Update on Mel 5/9
Melody started radiation just before Easter and has been tolerating it
well. The daily trips to Children’s hospital San Diego have been doing
some good. Melody is back to her happy self again. She makes jokes,
laughs, enjoys company and even signed her Mommy’s Mothers day card. (“I
love you, Melody”)
This was a busy weekend in Hemet. Melody’s cousin Skye turned 7 on
Saturday and Melody attended her birthday party in the morning. THEN that
afternoon was Melody’s 7th Birthday Party. It was a blessed busy day
enjoyed by all. And Monday, the 10th of May, is Melody’s actual 7th
birthday and she is making a visit to her 1st grade class to deliver
cupcakes and juice.
Melody had many visitors over the weekend. From Family, friends and
even a motorcycle club made an appearance to drop a hefty donation and a
certificate naming Melody an honorary member of the SoCalStars. Not
forgetting to mention a club T-shirt signed by all who rode for Melody.
And a cute little teddy bear in leather for her to hug with pride.
Melody enjoyed the day along with her parents and extended family and
friends. It was a special gift from God to be able to celebrate with
everyone.
These days Melody is quite busy with treatment. She leaves home at 10am
and returns by 2:30pm after a 160 mile round trip and special time with
Mommy and Daddy. All the while Devin is in school. Doing what he does
best.
TV, snacks, visitors and waiting for the mail man keep Melody happy and
healthy. Each day or so she picks a different food that sounds good and
then she moves on to the next. i.e. Rice Krispies for breakfast, lunch and
supper, KFC chicken all day, thanks to cousin K.C., yogurt all flavors and
bubble gum the last few days. Sweets keep this girl even sweeter!
As you may notice many physical changes have come over Melody. She was
not laughing and now she is, she could not speak very much and now she can
have fantastic conversations, she could not walk and now she is getting
around pretty good with help from all. She is working hard to be
independent again.
We must thank you all for the well wishes, prayers, gifts, love and
concern. Robbie has said more times than we can count, that he wishes he
could thank every one of you who have helped and continue to help, face to
face. Because of you all they are able to stay home from work to be “one”
as they work on this job. It is wonderful to see them side-by-side as a
loving compassionate example for all.
God Bless You and Thank You with all our hearts!

Update on Mel 5/14
“Good news! We went to Melody's appointment today and saw Dr. Roberts.
Robbie told the doctor how good Melody is doing and that the only thing
she can't do is walk. Robbie asked the doctor if her improvement is
typical. Dr. Roberts said no, that Mel is doing better that typical. He
said they usually don't see improvements in kids with Melody's problem
until after radiation is over. We started seeing improvements two weeks
after it started. So, in two weeks Melody will start chemo-not the kind by
IV but in a pill. She will do it for five days then nothing until the next
month. Her hair will not fall out and the only real side effect she will
feel is maybe an upset stomach but nothing like the IV chemo effects. This
is the start of our MIRACLE, a month ago chemo was not an option for
Melody.
So spread the good news and Thank GOD!” | |
Update on Mel 6/23
Melody is continuing to handle the many changes in her body with stride.
Like anyone who is going through this she has her up and down days. She
takes weekly trips to San Diego Children’s Hospital for blood work which
wears her and her parents out. On June 29th Melody will have an MRI to see
just how well the radiation and chemotherapy have affected things. We ask
that you give thanks for what we have been given so far and ask God to
bless us further with a great reading of the MRI.
Melody has a chance to leave California for a treatment called cyber
knife. She could be going to Texas if everything comes together as she
needs it. Again we ask for your prayers to grant us our miracle for
Melody. This treatment will lengthen the time Rob will need to be out of
work so I again ask you to give what you can. Every little bit helps them
have more time together as a family, enables them to pay for living
expenses at home and during treatments away from home and generally helps.
Sprocket Entertainment, the Webmasters comedy Troup, donates a portion of
all comedy shows for Melody. If you enjoy a fantastic evening out laughing
for the benefit of Melody please check out the events page for the dates
in the future. If you would like to host a fundraiser of any sort please
contact us and we will help where we can. Car washes, coin collection in
your office, run-walk events, or if you know of a restaurant that can
donate a portion of funds raised a planned night, let us know. We will do
our best to get Melody there and we will post all the information on the
web page for others to see and join in.
