Update on Jenene - May 31st - Day Zero

It is the day of days. Transplant day, Day Zero. All other days begin now.

It is kind of fitting that yesterday was Memorial Day as we celebrated those who gave their lives to defend our freedom and the freedom of this country. Wars just seem trivial now compared to what Jenene is going through. I know that what I just said is not true, and that comparing her struggle with Leukemia and people sacrificing their lives on the battle field are in no way comparable, but when it truly comes down to it, Charlene is 'giving life' to Jenene. She is giving of herself something that some of us can only imagine doing. I can't imagine what a sacrifice one can make during war times, but I am very proud to know that one individual cares for and loves another, as much as these two sisters do, and then I am sure that Charlene's gift to Jenene is as memorable as those people who we celebrated yesterday.

Please keep both Jenene and Charlene in your thoughts and prayers today.

Thank you
