12th Treatment
Makenzie got her 12th treatment this last Wednesday. She is doing about the same... nothing really new to report. We are still tapering the steroids. We found out she will definitely get a 3 week break (that is skipping two appointments) from chemo after the 14th treatment.

Last night Makenzie and family (minus Brayden, he went to Grandma Betty's) went to a Diamondback's game at Chase Field with tickets donated by the Phyllis Foundation and Phoenix Children's Hospital. We got pretty decent seats in the Diamond level. They even threw in food money so everyone got to stuff their face with yummy expensive food. You can see from the pictures that Kenzie and Carson enjoyed their pizza. Everyone had a great time and the DBacks even won the game 5-2. Brandon Webb pitched a great game. It was fun to see him pitch.
Toy Drive
Makenzie's friend from church, Alex Peugnet, and Makenzie are collecting toys for Phoenix Children's Hospital as a service project. Alex is doing this service project as one of her projects for her young women's group. These toys are given to children who are patients at the hospital to make their stays a little more enjoyable. Anyone interested in donating toys email wcmtlmaz@yahoo.com and we'll let you know how. The toys do have to be new but they don't need to be expensive. We've found stuff at the dollar store. Many kids enjoy crayons, coloring books, art supplies, etc. as a way to pass their time in the hospital. And many of those items are on cheap right now if you watch the back to school sales.

I think it's a great thing you are doing by collecting toys for other children. I know your project will be a great success.

Makenzie, Looks like fun at the ball game. Glad to hear you get to take a break between treatments this time. Great job with the toy drive. I am so proud of you.
Hi Makenzie: I enjoyed having lunch with you and visiting. Did you have fun at the birthday party? I am glad your treatments are going well and you get a rest from them. We love you. It is great you can do something for others by collecting toys. I am really proud of you. Love to your mom,dad,Carson, and Brayden
Makenzie....I never get to eat Pizza at the ball game...I have to work two jobs just to get in...ooohhh and good seats too....what a treat! Glad you had fun. I am going today to pick up some toys for your toy drive. I am so proud of you and you are such an example to all the other kids out there on summer break wondering what toys THEY are going to get....this is a great way to teach my children about service. THANKS MAKENZIE...I LOVE YOU!
