is doing better. we will know by midnight tonight if my dad is on strike or not. so please keep us in your prayers. my grandpa's appetite has gone now, and thats all i know for now. thank you for your prayers.

so last night i went to tfk with Courtney and Dan and my friend from highschool and courtney's friend i think his name was jason...i called him excuse me sir, and jessica, and kevin reid. it was fun, it was super super loud, at first we were sitting right in front of the speakers so we moved back and then to the middle....it was still super fun though. i really miss my klbc friends....especially luke! i love you all.

hi everyone

my mom is going to the hospital. her head has been really hurting for a few days now....she says it feels like there is something on the top of her head. please pray for her. she called the doctor and they said to go to the hospital because she needs to get a ct scan done...thats scarey...please pray.

whats new?

well, my grandpa get his hickman line in today, and he starts his chemo. i found out a couple of days ago that my friend jesse who lives in plevna, where my trailer is, got into a car accident and broke his neck last month. his friend was driving, and they hit a deer and then went into the woods where they had to stay for the night. he can walk but he has a hailo on. jesse is such an outgoing kid. he is only 17 and is a lot of fun...but he isn't a Christian, its a mirical though...breaking his neck without it hurting his spinal cord...pray that he can see God through this...if not now than even years from now when he is grown up and looks back. also, my dad works at quaker oats in peterborough, as does my brother. their contract is due, and the deadline is july first, which is friday. please pray that they don't go on strike. my mom's car has a flat tire, so she can't drive it without a new tire, and she can't afford to go to toronto to see my grandpa if quaker goes on strike. its a super stressful time for my family, so plese keep my parents in your prayers, and also for my mom's back because it is so bad she had to go on three different pills for the past couple of weeks because it hurts so bad that she can't move. this has been going on for about 4 years now and its really tough for her because no one seems to know what is wrong. thank you all for your prayers

hello

hello everyone. my grandpa starts his pills today and his chemo on monday, please keep him in your prayers. i am going to go to that klbc dinner thing tonight, that should be fun, i guess i'll be leaving in a about an hour, but i think i might go out and see if i can tan up a bit first. hope everything is well with you all, and luke if you read this befor ei talk to you, what happened to you?!?!?!?!?!LOL. have a good day everyone, and congrats to the folks getting married today!

:(

luke is a bully. i really liked the kitty, and i really wish i could have kept him:( now he goes back to zaks and will likely die soon:(

awwe kitty

jeffrey brought a kitty home from zak's house today. he is one of the few with 20 toes and 2 eyes! jeffrey named him garfield. he is sooo sweet. right now he is curled up in the thing that our monitor sits on...sooo sweet.... he is orange and only like 3 or 4 weeks old...i really wish we could keep him...but both jeffrey and justin are allergic to him and justin is sneezing and stuff already:( he has to go back to zak's later but at least it was nice to visit with him. i want a kitty when i have my own place....i love them they are soo cute, especially garfield! still...i really wish we could keep him....he is so sweet....and its been so long since i hae had a cat...like 7 years or something....sadness.

hmmm

please keep praying for my grandpa...no one wants him to go to toronto this time...and he doens't think he will live through the bone marrow transplant. so please just keep him in your prayers! pray about the leukemia and the treatments, and that we can keep someone at the hospital everyday, and please pray for his salvation, as well as the salvation of the rest of my family. my whole family is sooo stressed out, and my mom's back is insanely bad. she has really bad back problems but no one knows whats wrong with it. she has gone to so many specialists over the past like 6 or 7 years, but still nothing...so please keep her in your prayers too. thank you all so much.

ok...it has only been one day since i talked to luke and i am a little anxious ...sadness....oh dear....whatever will i do once he goes away to foreveraway land(ecudaor)? keep praying for him about ecuador:) even though i am sad he is going i am very excited for him....but it would suck if he got malaria or something! so pray for him, and pray that he knws what to teach those kids, and that he is an awesome witness! i hope you are having a good time at grampy's luke! and look i can type again!! hehe. can't wait to hear from you, i hope you have an awesome time eel fishing!

no fair!

ummm....guys...how come luke gets billions of comments and i get zero? i don't even get a comment from luke....how sad....i am so unpopular!

oh no!!

sorry folks...luke must have escaped from the ropes...he is crazy. i do think you should go visit him in nova scotia...and bring me with you...with your money...or if you cna't make it...or afford for us both to go...send me...that is if when i close my eyes and wish real hard i am still not there(as if that wont work).

