School Day














The radiation machine was broken today so I got to go to school all day today!! They got it fixed late in the afternoon so I still got my treatment, my puffy checks are going down so my mask wasn't so tight today, and I got in trouble for dancing again on the treatment table. Those ladies laugh at me all the time because they hear me singing and wiggling my feet to the great tunes I listen to during treatment..."Sweat home Alabama" and Kid Rock's "All summer long" usually!

Here are a few new pictures from my great party last week. My two special ladies...my girlfriend Brandy and my fabulous teacher Ms Jessica!

School was so great today. I did reading class with Ms Rita and it was great. I forgot how crazy Tanner is, he sure made my mom laugh today!!

I hope to be done with all my doctors appointments early tomorrow so I can go back to school again.

Hey guess what I am off more of my meds - all I take now is my chemo and my nausea meds before my chemo!!

Talk to you all later

Ahoy Ben,

Good choice in music. We can see why you love dancing. You might of inherited that from your Grandpa Pat. He is quite the dancer and is a well sought out dancer at our parties!

Speaking of dancing...
Q. Where can you dance in California?
A. San Fran-disco

What dance did the Pilgrims do?
The Plymouth Rock.

Why did the little kid dance on the jar of jam?
Because the top said, "Twist to open."

Adios amigo!

I'm so happy that you got to hang out at school today. I'm sure that Ms. Rita is very happy that you got to do reading class with her! I know how cute you can be when you are dancing, so I'm sure that those nurses look forward to seeing you! Those are some cute pictures of you with your ladies. They love you as much as you love them. Maybe I'll see you if you come to school again tomorrow. Good night, buddy, I'll see you later.

Hey buddy,

I'm so glad you came to school today, and i'm sure your favorite part of school was getting to eat hotdogs. We all know how much you love to eat these days. I also love your choice of songs that you listen to during radiation. I wonder who got you loving "Sweet Home Alabama?" I'm sure it wasn't me!! haha! I hope to see you tomorrow! I love you! Good night!

Hey Ben....
You may not know me, but my name is Juliana' (my grandma was the one painting faces at your birthday party). I'm in Mrs. Nicole and Mrs. Kayla's class.
It's good to hear that your doing so well and getting to take fewer meds. Tell Mrs. Jessica that you need her to record the LSU fight song for you to listen to when you're getting your treatmenat and see what she says...haha! Well I hope you get a good nights rest, so you can play with all your friends at school again.

Later,
Juliana'

Hi Ben,

This is all the babies from the baby room. We wanted to tell you that we cry alot more when you are not at school, so Ms. Rainey and Ms. Jessica really hope that you can come back to school real soon. We think that you are a pretty cool little boy even if you do like Alabama because we all like LSU. Ms. Jessica taught that Mike the Tiger says "ROAR!". Hope to see you soon.

Hiya, Ben,

Grrreat pictures, and grrrreat news about your meds and getting to go to school today. Hope it will work out tomorrow for you so you can get to school for most of the day.
Did you know that Minnie Mouse has even more outfits than Mickey? (I hope he has a pirate outfit that he wears when you're there). She has over 200!!!

Love, Megan's mom, Peg

Hi Ben -

Your school sure looks fun (and your girlfriend is cute too)! I'm glad you had a good school day! I bet they loved your pirate outfit. I'm going to have to look for one of those for me...or, hey...maybe Santa could bring me one? Have a great day! Love, Aunt Robyn

Hey Ben!

It was so good to see you at school again! I hope you had fun!!! I was reading the comments left from the babies in the baby room and i just wanted to let you know that my baby (bryson) is a TEXAS TECH and ALABAMA fan...they must have convinced him to say he was an LSU fan a couple of days ago...but i got him set straight now! :-) We all Love you and i hope you get to come visit us more often at school!

Hey Ben!
It's great to hear you got to go to school for a whole day--that must have been fun! That's fabulous that you sing along to the songs during treatment :). I hope they keep playing good tunes for you. All the animals out here keep asking about you and hope to see you again. The goats say "moo" and I'm not sure what the clouded leopards say because I don't understand their language. I often ask Kelly to translate :). Did you know that Kelly can speak clouded leopard? I hear you can, too!

Love you, buddy! See you soon.

Hiya, Ben,

It was great seeing you, Shaun, your mom and Aunt Mego today. Do you know what Mickey Mouse said when Minnie asked him if he was listening? "I'm all ears!" Ha, ha, --pretty bad, huh.

Love to all, Megan's mom, Peg

Good evening Ben! Do you think we might get some snow? It feels like it's cold enough. Wouldn't it be neat if we wake up and see snow!

What do you call a pirate that skips class?
Captain hookey!

Why does a pirate's phone go beep, beep, beep, beep?
Because he left it off the hook!

Good night. Sweet dreams!!
I love you
Mrs. Rita
