Keep Phighting!

Just a quick update to say that Kristine is doing great. She enjoyed the floor bike pedels so much the other day in physical therapy that she has started going down the hall to the "gym" to pedal away in the morning. She also had her staples removed from her head. They looked a lot more intimidating in her head than out.

I also thought I'd give a shout out to the Philadelphia Phillies after their big World Series win. The car horns were sounding off all night in the city. It seems like it's a good year to be in Philly and overcome the odds. Keep up the good philly phight 'stine, we're all rooting for you.

  2. Hi,

    So glad you are doing better.I miss seeing you and RuRu in the morning. We will have to miss handing out candy on Halloween, but The drive- by treaters will just have to wait. We will be in Tampa for a wedding this weekend(and making fun of the locals: Go Phillies!. I will come to visit and beat you at Yatzee next week!

  7. Hello Kristine, I am Ericas` younger sister, Trina. I just wanted to thank you for being such a dear person to my sister. She and I are about a year apart. What can I say to you, the person who has done so much, from running a fundraiser for Erica, to being there to share with her in her pain. Thank you just doesn't seem to cut it. I pray for the cure of cancer for you both.Just know that I think you are a very strong person, who is loved and cherished by people,even people you have never met, like me.

  8. As the Phillies celebrate their victory with a parade down Broad Street today, I can't help but think there should be parades and fireworks for Kristine!!! Even though it's no surprise that she continues to bring her A game every single day--that's just who she is--I think it still deserves celebration!
    Much love,
    Kira

  11. By the way the comments you made about your GI Jane hair cut, you genuinely looked beautiful with short hair, there are not many women that can carry of such a short hair cut but boy you certainly did, not only are you beautiful on the outside but inside too.
