Day -6

We had a great day yesterday. We were introduced to His Grace Foundation. They are a charitable organization that has adopted the BMT unit. This foundation was started by a couple whose daughter had a Bone marrow transplant here at TCH. She is now 17 and doing great. While they were here they saw the needs of families and now provided services to fill those needs. They do such things as: Host catered dinners twice a month, provided parking passes (parking is $12 a day)for the duration of your stay, go shopping at Walmart once a week for families with $25.00 limit, offer massage therapy once a week, provide child sitting services and give people emotional support and serve however they can. All their volunteers go through special training and are well versed in how to respond to families in our situation. Two volunteers came by yesterday and met us for the first time. They brought us a huge basket with lots or toys, blankets, magazines, toiletries, and snack food. They also gave us a laundry basket, hangers, soaps, and a small pillow. I was so surprised at how many thoughtful gifts were in the basket. We heard they would bring a basket but we didn't think it would be so large. What a great foundation, started by some special, inspiring people.

Between the basket of toys and all the stuff in the play room we had a fun filled day. Bridger's favorite was a yellow squishy ball and a finger bowling set. He was happy and full of energy all day.

Maybe Bridger will take after his Pap's In WY who Bowl on a league.
It's all in the form.
