WOW everyone!  I am overwhelmed with all of your kind words and donations.  Julie called me first thing this morning and we started to cry.  We both felt so encouraged by all of your responses to the BLOG. Over 500 views in just two days! 

We will keep you updated on how she is doing in Panama.  She said she has purchased her airline tickets (THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR DONATIONS!) and is REALLY looking forward to gaining some improvement from the procedure.  She is making arrangements for an apartment to stay in while in Panama, we'll keep you posted. 

It amazes me that when there is someone in need, everyone can come together so quickly and make a huge difference.  Julie feels so blessed and is touched by your outpouring of love and support.  Keep it coming! We still have a long way to go to help ease the burden of the cost of her trip and procedure.  She really could use our support in every way right now, and this is a simple way we can make a difference.

Thank you for helping us!   May God bless you all for your kindness.  Love, Jen
