Friends can move Disney

Caitlyn has been surrounded by so many friends and loved ones these past few weeks. With cards and flowers. We are amazed at all the talented children that have made cards for Caitlyn and her brothers. Thank you to everyone who has brought a meal and who are still signed up to bring meals. Thank you for respecting our wishes and simply leaving the cards in the mail box and not calling. It has made it easier for us to concentrate on our task at hand. That is keeping Caitlyn comfortable and trying to determine what it is she needs as she is not able to talk but a whisper if that. We have the hospice nurse come each day and check on her. She say's her heart and pulse still sound strong so that is good news I just wish she had the strength to talk. We will start her on IV fluids tomorrow because she is not able to swallow. I hope this will give her a little energy since she may be dehydrated slightly.

Well one of Caitlyn's wishes was to go to Disney after she saved up $100 this would have been her 3rd time in a 12 month period. Well she has made her goal however since she is not able to travel her dear friends have brought Disney to her. If anyone can move Disney it's Krista Budzisz and Lynn Klein with the help of all their connections. I don't know all the details on how they did this all but they expressed that they had a lot of people that wanted to jump on board and help out as soon as they asked. So I just want to thank Krista,Lynn, and all their helpers who donated or sponsored something for this Disney extravaganza for Caitlyn. I know this will put a hug sparkle in her eyes and give her sweet dreams. Angels are smiling at all of you tonight.

Caitlyn already had a small taste of Disney to day while sitting in her Royal throne made my Joann and Lynn she was greeted by Bell, Cinderella,SnowWhite,Sleeping Beauty as they read her the story of Cinderella. I could tell she was thrilled to have them in her house.

Now for the big event. It will take place in our front yard rain or shine RADIO DISNEY will be outside of our house at about 10:15 a.m. There will also be some Disney characters that will be stopping by to say hi to Caitlyn in side the house and once they are done they will come out side and talk with the children that stop by. I hope once Caitlyn has talked with each character she will be up to coming out side for a moment to say hi, but if not please enjoy the music that RADIO DISNEY will be playing. She will be thrilled just to know you are out their and having fun. We do ask that once the RADIO DISNEY truck leaves that the guest also leave so we can let Caitlyn rest. It should go till about 11 or 11:30.

Thank you everyone for showering our daughter with your love,
The Churak Family
