Good afternoon everyone!

Got the Transit back from Rollx after 27 days in the shop waiting for parts. Miss the convenience of the minivan loaner, but that's about it. I'm not sure if other conversions are any better, but these things ride and drive like crap.

Good morning everyone! Cool photos Chris, looks like you guys had a blast.

We're heading out this afternoon. So far I'm beyond grateful for all that Make-A-Wish has done. They're putting us up at a hotel in Bloomington this evening, then we're all flying direct to Orlando tomorrow morning. We'll be down there until next Tuesday, then coming back north. They're covering everything...park passes, accommodations, rental car, and they even sent us a check for expenses while we're down there. Definitely going to be donating to Make-A-Wish in the future, it's really an amazing organization.

On the downside, we heard from Hannah's neurosurgeon yesterday. She went down for an MRI Sunday morning because she's been having repetitive headaches. Turns out the pseudomeningocele that formed after her decompression never went away, and this pocket of fluid behind her brain is likely the cause of her issues. Not emergent, but in the near future it's likely she'll be having surgery to install a shunt to drain this pocket of fluid.

Enough of my drama, hope everyone has a great Tuesday!

Have a safe fun trip. Sorry to hear about that problem with Hannah but at least they know why and how to take care of it.