Don’t forget to tell anyone you meet about the web site. Melody’s map
fundraiser does not have that many pins posted and the numbers of letters
to Melody have dropped off drastically. We thank those of you whom have
sent cards, letters and dollars however we were hoping to cover the map.
There are still states that Melody has yet to hear from. Hillary Clinton
said “It takes a village…” and we ask that you look to your neighbors for
ideas, cards and connections.
Come on…do it for Melody
Respectfully submitted from Melody’s Aunt Sissy

Update on Mel 7/9
The results from Melody’s MRI are in. The family wanted to share them with
you all.
Original test results at diagnosis 4.5 3.3 3.75
Test results from latest MRI 4.0 3.0 3.75
As you can see there has been some shrinkage in the mass. To put the
size into perspective; it is roughly the size of a golf ball. There is
some concern with the ventricle openings and fluid build up and there has
been talk of possible treatments to elevate the fluid. Shunt therapy is
one possible treatment discussed. Melody has started another treatment
called Protocel. It is a liquid taken orally and is designed to attack the
cancerous cells. Compared to a normal cell, which carries oxygen, a
cancerous cell is void of oxygen and the Protocel will attack those cells.
The down side here is it is not covered by the insurance and is $95 a
month.
The trip to Texas is still in the planning stages. The results of the
latest test are being forwarded to the clinic and we should hear soon if
Melody is a candidate for the Cyber Knife. If Melody is able to have
treatment there the family will be driving to Texas. Understandably the
ease of having their own vehicle with them is wanted. If you wish to
assist with the expense of gas; a gas gift card will be most welcomed. If
you would like to sponsor Melody for a month of
Protocel donations can be
mailed directly to the Schleigh home or sent through “PayPal” on the
donations page.
In the near future there will be some changes to Melody’s Web page. We
have pictures of Melody from birth to present, some art work we would like
to share and the “Uncle Bill’s Haircut” plans are wrapping up. We ask that
you continue to Pray for a miracle for Melody and strength for the family
during this time.
Warmly,
Melody’s Aunt Sissy | |
Update on Mel 7/22
Just wanted to let you know that we are doing as well
as can be expected. The past couple of weeks have been hell on Deb. And of
course me.
We still wonder why Melody? We are not giving up not
by any means. The Texas Cyberknife trip will not happen. Melody is not a
candidate, the tumor is too large. We have been calling around to every
neurosurgeon that will talk to us. Everyone so far has said that because
of the location she is not a candidate for surgery. How can God’s plan be
to take such a beautiful, happy little girl so early in her life? What
good can come from this? We spend every day begging Him for Melody’s
life, does He hear us? We taught her to not talk to strangers and to stay
out of the street to keep her safe. We never thought this could happen to
her.
There isn’t much change in Melody. She is still
handling things as well as can be expected. She is still not walking on
her own and that creates problems of its own. (Sore muscles and such.) She
takes all her meds like a champ nine times a day. We don’t do a lot; she
likes to play board games with her cousins and of course us. Let me tell
you she can play a mean game of Candy Land. She loves to watch cartoons,
mostly Sponge Bob. I am always ask her if she wants to go rent some
movies and she always tells me not right now, maybe later.
Make a Wish was here yesterday. Mel wished to go to
Disney World. They asked her lots of questions. But the one that stands
out in my mind is… If you could meet someone like a movie star or someone
famous who would it be? Mel replied “JESUS!” Well I don’t know about you
all but I not ready for her to meet him yet. Later I told her she wasn’t
allowed to meet him yet. She kind of laughed and said “Not to stay, just
to visit. I mean just go up there and meet him and then come back down.” I
about lost it right there. I explained to her that it doesn’t work like
that. I ask Jesus every day all day to talk to her let her know the he is
with her. To please talk to her and comfort her. All I am saying is “I
just not ready for her to meet him yet. Maybe in about 70 or 80 years.”
Well there is not much more to tell. I’m sure Mel
can’t wait for the weight from the steroids to start coming off. (Her poor
little legs, I can’t even imagine.) It sure would bring more normal things
to her life. But until then I get to be the Melevator up and down the
stairs. Melody is looking forward to Disney World as is Devin. I wish we
weren’t going there this way. I want it to be on our terms not on cancer’s
terms.
