Happy Thanksgiving
We just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! It is Thanksgiving Day here already and all of you are still sleeping ... weird. I'm organizing a Thanksgiving dinner trip for anyone who wants to go from the hospital. We will be going to the Outback Restaurant for our Thanksgiving dinner ... none of us trust how a turkey might be prepared here. We figure steak is our best bet ... lol.
This Thanksgiving I want to give thanks for everyone who has touched our lives in our quest to bring Shawna to China ... we couldn't have done it without each and every one of you! I/we are thankful to live in such a caring community, great friends, and the greatest family anyone could ask for!
As you all sit down to your turkey dinners today, please include Shawna in your prayers and remember how jealous we are of you today ... we get no turkey ... lol. And Gary, with a whimper, says "no pies" ... he does so love all the baking I usually do ... oh well.
Thank you all again for caring so deeply for Shawna and being a part of our lives!

Good morning, it's 10:00am here in the states. Just wanted to write & tell Shawna good luck with stem cell treatment #4 on Tuesday. Hope all goes well & hope everyone is okay. We miss you all,& can;t wait until you get home.I probably won't write tomorrow because I have to work in Balto. & won't get home until around 9:00pm because I go to Visit with James, so needless to say I get home late, but visiting him is worth it. Take care &please update us to let us know you all are okay. LOVE & PRAYERS THE SMITH'S
