Monday - Nov. 3 - FUN Day

I didn't have to do much at the hospital today and that was good cause I got to spend the day with my dad, my stepmom and my sister Gianna. She is only 2 and she's so cute she makes me smile and that really feels good! Also, I GOT A CELLPHONE! YIPPEEEEE! I texted my friends and everybody all day and wouldn't put it down. I got to go to Target and spend a gift card from the Lincoln-Way High School. It didn't take long to spend it, that's for sure. When we got back to the Ronald McDonald house my mom asked me if I knew how many people cared about me. I don't really know, but all I know is it's really amazing how many cards and things people are sending me and it keeps me smiling and I can almost forget for a little while that I'm not well yet. But I'm working on it! Thank you everybody for caring about me.
Love,
Brianna

Note from Parents:

Bree was very excited to get out and have a nice afternoon. The weather is sunny and in the 70's and we enjoy the fresh air!
When we returned to the RMH this evening we picked up more mail. We asked Brianna if she ever had any idea how many people really care about her and she said, "I really didn't have any idea!" With the gift baskets, messages, cards, etc. she is starting to realize the extent of people who care about her and are praying for her! It was so great and warmed our hearts to hear her admit and to see her expression when she said she had no idea how many people care about her!!
Thank you everyone for all the things (big and small) that you do every day to show you care! Brianna is staying strong despite feeling homesick, but November is a very busy month with numerous family members coming to visit. She will have family coming and going throughout the month to keep her occupied and shower her with hugs and kisses.
God Bless!
