Eden has lost another friend

I just found out that Eden's pal, Shawn Reynolds, gained his Angel wings sometime early this morning.

Eden and I have spent many a happy clinic day playing with Shawn and visiting with his parents, Paul and Tracey. Shawn has a couple of great siblings, too: Billy and Shelby. Boy, the races these kids used to have through the hallways during inpatient stay was just amazing. I don't know what was funnier, watching them act like hooligans or watching us try to keep up with them and their IV trees.

The Reynolds' are the sweetest, nicest people. I have taken support from and given support to them throughout this lousy ordeal. We've stood in the halls of J5 crying over relapses, terrifying trials to choose from and always known that the love and support was unconditional.

Please keep them in your prayers.

Fly, Shawnie, Fly! You will always own a piece of my heart.
