Brianna's sisters (Haley and Kaitlyn) decided they wanted to set-up a lemonade stand to raise money for Brianna's Brigade. They set a goal of raising $1,000 for the Brigade and after 2 days they are very close to that goal...they only need to raise $300 more to reach their goal.
Brianna was blessed to see some of her teachers, best friends, neighbors, and was supported all day by Grandma Siemann, Aunt Georgia, and cousin Amanda. They spent the day with us helping keep an eye on Brianna while I took breaks to assist Haley and Kaitlyn in their efforts. Though Brianna was half awake/half asleep all day long, she still showed some smiles to those who popped in the house to see her and give her a hug!
Today the girls had a visit from a police officer and he told us he would put the word out. Soon there was a steady stream of police making our street a stop on their rounds. By 4 PM we had firetrucks and all!!! Brianna found the energy to come outside to see the firetrucks and was able to sit in the firetruck with the help of a few firemen. This is completely out of her character!! It took all her energy but she still insisted on walking back in the house.
SO, if you have not heard about the lemonade stand fundraiser and are in the Naperville area, or know anyone in the area, please pass word along so Kaitlyn and Haley can reach their goal of raising $1000 to help their sister and others fight pediatric brain cancer! They will operate 11 AM- 3 PM, at 3527 Timber Creek Ln, Naperville, IL.
Thank you and God Bless!!
