Madeline is feeling okay but just wasn't up to visitors this weekend. I think spending 24/7 in a room with us made her just want to be alone and enjoy her own room. We will go back to Medical City tomorrow but, without getting our hopes up too much, this should be a shorter stay. Hoping to be home Thursday or early Friday. Then she will have two weeks to recover.
Thank you to all of our friends who helped me get in touch with Madi Davis, who is on The Voice right now. I guess I am the only person in McKinney who doesn't know her. I am in now contact with her family and we are cheering her on...so thank you!
A few of Madeline's soccer teammates got to meet Lauren Holiday from the Women's World Cup team on Saturday. Emily gave her a bracelet and even got a team picture signed for Madeline. We have the most thoughtful friends!!
Madeline's spirits were also lifted by a very special delivery of Blue Bell ice cream from the Connolly family on Sunday. What a fun and totally unexpected surprise!!
For those of you that ordered "Madeline Strong" t-shirts, they should show up next week. We sold so many they had to push the date back by a few days.
I love sharing all the pictures our friends and family are posting wearing the Madelinestrong bracelets. Some of you are so creative!

Thank you for every prayer and good thought. We are tired, and missing our old life, and worried about Madeline. Please pray that we can feel strong and optimistic, that this week of chemo is uneventful, and that Madeline feels lifted up by all the people praying for and thinking of her.
