To say that Emma has received some male lately would me the biggest understatement ever. Lets just say that we have received approximately 140 parcels to date. I am just incredible gobsmacked at the amazing generosity of so many people. Not only has she got stickers but also Blythe clothes (think her dolls have more clothes than me now), beanies, bandanna's, books, toys and everything else. I have taken a couple of photos of the cards and things she got.
the boxes and bags at the back of the photo are all filled to the brim with stickers.

gorgeous pillow that takes pride of place on her bed with her two fav friends
an amazing decorated box all the way from New Zealand for her stickers

and more cards.
She has been so blessed.
Last week we ended up spending 4 days in hospital. Emma got a high temp and her mouth was full of ulcers. They had to keep her in to make sure she didn't have an infection. During the hospital stay her beautiful hair started falling out. This was so devastating for her as I guess it would be for anyone. She is fine about it now though which is great.
We were released on Friday afternoon and on Saturday Emma went to the hairdressers and had the remainder of her hair clipped off. She did not like the patchy look......

Jacob headed off to his Social Skills group on Tuesday and they were lucky enough to have a visit form Matty Rogers and his family. Matty started a charity called 4ASDKids which helps ASD children. 4ASDKids donated $8000 towards Gold Coast Autism. THANK YOU....
Well I have nothing more to share. Thinks are going well in the Love household at the moment. Emma heads off to Brisbane again on Wednesday for her next 4 lots of chemo. She is not really looking forward to it but it has to be done.
I am off now as I have lots to do, Have some great layouts that are being sold as kits at Mad about Scrappin. You will have to wait for those though as I haven't quite finished them. We still have 60+ thank you's to write, Emma tells me what to write then I type them up for her. She did start handwriting them but she received so much stuff that her hand was getting sore and it was taking forever.
Hope this finds you all happy and healthy