Keep on visiting
Mel’s web page. I hope to get some new things up soon pictures, poems and
a Thank You page. I have added some new links toward the bottom of the
front page. Links to other kids and links to the attentive we have chosen
for Mel. Please be sure to visit the pages of the other children the are
also in need of your prayers. Be sure to leave us a message they are great
to read and it is so nice to feel like you are not alone.
Thank you to everyone

Update on Mel 8/14
Hello everyone just a quick update. And I promise I
will try to update more often. First there are a few new things on the
site. If you place you pointer over the picture of Melody in the top left
corner of the main page you get another picture. Its Melody today. The
gold ribbon in the top right corner has its own story click it and you
will see. The new guest book. Please sign it often. It is great to here
from everyone, friends and strangers alike. Lots of new pictures. About
200 or so. Click on “Photo Gallery” and click on “Mel’s Life”. Its Mel’s
life from birth to today. Oh yea and we updated "The Story” and “About
Melody”.
Uncle Bill’s Hair cut is coming. I hope to see lots
of people here.
8TH DAY FALL will be performing. And it’s going to be great
to see my brother get a hair cut (lol). Now you have to know my brother.
The last time I can remember him having short hair was…..ok I can’t
remember but I know it was short at least once.
Don’t forget about the comedy show its going to be a
really fun night. I know it’s a long drive for a lot of you but please
join us. Thanks to my sister Karen and,
Sprocket Entertainment for everything.
Ok now for Mel. She is doing ok. No major changes in
her health. We are trying to get rid of the steroids, we are down to 1mg a
day. We should be down to ½ mg a day but headaches prevented that. So… we
need to hold of for a week or so before we drop it down again. Her back
has be hurting her and last night it got to a point where she couldn’t
handle it any more so we called the Doc’s office and they gave us Vicodin
for the pain. That seems to make the pain go away. They said it could be
the extra weight or side affects from the steroids. (Those things are
nasty to the body) It really sucks to see her in so much pain. We will be
having a MRI in September. We are kinda (and I use that word loosely)
looking forward to it so we can see how much MORE this tumor has shrank.
And we know it has. ;-)
Games, games and more games. Old Maid, Doggie match,
Rummy, Bingo and many, many more games. Melody and her two cousins Allison
and Skye have been playing games and doing arts and crafts so often, I
think the boards and there fingers are wearing out. I’ve never seen so
many fuzzy posters and foam things in my life.
Well I guess that’s it for now. Like I said I will
try and update more often. I know how much we look forward to reading the
update that
Cheyenne’s dad Roy does everyday. (What an animal! Just kidding Roy
you’re the man.) There are other families that do frequent updates also so
I’ll try and take lead from them.
Thank you for keeping us and all the other children
that are fighting this beast in your prayers. I often wonder what we do
with out ALL of you.
Keeping the Faith

Update on Mel 8/16
Wow what an afternoon! We went down to San Diego
today so Mel could see the optometrist. We left here at noon and had to go
to my folk’s house to drop Devin off for a visit. We arrived around 1:40
stopped for a potty break at Bam and Pops, dropped Devin off and went on
the appointment.
The first thing the doctor said when he looked into
Melody’s eyes was that she has a mild astigmatism (thank you Bammom and
Aunt Sissy). After Melody read the eye charts, the doctor told us that
she is also nearsighted (thank you Grammy and Auntie Dawn). The doctor
also added a prism to the lens on the left side and it seemed to make the
eye muscles do what was needed to correct the double vision. Then the
doctor told her he was going to dilate her eyes. She cried because she
was afraid of the eye drops but the doctor assured her that after all
she’s been through the eye drops were nothing. She laughed and let him
put the drops in. Afterward, they even gave her a cool pair of
sunglasses. Much nicer than the ones they usually hand out after your
eyes are dilated. When we got home, she showed them off to Allison and
Skye. Tomorrow, we will be shopping around for Melody’s glasses. I
thought she might be upset about it but she isn’t. She is excited and
wants to pick out a pretty case for them. The doctor says they may bother
her until she gets used to them. After she does get used to them (about a
month or two) we’ll go back for a follow-up to make sure her glasses are
just right.