luke bruce is the luke that is hot. he is also my secratary. i was at the school practicing for milliscus and i had emailed him earlier in the day when i found out about my grandpa, and i asked him to call me at the school. then i asked him to write on my blog about my grandpa for me, and for those of you who know luke bruce, you know he is absolutely great, and funny, and fun, and so it made for an interesting blog. thank you so much luke for writing my blog for me:) my grandpa's spirits are high, and his sister results will bein on tuesday adn she was to fax the contact information of grandpa's brother's carl and ed, and his sister margeret to see if any of them are a match. please keep him in your prayers. he will be returning to princess margeret hospital soon, and we got him candy and word searches and scratch tickes and lounge clothes today at our early father's day celebration and so he was very excited to get so many gifts, and it helps him to prepare for his time in the hospital. grandma said they are just going to take it one day at a time. i cried a lot this weekend, the mere thought of telling dan made me sick because i knew it would make it more real so i tried to not tell him and i lasted all friday and most of saterday but saturday afternoon i broke down and started crying, then i told him and i cried basically right up until a couple of hours before the drama team had to perform. i was pretty upset, and scared, i love my grandpa so much, and i don't want to lose him. but, i feel a calm now. i know God is in control, and so i am sad and scared, but i know everything will work out according to God's plan. thank you all for your prayers thus far, please remember to keep praying. also, my aunt meaghan is pregnant again, she lost the last baby, and she was spotting at the beginning of this pregnancy, she is tired a lot, and she has to be very careful, please pray for her and for her baby. its fun because she is showing already...a lot...and she isn't quite 3 months! i am excited for her, and for my uncle donny, who is my grandpa and grandma's only son. this baby means a lot to the family, and grandma uses it to cheer grandpa up when he gets down. another grandchild is on the way, and its from his only son. :) we also met my cousin julie's fiance today, they will be getting married at the end of next augest. today was a really good day and i was so scared because i thought it was going to be horrible. God is awesome! praise Him!

I'm bad at titles

My secretary is typing this up for me as i am currently indisposed.

"I found out some bad news today that my grandpa is going to be put on new medication that will slow the progression of the leukemia. Hopefully one of his siblings will be a match for his bone marrow so that he can get the transplant and be ok. they cannot do chemo again. Please pray. I will write more when i am no longer indisposed."

Luke is Hot

Signed,

Nicole

klbc here we come!

i am going to klbc today for the weekend. milliscus is tomorrow, and the drama team is performing! :) sarah nicki and i and dan are staying in rez. it should be an awesome fun time! i miss my friends so much and i get to see a bunch of them this weekend yay! hope to see a bunch of you at milliscus tomorrow! love you all!

prayer please

hi guys. today is the day my grandpa goes to toronto to find out whats going on. i guess he will find out if and when treatment starts and where. please pray that everything goes smoothly today, and that the news isn't even more horrible. thank you so much for all of your prayers thus far, they are so greatly appreciated. i will post more tonight if i know more. i hope everyone has a great day. ps. its weird not having my little brother in my room...he is in ottawa until tomorrow evening...its so strange now that i am used to hearing him in there at night. and its strang not getting booted off of here whenever he feels like going on! bye bye ya'll!

hey everyone back again. i am a little bit stressed about drama i just know i am going to forget something. ross called me this morning and asked me to organize the drama part of milliscus and i am finding it stressful cuz i only have 1 day so please pray for me. and pray for ross because i know that he is super stressed out too....well he has to be way more stressed out than me, he has a lot to do. alright, my grandpa will be going to the hospital some time in the next 2 weeks to start treatment again. it will be basically the same as last time but there is this new pill that is supposed to be a big success so he will be taking that too. also they tested aunt dot's (his sister) bone marrow to see if it was a match. they don't usually do transplants on people over 60, but since he is in such good shape they might if there is a match. i kinda' want to be tested now even though i am terrified of needles and it hurts like mad. just please keep praying for him. we are having father's day on sunday so we can have it for sure before he goes to toronto. please pray for my grandpa and my family over these next few months, and remember that they aren't Christians, except for aunt dot and her husband. thank you all so much, i hope to see a bunch of you this weekend. i love you all! and i wish you could be here luke :( i miss you like crazy. night ya'll!

