Submitted by Robert on Wed, 02/10/2010 - 07:39Yesterday, I came home and posted this on Facebook, "45 minutes at CVS...to get one of my 2 prescriptions and a blank stare....then another 15 to fill the "blank stare" prescription...only to get home and realize they subsituted the original prescription...call CVS back to ask if they know about her immune suppression medication and checked on any counter indications with the substitution before filling it only to get...No....Let me check on that for you..Please do."...
I don't normally get so annoyed. I don't know why I couldn't shake this "feeling" but I was not comfortable last night.

Submitted by Robert on Mon, 02/08/2010 - 09:10Still sick over here...I would love for my entire family to be healthy for my birthday...it would be a lovely gift...it doesn't even have to come wrapped in a bow...
I have taken every blanket away from Savvy. That is what she keeps trying to wipe her boogies on and it has caused a terrible rash like burn on her face. She is like Linus in the Peanuts comic with the blankets lately. She looks like she has a mustache...still the cutest little girl in the world and now she is taking over the cutest little mustache girl in the world category too!

Submitted by Robert on Thu, 02/04/2010 - 14:47My Boogie little Warrior Princess is still sick...oh those boogies...if only she could figure out how to blow her nose. Savvy would rather hold the tissue to Buddy's nose (our dog) and tell him to blow...hmmmmm....
I REALLY want her to get better (for the obvious reason)..we are planning on attending the Walk for Wishes Walkathon - it is a Make-A-Wish fundraiser. Savvy was invited to attend and I think she will have a lot of fun!
Well, Elmo is on the t.v...she is focused on him today...she has watched her Elmo and then Belle DVDs just about all day. Better news tomorrow I hope!

Well, fortunately by Friday night we seem to be feeling better as a family and then Saturday we actually felt dare I say "normal" which was wonderful because we were able to go and serve dinner at the Ft. Lauderdale Ronald McDonald House...oh....can't tell you how familiar the "zombie" look in the Mami's eyes I met were....
More Pics!

I just love Disney...Savvy did get sick at Disney this trip...threw up pretty bad but the First Aid station at Epcot was so nice. Okay...back to my blanket and tea...I have an episode of "Clean House" to watch ... wishing and hoping they would come over this evening to my house...

Submitted by Robert on Wed, 01/27/2010 - 15:59We came home from Disney and Give Kids the World this weekend and then got sick. Savvy got some boogies and we couldn't resist our savvylicious kisses boogies and all....we ended up sick. I went down first and then Super Papi being a copy cat went down next! We are still sick...well...when I say "we" I am not including the W.P. she is doing great! I am miserable and my little immune suppressed child just wants to play trains and princesses...poor thing has been cooped up all week...hopefully tomorrow will be a better day for me and I can take her out.
(2 years ago I was watching my W.P. recuperate from a liver transplant at the Ronald McDonald House in Jersey....let me tell ya....I will take a happy, healthy Warrior Princess at HOME with a sick Mami ANY DAY!!! I LOVE NORMAL life...just love it!!)
The Last Day of our Wish Trip
Submitted by Robert on Fri, 01/15/2010 - 22:06It is Monday morning and we are due to check out of GKTW....oh....if they would just allow us to move there...well...I guess that would be Mami's "Wish". We woke up a bit later then we expected so we asked for the breakfast car to come by. YEAH, the breakfast car! If you can't get to the Gingerbread House for breakfast they will bring breakfast to your villa!! Have I mentioned how magical this place is?! And it is fully run by volunteers...angels is what they are called! Everyone a Wish family comes across is a volunteer. There are few paid employees and they are behind the scenes.
Savvy runs out in her PJ's to grab some breakfast...how we managed to keep her from going straight to the playground is beyond me! The playground is a lifesize version of the Candyland game....and you guessed it on Sunday they knocked on the door and Savvy got a Candyland game...but not just any Candyland game ... an official Give Kids the World version of the game!!!

Submitted by Robert on Fri, 01/15/2010 - 10:45After another awesome day at the Magic Kingdom we head back to the Villa.
Savvy falls asleep passes out in the car. As we get closer and closer to GKTW I start getting antsy because I want Savvy to wake up so Ms. Merry can tuck her in...and Robert wants her to rest (afterall it has been a very fun and exhausting week)...yes...I know he is the better parent..WHATEVER! So, LUCKY for me the Candyland party had started at the Villa and since the Candyland playground was in front of the villa well....the music and some gentle nodging from Mami woke Savvy up.
Look Savvy the Gingerbread man is dancing....lets go check them out!
