JANUARY 20, 2009

After such a difficult day yesterday, Danny did really well today.  It may have been his best day yet.  He started the morning off with a hard 15 minute seizure at 8:30 am.  I left and went to Bible Study and the same volunteer that was here last week came to sit with Danny.  I came home about 11:30 am and checked on Danny and he was just watching TV in his room.  He seemed very peaceful and calm.  About 1 pm my good friend Sharon came over with tacos from Jack in the Box for Danny and me.  Danny got all excited about the tacos and he ate 5 of them.  There really isn't much to them but it sure did make him happy and thats what it is all about.  He took a good nap and Aunt Patty came over and they watched a little bit of Wild Hog.  Danny seemed to enjoy that too.  Patty left and Danny was ready for an afternoon snack (chocolate pudding).  He really loves that too.  About 5 pm, for dinner Danny ate some leftover Stroganoff that his sister in law Vickie made the night before.  He ate 2 big bowls of that with blueberry bread.  He came in the living room and watched a little TV and then his other sister in law Breon, Chay and KK came over.  They only stayed for a short file, because I really believe that Danny does so much better when its quiet and he doesn't get too stressed.  He eats an ice cream sandwich every evening about 1 hour before he goes to bed.  Jackie and Jenna, I read Danny your sweet notes and he got a big grin.  I know he will be excited to see the three of you.
Just so all of you know too, Danny doesn't give me any trouble.  He is so sweet and he smiles a lot with me.  I rub his tummy and he gets this funny little grin.  Patty and I and the girls were going over his baby pictures with his little brother Chris.  I have to say that Danny was a beautiful baby and he still is a handsome man.  My mom and dad were so proud of him, they just doted on their first grandchild.  Well enough from his favorite fan, MOM.

  1. Hi Danny,

    Glad to hear you had a good day yesterday. Hopefully today will be good as well. Well I finally heard from Kid Ryan about his Steelers and would you believe that we are going to go to the Super Bowl. A buddy of mine who is in the foreclosure business bought 4 tickets right after the Cards won --- He was in my wedding along with Kid Ryan so they know each other. Mark is coming down to Phoenix next Wednesday and then we will all head for Tampa on Thursday.
    So Danny when you watch the game watch for us we will be the ones in the highest row in the stadium with a Cardinal and Steeler fan sitting next to each other.

    Kid Ryan wanted me to say hi to you and let you know that he misses shooting pool with you and your brother. He said to keep on fighting and just look to White House to see that anything can happen.

    Well I have had this big pinino craving every since your aunt Patty said she was taking you there ---- don't forget to eat a extra one for me. I sent you a little something for dessert after your meal -- enjoy!!!!!!!

    Have a great day

    Love you
    Uncle Gary

  2. Hey, nice picture slick! Looking pretty good. I'm glad you had a better day yesterday, I hate thinking about you having such a hard time.
    With everything going on with our crazy Brantley side of the family lately I've been thinking about my sister a lot. I hope you know how much she appreciated everything you did for her and enjoyed the time she spent with you. And remember when things get tough and you need some help or just someone to talk to, you can count on her to be there for you. We all love you, stay strong! :)
