Chook Me!

The next picture was taken in our living room I received a call

Summary: The next picture was taken in our living room I received a call from Angel Flight asking if she could give my info to a reporter and would I be willing to do an interview to increase the awareness and need for more pilots with Angel Flight Of course I agreed and two days later a film producer called me A film producer I was expecting a newspaper reporter She set up a time for her and the filming crew to come to our house and we talked for a while Another first while I was sharing Savannah s story I told her of the boys we lost in May of 98 She too had lost twin girls in May of 98 WOW That was too much for words So the picture below is one I took of Warren filming Savannah dancing Yes she chose her Snow White outfit to dance in They rearranged our den to their liking and did about a 20 minute interview with Savannah my mom and myself They filmed us playing outside and just doing our everyday stuff They will send a copy to me when they are finished The film will be shown in all Baptist Churches in NC about 3000 sponsored by the Baptist State Convention There will be one other child interviewed as well In the mean time EJ arrived home from school He went straight to the kitchen and fixed a huge plate of fried chicken mac n cheese rice and biscuits Whe I realized what he was doing I gasped and said What are you doing EJ Well the filming crew stopped to see the commotion and mind you at least one of them had a camera in their hands at all times EJ looks at me and says I didn t get to eat lunch at school today I said with a duh attitude You are fasting this weekend remember Well the cameras started rolling and the laughter began Of course he remembered he was fasting and boy was he ever hungry He knew he was getting ready to join his youth group at church who was having a 30 hour famine and that there would be no food for them this weekend until the following evening He was stocking up like a bear does before hibernation Warren with film rolling did a short film of EJ and how to fast or not to fast Either way it was hilarious and they threatened to put it on youtube Wow That was a lot of fun Savannah is continuing to make forward progress academically She can read almost 100 f her site words now and is very proud of herself when she can read one of her nightly baggy books from school She started dance about 5 weeks ago and LOVES it as we all knew she would She is taking Tap Jazz and Ballet I can t help but think of Avery our 1st liver donor even more than normal Avery loved ballet and was 6 years old when she passed Now Savannah is 6 and is loving her dance classes What a gift Her last labs were so so Her tac level has decided to play the yo yo game again Chapel Hill finally said You know what She is a year out and this weekly lab stuff is hard Lets increase he dosage and repeat labs in a month I almost fell in the floor We have never made it to monthly labs A couple of times we would go bi weekly only to return to weekly Oh this has been so nice Savannah needed the break desperately So all in all our family is doing great Nothing really spectacular to anyone but to us this is as close to normal as our family has ever been We are so grateful for the boring days Life is so precious and we are reminded of that daily I never forget to show Savannah the flowering daffodils to embrace the wind and watch the stars That s what life is all about That my friends is the secret The next picture was taken in our living room I received a call from Angel Flight asking if she could give my info to a reporter and would I be
