About Me

My photo
Bakersfield, CA, United States
Hans was a busy, happy, sweet and fearless three year old when he was diagnosed with Neuroblastoma. He fought his disease like a "gladiator" for nearly 6 years. Hans was an animal lover to his core. He was 'guarded' at home by his three cats, Black, Orange and Cotton. He also had his Golden Retriever, Honey, to keep him company. Hans enjoyed swimming, biking, gardening, grilling (he had his very own grill!), horseback riding, playing video games, building Legos, and flipping between Nickelodeon, Cartoon Network and Animal Planet. Hans loved all members of his family and he was a loyal friend. He had to go through a lot of treatment in his life. But Hans powered through it. His attitude was let's get this done! His motivation was always to get back home, to his family, pets, favorite foods and pool.

Making a Mark Art Show







Here are some pictures from today's Making A Mark Art Show at TCH. Elle's "The Right White Rose" painting was one of many beautiful pieces of artwork on display. After the show we went downtown to eat at the original Mama Ninfa's restuarant. It claims to be the home of the original fajita in 1959!
On a more serious note: A fellow patient at TCH, Haleigh, needs your prayers this week. This little girl is fighting relapsed Neuroblastoma. She just got back from her Make A Wish trip to be admitted to TCH. Her tumors are spreading, her organs are starting to shut down and she has now been taken off chemo. Thanks for praying with us.
Love, Lara

Elle, your picture is wonderful. Do I get to make a copy of it this weekend (and one for Grandma Stephanie too)? Hans, I'm liking the hair! We'll keep your little friend and family in our prayers.

See you all on Thursday!
Love Grandma Kathy and of course Grandpa Dale too xoxo

Elle Picasso Weberling - your picture is awesome, just like your other artwork at home! Tell Grandma Kathy to make me a copy for me, too!

Hans - You're looking really handsome with that hair. But, I thought you looked really handsome without hair, too. Good your hair is growing back to keep you warm this winter!

Love and prayers to all,
Aunt Holly
