Interviews!!

My husband had his interview with Telemundo this past Monday.  It was quite exciting.  The woman who interviewed my husband and the camera man traveled 2 1/2 hours from Manhattan, NY.  They were here for about  3 1/2 hours.  Of course, I did not understand a word they were saying.  It was all in Spanish.  My husbands mother and sister were here so they interpreted to me what was being said.  At the end of the interview my husband drew a picture of the interviewer.  She enjoyed that.  The interview will be aired Feb. 8 at 6:30 pm on Telemundo.

On Monday evening my husband received a phone call from Stan Simpson.  He has a show called the Stan Simpson Show on Fox 61.  He is doing an interview on my husband this afternoon.   Stan saw the article about my husband in the newspaper and wanted to do an interview.  This has been a great and exciting time for my husband.  He has had many ups and downs with his artwork.  He is hoping this will change everything for him as far as his artwork goes.  Alana has spurred him on.  She has taught him to just keep persevering.  I will let you know when this show will be aired.

Either Feb. 24 or 25 we will be headed to Mt Sinai Children's Hospital in NY for Alana's Memorial Service.  I'm looking forward to seeing all the doctors and nurses again, but am a little apprehensive about re-hashing everything and seeing the places in the hospital where Alana was.  I don't know if I can go back to the ICU.  I have been praying about all this and I will, without a doubt need the Lord's strength.

The nurses and doctors at Mt Sinai need a chance to put closer to Alana's death.  She was at Mt Sinai for about 7 months.  They were like Alana's second family.  When I was not able to be there, many of the nurses treated her like she was their own daughter.  It made my husband and I feel comfortable when we would have to leave her for a few days at a time throughout her stay in the hospital.

I am continuing to ask for prayers for Eithene Rose and Noah.  These are families that I have been following through blogs and CaringBridge since Alana was at Mt Sinai.  Their children also have many health issues.  Please keep them in your prayers.


Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles,
 bubbles everywhere.
My mommy blows me bubbles,
 that fall gently on my hair.

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles,
 bubbles that tickle my nose.
I love to watch the bubbles,
 float high and then sink low.

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles,
 bubbles that I can pop.
With my little fingers,
  I can make the bubbles stop.

Bubbles, bubbles, bubbles,
 bubbles were my favorite toy.
Whenever mommy blew bubbles,
 my heart sang with joy.

Love Mama
I miss blowing bubbles to you girly, girl.

God is good.