Now with that all said. When we arrived home at 6:45
let me tell you what we found. For those of you that know we got a new
puppy. Bruce the German Shepard. 4mo old and about 50lbs (He’s going to be
a big boy). Well he had a party while we were gone. When I opened the
door…. WOW! He must have had a food fight with Jetta (also a German
Shepard) there was dog food everywhere. They also played dress up because
there were clothes taken out of the laundry. Oh yea and they were coloring
with crayons two boxes one 64 count one 96 count. When he finished that he
decided to brush his teeth with both toilet brushes. Finished with that he
must have needed to relax so… he took a magazine off the end table and
spread it out across the entire down stairs. It must have been easier to
read that way. It’s a good thing he is so darn cute.
It was a long day but it was fun being together
today. Melody, Allison and Skye are all coloring at the dinning room table
with the crayons that are left and playing some card games. And just being
loud and silly. The house is just about cleaned up now and I finished
cleaning up the garage for this weekends festivities.
Just a note about email notifications. If you would
like to be notified of future events, updates and what have you, register
on the bulletin board. Be sure to include you email address. Please sign
the guest book as often as possible, Melody as well as us, LOVE to
read the entries. Even if it’s just to say you stopped by to check up,
every one means a lot.
Thank you for all the prayers for Melody, our family
and all the children in the world that are in need.
God Bless everyone.

Update on Mel 8/17
Today was not a good day for Mel. When I woke her and
mom (Deb) up Melody had to go to the restroom. Her back was killing her
she was in a lot of pain. After breakfast we got ready to go hunting for
glasses. We made it out to the car but she could not get in. So we decided
to give it another go tomorrow. Needless to say we didn’t make it to the
prayer room today either. Mel was a little disappointed because we were
supposed to get new crayons.
The cousins came over later in the day. They played
board games, card games, BINGO, (mom was the caller ;-)) and did some
coloring. At one point they were all screaming and having a great time.
Because Mel’s back is so bad we haven’t been sleeping
up stairs. So much for being the Melavator. So we decided to take the
frame off the downstairs bed so it will hopefully be easier for her to
scoot in.
Today is the first day in about 5mo. that Mel has not
had a steroid. We are down to 1mg every other day. Once she is off them I
will tell the doctor that he needs to come up with an alternative to
steroids, one with less side effects. This weight is taken its toll on her
as well as us. She has more than doubled her weight in the same amount of
time. We can’t even buy clothes to fit anymore. Luckily Bammom can sew
and has made her 6 beautiful dresses.
We thank God for each day. Keep praying for my little
princes. As well as all the children in this world.
God Bless you all
Rob

Update on Mel 8/18
Today was a much better day for Melody. Her back was
feeling much better.
We made it out today to search for glasses. We went
to Wal-Mart (sorry Sis); we found a pair of frames right away. However
they can not do the Prism needed to help the double vision. So….tomorrow
we are on a quest to find a place that can make the lenses she needs.
After the news about the glasses we found a nice pack
of crayons, to replace the ones Bruce ate. We also went into the arts and
crafts area. We purchased some more paints, paint brushes, some paint
stamps and some sewing stuff. Melody loves when Daddy goes with shopping
because she doesn’t get a few things to choose from, she gets pretty much
everything. After that we found a nice birthday gift for Cousin Allison.
(Ha ha Alli I know what you’re getting). Melody also bought a new Bratz
board game to play with the girls. She also purchased a little play
telephone with her medicine money.
When we got home we rested from our little trip. A
little later mom ran off to the grocery store, and Melody and I played the
new Bratz game. (I kicked her butt ;-))Then we had dinner and watched the
Olympics. Mel is right now sewing after she did a little painting.
The bed thing worked out great, easy in easy out. No
problems, no pain. Mel slept great she didn’t get out of bed until
11Oclock.
Thank you all so much for the prayers for Melody and
our family. I honestly do not know what we would do with out you all and
your prayers. Keep sending them out for us as well as all the children and
there families.
Thank you all and God Bless
Rob | |
Update on Mel 8/19
Melody had a mixed day today. After we got up, ate
breakfast and got dressed, we went over to Wal-Mart to get some non-drowsy
Benadryl. She has been very itchy lately, not just on her stretch marks,
but all over. I think it may be from the Vicodin she is taking for her
back. We also picked up some more paint for her to use with her sponges
that Daddy bought her yesterday.
When we got home, she wanted to call to see if
cousins Alli and Skye could come over and play. Today is Alli’s 8th
birthday. Happy Birthday Alli!!! I told her I would call, but explained
to Mel that Alli might be busy with birthday stuff on her special day.
