And to Deri, who owns the BrightSpot Juice and Java, thank you so much for inviting us to hold the fundraiser at your business (30 N. Pine St., Sisters). Without your advice, help, and willingness we would not have had the success we did. Your heart is so huge and you are a great friend. Thank you.
Hugs to you all,
Grandma Whee

Baby Christian
Christian was born with two very rare congenital heart defects; Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS) and Endocardial Fibroelastosis (EFE) He will require three (two down, one to go!) open-heart surgeries to sustain life. He is a miracle and a blessing. We are so greatful to have him here with us. Thank you for stopping in.

I am so glad to hear that the fundraiser went well. I can't seem to keep up with you. I check and check and there are no updates. I go to work for a couple of days and don't have time to check and you post 3 new updates! Geez woman! I hope Nicole and the baby are doing well. I am anxiously awaiting more updates.

I am so pleased to hear it went so well! Dang, girl... you should've told me you were selling raffle tickets! Obviously I couldn't buy a cup of coffee when I'm almost 6 hours away from you, but I coulda bought a ticket. Slap your hand! Seriously, though, I am so glad to hear that it was such a huge success. Kudos to Deri (was that her name?) for being so generous and doing that for you guys. I'll have to come get coffee from her next time I'm in Sisters!

I'm still waiting for more updates. I hate waiting. Just kidding. I hope all is going well. You all are still in my prayers.
