Wii had a very Merry Christmas!!!

Wii :) had a very Merry Christmas-- Grier was very excited as well as Hayes and Grace-- They enjoyed all their presents and the wii is the new family pastime!! Even Grier loves to play baseball on it! The best part was being at home and together--

MSKCC gave us a short break from this crazy routine we have been living-- Today, Grier had an echo test at the Sanger Clinic-- When we got home Sloan called to tell us our January schedule-- Of course, they did not listen to any requests we had! I have asked them to try to change it-- We will be in NY on the 3rd for the MIBG injection-- the 4th will be the scan and then we will wait for them to tell us when the CT and bone marrow tests will be-- Hopefully, this will be a crazy few days of testing then we can come home for a few weeks-

Thanks again for all the prayers, help, emails, gifts, this year-- It had made a hard year a bit easier-- Merry Christmas and Happy New Year-

We are so happy to hear you had a wonderful well deserved holiday.
I am sure it was very busy and exciting.
Sorry you could not have a little longer break from Doctors and hospitals.
We need to look to 2008 and know it will be a year of miracles for the Christenbury family.
Enjoy the rest of the holiday. Know you are always in our hearts and prayers.
Love,The Paine's

So glad Christmas was merry and Wii-ful. Katie and Joel brought theirs from Seattle and we have all been playing everything from Mario to baseball to bowling -- what a hoot!! I know your kids, you, and Jeff all enjoyed literally getting into the swing of Wii baseball!

Wish you could have had more time before returning to NYC, but when the call comes, you gotta go! School will be back in so Grace and Hayes will be busy again. Hopefully you won't have to stay for more than a few days.

Continue to enjoy the holiday break and know that you are ever in my thoughts and prayers.

Wii at the Stack house wish you a Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year. Be careful of the Wii bowling, I think I pulled my hips out of joint throwing a few too many strikes!! Santa came through and delivered Slugfest MLB. Thanks alot Hayes for introducing Campbell to that crazy game! Enjoy the rest of the holiday. WE LOVE YOU GUYS!!!! Victoria

Hope you all saw Good Morning America this morning. The mom who's child had Neuroblastoma was on. She talked about her cookie sales and how she raised all that money. It was very positive to hear her speak. Her little boy Liam is doing great.
We are wishing you hope and miracles in 2008. We will be thinking of you and praying for all of you.
Love,

So glad to know you all shared a wonderful Christmas together! As ME stated, I sure do wish you had a longer break from NY. However, won't it be good to have this next trip behind you and start the year off on a positive note...back to school, first NY trip...check, and a possible new routine? Thinking of you this entire holiday season...looking forward to following Grier's progress in the early part of next year.

Hoping you all have a very happy New Year! We have been in Delaware since Christmas day and will return tomorrow...New Year's Day. As always, please call or email me with any wants, needs, etc.

Lots of love to you all...