Alli was busy, and Melody understood (I told Mel that she wasn’t home, she
was out doing birthday stuff), and I told her we would see her later at
her birthday party. Daddy and I took turns playing games with her. I
knew today would be hard on Melody because she can’t get up and play with
the other kids. When Alli and Skye come over to play, she has them all to
herself, and they are so good to her, they sit and play and make crafts
for hours on end when I’m sure at least sometimes they would like to be
outside running around. So, after being at the birthday party for awhile
and watching all the kids run around and play, Melody burst into tears and
wanted to go home.
But wait, there is a happy ending!!! About 15
minutes later, Alli and Skye came over with a bunch of craft supplies!!!
It’s 10:15 pm right now and they are all at the kitchen table, laughing
and having a good time.
We are down to 1mg of steroid every other day. The
doctor says that should break the toxicity and reduce the swelling as well
as decrease her appetite back to normal. I hope all of the extra weight
comes off quickly so we can get out and go to the park and do other fun
stuff when the girls go back to school.
Please keep Melody and all of the other children in
your prayers. Thank you all for everything you have done.
God Bless
Deb

Update on Mel 8/20
Since we have started this time in our life, we have
the privilege of meeting some amazing kids and there families. Tonight
with a sad and heavy heart that I introduce to you
Mikki
(Michaela) she has gone to be with Jesus tonight. We have followed her
through the past few months. You get to know these kids and find a place
in your heart for them and it really hurts when then go. Please remember
her family in your prayers. She is no longer in pain and is cancer free.
Click on Mikki’s
name above to see her story and leave her family a message.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
It was a good day for Mel today although it didn’t
start out that way. Mommy forgot to give Melody her Vicodin at 7am, so her
back hurt getting out of bed. About ½ hour after she got her meds her back
felt better. We had Melody wait to eat until we could be sure her Vicodin
kicked in, so she wound up having brunch instead of breakfast.
This afternoon, Debbie and I went off to Costco for a
little shopping and of course we were told by Mel to look for arts and
crafts stuff. We found a new workbook and construction paper for her.
(Who can say no to Melly?) The cousins came over while we were gone and
played with Alli’s new b-day stuff, listened to CDs, did crafts and played
games. When the girls returned home for some dinner, Melody and Debbie
went to Target to spend Mel’s medicine money. Melody has never been a
medicine taker, and in the very beginning, Aunt Sissy suggested that for
each time she takes her medicine good, mom and dad will put a quarter in
her “medicine money” jar. Seeing Alli’s birthday presents yesterday made
Mel’s money start burning a hole in her pocket. She needed a new pink
purse like Alli’s and a Hilary Duff CD like Alli’s. After we had a little
dinner, Uncle Bill came up from San Diego with more cousins (Silver and
Dakota) and Devin around 8:30 and visited for a bit before going over to
Aunt Sissy’s. After dinner, the cousins (all of them) came over for more
fun and music. It’s beginning to get quiet now, the ladies are going home
and we’re going to bed early so Melody is well rested for the BIG
day tomorrow.
Yes that’s right Uncle Bill gets a buzz! (hehe) I’m
not sure how well Mel is going to do tomorrow being shy and all, but we’ve
been working her up to it all week. She wants all of her cousin’s right
there with her. Yesterday Bammom and Grammy came up. Keep an eye out for
pictures and a short video for those of you who can’t be here.
Well thanks to all of you who have been signing the
guest book we just love them and look forward to each and every one.
Good night all thank you for everything, the prayers,
thoughts, donations, cards, notes just everything. And a special thanks to
Stan (aka Mr.S). With out him we wouldn’t be able to share this time in
our lives with you all. Thank you Stan, thank you very, VERY much.
Thank you for all the Prayers for Melody and all the
other children of this world who are in need.
God Bless you all

Update on Mel 8/21-8/22
What a great day we had yesterday. This will be more
of an update for yesterday than today. But I will do another update for
today.
Things started out kind of busy with getting ready
for the big cutoff day. While everybody had a job, Melody and the cousins
painted, colored and played games.
At about 4:00 people started to show up at the house.
