July 11th

Well today has been a fun day. The doctor is happy with how things are going so far. I started getting a rash today and they don't know why so they had to raise some of the medications back up. My dad had to go into work today so my Aunt Amber stayed with me this afternoon while mom took care of some things. We are late in writing because dad had to take his computer to work. Aunt Amber and I had a marker fight and mom does not know if she wants to leave me with anyone else again. I ended up with marker all over my body. When I'm not tired I have fun giving the nurses a hard time and they all think I'm crazy. Thanks everyone. Love, Trent.

Trent,
The Silly Belly Dance was the highlight of the evening last night! For those people reading this that were not in the room last night to witness it, Trent used his markers to color a face on his belly, complete with a mouth on his belly button, Trent jumped on his bed to do a "Silly Man" dance and sing with his belly button. This started at about 10:30pm and all the nurses on the floor had to come see this crazy guy dancing on his bed.

Tiffany you will have to post the video on the blog so everyone can see how brave and good spirited this little man is!

Trent, Russell and I will come visit you again soon. Your bravery is an inspiration to me. Stay strong and Remember what the Hulk says,

"HULK SMASH LUKEMIA!!!"

LOVE YOU LOTS,

Brian

HEY! Belly Dancing?!?!?!?! I'm so sorry I missed it - Did your mom & dad join in??? I think you should have a belly dancin' dance off!! :O) See how many nurses you can get to join you!!! LOL It sounds like you are doing amazingly well - and that is AWESOME!! Of course, would we expect anything else from a tough guy?!?!? Well, we can't wait to come and visit with you - I'm afraid I would have to opt out on the belly dancing - a bowl of jelly isn't really attractive - but maybe there is something else we can do...Be sure to let us know when you are up for visitors - in fact - Risi and I will be in Primarys on Wed. the 18th - check and see if it would be ok if we stop in that day to visit - just let us know k? We can come sooner too - if you get bored. Have your mom call us & let us know when the coast is clear! And I'll check in that morning too to see how you are doing! Well, gotta get back to work - :o( But you have a great day!!! Sending hugs!!! We love you guys!

Trent,

I do have to say that yesterday was one of the best days I have had in a long time! I couldn't get all of the marker off today, did you? I can't wait to come and sit with you again. I know your mom might not want me to, but we will just have to kick her out of the room when I come again right! Mike is really excited to come and sleep over with you on friday. Hopefully he will be finished with your pirate picture so he can bring it up to you.
Trent, we love you so much and we know that you are going to beat this yucky thing called Lukemia! We are praying for you. Have a great day and be nice to your nurses!
We love you,
Mike, Amber, Payton & Xoie

Brian & Russell,

Hey last night was awesome!! I was glad that you enjoyed my silly belly dance I do anything to keep me entertained! The markers would not come off in the shower this morning so every nurse and Dr. that checked my stomach today got the story and laughed with me again. I did not go to sleep until 1:00 am. Mom says that she can't handle it anymore she is to tired!! But good news is that They will not wake me up every two hours anymore only every four so I am very excited. let me know how Harry Potter is! I love that saying "Hulk smash Leukemia" it's my new motto!!

Love Trent

Braithwaite Family,

Right now Mom & Dad say no kids unless I am kind of sad. So Mom will call you next time I am sad and let you bring Autumn up. I would love to teach Autumn a few tricks, I'm sure she has some of her own!!

Love Trent

Olson gang,

The Belly Dancing is a way to totally show off for the nurses.
I showed my nurse's they laughed. The charge nurse is a man and he happened to come in when I was doing it. I stopped and dropped on my bed and would not show him mainly cuz he was not cute! ha ha I ended up showing him he just laughed! Mom is going to get mad at my Aunt Amber for starting the marker fight in the first place, but I secretly hope she doesn't it was so fun!!! Why does Sharissa have to go to Primary's on Wed? Call my mom and talk to her about stopping by, my levels are going to go down farther in the next few days so it will be day to day! How is Amber doing in Nevada? Are they going to visit soon? Talk to you soon.

Love Trent

Joy & Family,

Thanks for the note you left with Jen Goodrich it helped a lot!! The blog is awesome I thank my brother Alan everyday for setting it up for us!! How is the family? Trent is almost done with chemo thank goodness, although I can't complain he has taken it like a super hero. He is amazing.

Love Tiff
