Hospital update

Hi there guys
Eli (and mum) here!

all is going well...i had a small infection (probably a cold) and spent the weekend in hospital...i got some platelets (mum reckons they look like custard!) but it all went well, and i was out again by monday...ok though, cause it was so hot outside.

I was glad to be out and was pretty good at home...almost slept through, one small wakening at 4am but dad was a magician and got me back to sleep in no time flat!

Ive got heaps of people to thank for their support through the shave for a cure!

we would like to thank:
All those awesome people who donated moolah! i think we are going to be somewhere between 12,000-15,000...what a fantastic effort (combined tally!)

the entertainment centre at lakes for holding a night on our behalf...looks like you guys had an absolute hoot!

emma from Cutz in Lakes...she shaved all the heads on friday 14th for us at the Lakes Fisheries Depot

Donna, Nat, Belinda and leona for their ongoing support and for organising the cut at bairnsdale...they managed to raise almost 3000! ABSOLUTELY AWESOME EFFORT! And to all those people who put their heads, beards and chest hair on the line (we heard you screaming from here Phil E!)

Belinda Stevens and candice basham for organising the shave at head office...it went really well with our ED now bald - and not too bad on the eye!

Thanks to nana from bacchus marsh and lesley for cooking us some grub...Yummo!

Thanks to ALL those generous people who put their noggins/beards/moes/hair on the line for the leukaemia foundation...you are all just the absolute best!

last but not least Aunty hayley for stepping into mums shoes and running the whole kit and caboodle while we have been up here in melbourne! she has been so great with running the show as well as running her own very busy family...we thank you heaps hayley!

We would also like to thank all of you for continuing to send us all your love and wishes to us...we have said it once before, and we will keep saying it...it really does keep us all going!

we have a long way to go, but are looking forward to going home. i would be so happy to be out by my first birthday...so we are counting down for that now!

look after yourselves wont you...and keep the txts/comments coming...we love them!

lots of love, hugs, but not too much sunshine!
