Things are lookin up!


I almost hate to title this,for fear of jinxing our girl, but we must rejoice and be thankful for even the smallest of blessings!


Today, she kept lunch and dinner down! Hip Hip Hooray!

Recently, when she had trouble keeping her food down, there was no nausea, just the tumor disallowing space in her tummy. Today she beat the "beast" and she's gonna continue to get the best of him!

Her hemoglobin is a 10.3 after her last transfusion and her Neutropenia level was a .9(needs to be a 2 or better to not have restrictions on room and visitors). She also took a stroll around the hall with her nifty little mask to protect her from any harmful germs. She got another dose of Factor 7 to help prevent blood loss and will continue to get shots of Neupagen to build up her white blood cells.
The bottom line is, she is NOT deterred and continues to fight with strength that I most of the time cannot find!
She puts us all to shame... NO doubt about it!

We are adding a picture of Robynn with her "Prayer Quilt" that was put in motion by Kelly and Brandy Brown...aka Haines/Starr. Kelly sewed every piece with hope and love and Brandy bound it in prayer! I am keeping this picture as my "wallpaper" on my phone so that I am reminded of our girls perfect smile, continuous battle and unfaltering faith! I ask you to do the same!

Robynn will be constantly wrapped in God's goodness and our unending prayer!


Take that!!!

Love you all!

The quilt is almost as beautiful as you... I just thought of something that would bring a big smile to your angelic face. "go ahead try it, I just got the recipe for this dip."
your next question-"Ah is there mayo in that?" :):):)
love you- Tina

WOW! I am sure glad to hear the good news. I had a long talk with God when sewing the quilt and I think I he knows we mean business. You are soooo beautiful and just know you are in all our thoughts and payers. My mom was on neupagen while she battled ovaian and breast cancer. It was a neccessity and pushed her levels up and we were able to visit her again and be a family. I know it will do the same for you. Just remember if my mom can beat the beast(twice) you can...NO DOUBT! Your positive attitude and amazing lust for life will be the ticket. We love you soooooo much!
Hang in there!
XXXXXXXOOOOOOO!

To say we are consumed with thoughts of Robbi would be an understatement! We continue to pray, hope, wish, beg, borrow and steal for her to get better and go home. xoxoxox, PLM

Dear Aunt Robbie. I know you will get through this with your courage and strength. I will pray for you at school and before I go to bed. Hope you feel better :) kernan

Dear Aunt Robbie, I am praying for you every night, and I look forward to seeing you when you get home and get better. ~Liam~

Dear Robbyn, The candles are burning for you as always. You are in my heart. I know you will get through this because of your strength. I admire your courage and love you very much. Love Sylvia.

Dear Robynn,

I'm so glad to hear some good news. My Sunday school class prayed for you again today and we'll keep praying. Shelby really likes Hailey and therefore has a special place in her heart for you. She made a card for you that I'll forward and talks about you a lot. I know she prays for you as well. I pray for patience and strength for you and your family and that you may never forget that Jesus is always right there by your side.

Love,
Heidi Kelso

Hi Robynn,
Your man Brian is my brother, keeper and mentor at work. You and I may have spoken once or twice on the phone, but I have heard sooo much about you and your beautiful family. My wife Robin and I also have a son and daughter, Brandon 15and Lauren 11.
I am thankful for who you are because your love that fulfills Brian shines through him to every one he meets.
You have one incredibly blessed family.
I know you are experiencing the amazing, healing calm from above that will continue to empower your
healing.

We'll meet soon,

Tony

Robynn -

You amaze me. It was wonderful to see your smiling face when I logged on to the website before going to bed. You look great (as always) and it is a comfort to see that smile. Take care.
Hugs from,

Hi Robynn, I had what I thought was a great idea. Seeing as you can't have flowers in your room I was going to paste a picture of some tulips here. (I think you said last year they were your favorites) but I could not do it. Not sure if it can't be done or operator error. Probably operator error. Not very computer savvy.
You look FANNNNNNNNNNNNNNNTASTIC!
You are a true inspiration to us all. We prayed for you in church today along with many others I am sure.
Keep on fighting, you are doing it.
Your in my thoughts and prayers always.
Emma (AKA Jordans mommy)
