Fun With Zippy!

In a day or two, I will have a new arrival in my household.

Zippy, the Lobster will be coming to visit me.

Zippy has been with Ramona in Arkansas, and having quite a lot of fun.

Zippy, isn't just any lobster. He is a LOBSTER.

He's traveling around the world to med bloggers to help raise funds for research for pediatric brain cancer.

As anyone who's read my blog for while knows, this is a particularly close subject to my heart. (posts not in order of Kylie's illness)

Please, please visit this page to donate to Zippy's cause. The Kylie's of this world need you. The people who are left behind, like Tyler and Brenden (her brothers) and her mother Teresa, need you as well. As do her friends.

Last June, I posted about a friend's baby, Kylie They'd found a tumor in her brain ...and they were going to operate ...and we needed to find out. What was the tumor? was it dangerous? It was, in fact, very dangerous.





Teresa and Kylie Kesterson, and family, began a fight to fight this monster ... an ATRT tumor.

This morning at 4 am, Kylie went to be with Jesus.

No more pain, no more needles, no more surgery. She can see normally out of both eyes and she can run and play like other 2 year old girls.

Kylie Bug ... you touched my life in a way you'll never understand. You were a sweet little girl, with a firey spirit and I will forever be glad that you were a presence in my life. Thank you.
