We made it to NY-- Thanks to corporate angel network--- we flew here with 2 other families from Charlotte both fighting NB as well--- We arrived at the RMDH and unpacked-- and hung out at the house--- while on the elevator-- we met another family from Charlotte with the same story!! I am telling you this because that is 4 families dealing with a RARE aggressive cancer --all displaced from their homes to another hospital in another state!! Hmmmm!!

We went to dinner at Grier's favorite spot for creamed corn--- The waitresses greeted us like family-- it was very funny-- We have gone there a lot lately and they love to talk to Grier--

I will start my countdown of the days left until we fly back home tomorrow--- :)

ps-- We met Tom Lehman at the airport today--- Jeff talked Golf with him and he asked us a lot of questions about NB--- cool huh? He will be in Charlotte for the Wachovia Golf Tournament ---

Amy, Grier, Jeff and family,
My family in Cary, NC will be praying for you guys while you spend time away from home yet again. We have followed Grier's progress from the beginning when Anne Sawyer told us of Grier's situation. My kids and I pray for you every night in the most fierce way!
With love and comfort while away from home.

Thinking of and praying for Grier non-stop until his return! So hopeful that the days pass quickly and with little disconfort and pain for sweet Grier.
Get some rest...love,

Wow...My sister and I must be on the same wave length...I haven't spoken with her all weekend, but I finally settled down to check in on Grier, and I see her thinking about you guys too! We are all rooting for you, and praying for Grier everyday.

We will be sending extra special wishes your way tomorrow! Lots of love, Erin Mulligan Przybylinski and family

We are thinking about you in NYC. That is wild to run into several Charlotte families at the same time fighting the same thing. Very sad. Hugs and prayers for Grier.