ok guys

i went to see my grandpa on saterday. he is up and down like crazy. one minute he is ok with it and he will be like maybe i don't have to go to toronoto. or you ready to make all those bus trips to see me again? and sometimes he is just iek i cna't believe its back, i don't believe it, i wont until they tell me on thursday. its so hard to sit there when he is almost crying. we put him to work though planting flowers we brought for grandma and digging some out for us. him and dad and uncle donny were also looking at all of our cars he just got a new one this winter, and uncle donny just got a new accura. oh...and good news we found out that aunt meaghan is pregnant again...they weren't telling anyone but its obvious and so grandma asked uncle donny straight up, and he said yes. she is about 12 weeks, so pray that she wont loose the baby this time. and this was good news for my grandpa to hear too cuz donny is his only son. i am scared about my grandpa, but i have this kind of calming faith that everything is going to be ok. God is so awesome. He gave me you guys to help me to get through all the hard times. good friends are hard to find, i am so thankful to have you guys. pretend i am giving you hugs right now....even if you don't liek hugs ;) hehe. i spent today gardening with my mom, and i would imagine that if she is feeling alright after physio tomorrow we will be doing more. today was the hardest part though, after this we just have to plant little ones to fill spaces, and to fill containers. justin's arm seems to be getting better, thats good...it has taken so long. i cleaned our whole room yesterday and the day before because dan was comming and i didn't want him to know that i still hadn't put away all my school stuff. i had to give away a tone of clothes, but thats ok i have lots to spare. it looks nice and i even have some fresh cut lilacs in there to make it smell pretty...of course justin is allergic...but hey. i appreciate all of your prayers everyone. please keep praying for my grandpa, he is going to toronto on thursday...i guess thats when we will figure out what is going to happen, when treatment will start and where and whats gonna' go on. please pray for my grandpa to have strength, enough strength to get though. last time he wrote in his journal "i will beat this thing cancer". please pray he can do it again. and pray for his salvation. thank you all i love you all, have a good night. p.s. please pray that i keep up with my Bible reading and devotions and praying. thank you good night.

wow

when your world comes crashing down, when you feel completely alone, when your heart is breaking, when there is no place to cry, no arms to hold you no where for you...you feel like this. my grandpa has leukemia again. he is ready to face it and get it over with...but i am so scared. they say the second time around you don't do as well. he did so well last time...extremely well... he just got a new job. he had retired before he got sick, but now that he is well again he was bored. so he got a new job he just started...and now...he has to quit again. his life was finally getting back to normal...we had so many plans for the summer. today was a horrible day. it wasn't even just finding out about my grandpa...it was other stuff with my family...and i realized that sometimes your closest friends....don't care about you at all...and thats scarey...cuz they know everything about you...they are the people that will hurt you the most in your life. how do you know who to trust? how many chances can you give someone before they destroy you? please please please everyone pray for my grandpa! please! i really love him a lot.

anger

jen's wedding was beautiful. i didn't get to stay for the whole reception cuz ty wanted to leave but that was ok. what i got to be part of was great! i can't believe they are married!! congratulations jordan and jenny i know your lives together are going to be awesome and blessed by God!!! if anyone has pictures of the wedding plese send them to me:( i only have one its of jordan and jen at the refreshment time before the pictures and reception. after ty and i left he dropped me off with dan and we hung out for a bit. we went for a drive, it was pretty cool, you drive right along the river for a while, i am sure its beautiful in the day time. then we went up to the lift locks and watched the fire works...sounds nice eh? well he wanted me to go onto the tower with him but as soon as i passes through both sets of gates and took one step out i freaked out. i couldn't walk on the side(even though there is a rail) becase i could see the road and i knew i was going to slip and fall to my death. so of course i do this little hyper ventilate thing(oh goody) and dan was way ahead of me and he was like whats wrong? and i couldn't answer all i could do was hold on relaly tight and very carefully get back to the pavement where i wouldn't slip and fall to my death....which is surprisingly hard to do when you are hyper ventilating... the firse works were still cool even though we just stood on the concrete and watched....the fire works were hig enough to go over the trees. it actaulyl was reall nice...its was cool to see them from so far away and see them b4 hearing them. then he brought me to timmies and my daddy came and got me and brought me home where my brother's friends and i cruised fatchicksinpartyhats.com, there are swears by the millions...and bad ones...i don't reccomend the site at all, unless you don't read the captions. i know courtney campbell really likes the site. anyway despite my little heart attack at the lift locks, and the mind trash i was looking at, last night was awesome:) and againg congratulations jordan and jenny! p.s. jerry lies he came to the wedding like he said he wasn't going to...geeze...whats with that guy? i love you jerry!
