May 6th day +170

Today was a great day. I had a party and that is always fun!! I got the stem cell infusion today and it went great. Just like the bone marrow transplant, it was easy I just had to sit there and let it go into my central line. Now I just wait till it engrafts which will probably take a few more weeks. We don't know how early the gvh will show itself I will let everyone know. The donor is an amazing man, he spent six hours at the bone marrow clinic yesterday and got a shot everyday for 5 days before the graft was taken. Wow, I can't wait to meet him! I got some Narnia toys and I am so excited for the movie to come out. If you have not read the books I would read them they are the coolest! Well it was a neat day, I am still amazed at the things these doctors can do. Thanks for all the prayers.

Love Trent

funney.luke my brother is a show -off.

Dear Trent,
Are you feeiing any better? I hope
you are. I am home schooled because when I moved to Montana I moved in the school year and my mom didn't want to put me into a new school so late in the year. For my ninth birthday I got my ears pierced, too. We got flower earrings. On my birthday I got to go to my dad's work, play games and have soda; then we went to lunch we were about to go to the icecream shop but it was closed for lunchbreak.

We live in Chinook, Montana. It is at the top of Montana. Chinook is a very small town. It is about as big as my Grandma Burgess's neighborhood in Salt Lake. It has one small grocery store, one elementary school, one small library, one gas station, and one post office. We have to go to the post office to get our mail because they don't have mailboxes at the houses. We have one Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints church and lots of other different kinds of churches. We normally go to Havre, which is about 20 miles from Chinook, to get our groceries. They have a Walmart and a Kmart in Havre, but not in Chinook. It is fun living here, but I miss my family and cousins and friends.
Love, Danielle

I'm so glad you have enjoyed the Narnia adventures as much as I did. I am also looking forward to the new movie, but was disappointed in the last one and hope this one will be better. Please get well soon. We are all praying for you!!
