November 25, 2009 I wish I had taken a picture. Lily, Tanner’s friend who also has ALL, was at clinic today. She, Tanner, Sara (the child life specialist), and two other little girls sat around a table in the middle of the clinic and played UNO. ...

Tanner, Thanksgiving can be any day you want it to be -- I bet E and Papa Mike, Uncle Michael, Aunt Amanda, and Mac would be delighted to do another "Thanksgiving" whenever you want! I know that they are thankful for you and how well you are doing today!

November 24, 2009 I am crying as I write this, crying for yet another child who has lost his life to cancer. I did not know him, but every time I hear about cancer taking a child so early, I can’t help but cry out of sadness for the child and his or her parents… and out of fear for my child. T...

oh Beth-I have heard of Noah too. it doesn't take knowing the kids or their family. I hae cried for a number of kids over the past year. Tanner is so sweet for what she did and you are smart to hide her treasures away. Hang in there. My heart breaks for their family. As someone else said - I HATE CANCER - in fact hate isn't even a strong enough word in my opinion

We've tried not to stress about it. It's hard to talk the talk with Tanner about hair not being a big deal if I don't walk the walk when it comes to Jake's curls. He wanted to do it, so we just decided it was, "just hair." They'll probably grow back even better.

The curly headed guy is on a 3-4 week break and then I'm sure he will be back :) It's not a permanent hairdo, just a show of solidarity... now... my turn?

I think it would take you more than 3-4 weeks to have it all come back. Maybe you could show solidarity through cool hats?

Friends of Tanner John has taken Tanner to the hospital for a blood and platelet transfusion. Thought we might make it without, but woke up to a very pale little girl with a bad headache. It will be a long day at the ER, but she will feel better with some new blood.

Friends of Tanner To the McCoys and the Whitfields: I really couldn't think of a way to thank you for the party box. It made a small celebration a big one. I'm letting Tanner do the thanking... she said it better than I could. Love, Beth