And it quickly got busy. Melody had a little trouble with the shyness
early but after she got her hands on some shades she did great. We told
her to imagine everyone walking around in Spongebob underwear. The band
(8th Day Fall) was running a little behind. All the bikers
(Lone Riders) showed up shortly after 4:00 and what a sight it was. There
were about 20 bikes and about 30 or so riders. What a great group of
people. They really bring the life to the party. Shortly after their
arrival, the band showed up and set up in about 30min and started to play.
We really love them; you should check out their web page and think about
purchasing their CD’s. (Keep your eye out for them).
At about 5:30 or so it was time to cut. Silver and
Dakota (Bill’s girls) got to cut off the pony tail, then Mel went at it
with clippers with some help from mom. I thought she would take a swipe or
two and then want to get out of the spotlight. Boy was I wrong! She keep
going and going and going. What a time she had smiling up a storm and I
think I even heard a giggle or two out of her. After a while she was done
and gave a few other people a shot and that head of hair.
Uncle Bill, I heard so many people say how great it
was of you to do that. I would have to agree. You’ve come a long way and I
don’t know what we do with out you. You take care of mom and dad’s house
and Mr. Phil when they are up here and helping us. BILL, U DA MAN!!!
After the cut the band played for a while longer and
then wrapped it up, signing CD’s and drumsticks. 8Th Day Fall,
THANK YOU SO MUCH! You have done so much for us and we can’t say enough
about you all. You will always be in our hearts and we will never forget
you. (Even when you get HUGE and we are downloading your songs off the
internet for free ;-) HAHA)
Thank you to Aunt Sissy for all of your hard work
putting all of this together; to Peejay, Andrew and Devin for setting up
canopies and tables; to Sarah the pizza Nazi (just kidding!!!) and KC for
setting up and selling refreshments; and Renee for giving massages; to
Stan for being the emcee and videographer; to Poppa for selling the
tickets to the comedy show next week; to the local VFW for there donation;
to Bammom for helping out wherever she was needed; and to everyone who
came out to support us. With our circumstances being what they are, we
would not be making it right now without all of you. You all mean so much
to us.
God Bless you all and thank you
Rob and Deb

Update on Mel 8/23
For the most part, Melody had a good day today.
After lunch, we headed over to Lenscrafters to see if they could make
Mel’s lenses for the frames we bought at Wal-Mart. They did. The prism
she needs sticks onto the inside of the left lens, and that had to be
ordered. It should be delivered in the next week or so and we will go
back and have Lenscrafters put it on. The doctor ordered stick-on prism
so it could be removed if it didn’t correct the double vision. They made
the lenses and had them ready in an hour. Wal-Mart warned us that
Lenscrafters was expensive but I think they must make the lenses out of
diamonds! At least our insurance will reimburse us part of the cost.
While we waited, we walked across the parking lot to Target and Melody
picked out a pretty case for her glasses. It looks like a little pink
purse. When the glasses were ready, Melody tried them on and was
surprised about how clear everything looked. We know the double vision is
caused by the tumor but the astigmatism and near-sightedness is not. I
guess she never knew that her vision was off. We didn’t either. We never
had any reason to suspect she needed glasses. She never complained and
never had any problems in school. When she ate her dinner tonight she
took the glasses off because she was afraid she might get food on them and
get them dirty.
After getting the glasses we came home to take
medicine and picked up Alli and went to see Princess Diaries 2 (thanks TJ
and Barb for the passes) and all was good until the end of the movie.
Melody started to cry that she had to go to the bathroom. I don’t know
why she cried, we had gone to the bathroom earlier in the movie with no
problems. We went home and Melody cried for the next hour and a half.
Every time I asked, she said she didn’t know why she was sad. Ever since
last Wednesday, Melody has had mood swings. Crying one minute and
laughing the next. It is very hard on us because we only want her to be
happy. I’m afraid that it has to do with cutting down the steroid to
every-other day last Tuesday. We go to the doctor tomorrow and will ask
about it and find out what we can do. After all the crying tonight, she
was back in a good mood. Alli came back over and they were both joking
around.
Tomorrow will be a busy day; we drive down to San
Diego to see Dr. Roberts
Thank you to everyone who has signed the guest book
sending us uplifting messages. Thank you for all the prayers and good
thoughts for Melody and our family and, all the other children and there
families. Please keep them coming and know that we do not take anything
for granted. We love you all.
God Bless you all and thank you
Rob and Deb
