Here she is -- ready to 'break out'. They do the crepe paper across the door, so that it is a 'coming out into the world' type of thing. Course, there were about 8 or 9 people standing on the other side of the doors, with cans of silly string, waiting to get her! <G> In all fairness though, they *did* give her a can as well... |
They asked Shay what she wanted at her party -- some kids have pizza, some have cake, some have burgers. She wanted cake -- so she got it. They had ordered one for yesterday but when she didn't break out, the nurses ate it <G>. They accused Shay of making them fat. |
Katie, the child life specialist,who set up the party. She is the one Shay blasted with the syringe full of water. |
Paula, Shay's Physical Therapist (or Terrorist, as she is fondly known around the hospital). She was a riot - although a klutz. She slammed her thumb in Shay's door and taught her how to lose at gin. |
Shay and Doctor Gretchen Eames -- our lifesaver. She is wonderful -- I can't say enough good things about her. Oh, and she has *really* good aim with a can of Silly String! <G> |
Looking through her 'loot'. She has some very interesting makeup now... <G> |
Relaxing and having fun. This is the best picture I could find to end on... That smile makes it all worth it. Shay, I love you... |
