Hi!
Would you believe it totally worked out? They totally fast tracked us on 9 and we were "outta there" BEFORE noon! The roads were clear and quiet, there was no gas to be found, but I had enough! I am happy we're all "up home" as Hans likes to say, me, Kev, Elle, Hans, Honey, and the cats - Black, Orange and Cotton.
We left a floor full of patients and nurses down in the Med Center. It's pretty scary! But I'm sure they'll all be safe. Those nurses sure are brave! They're leaving their families to 'ride out' the storm. I know they'll be safe in the building (hope hope hope) but not very minute will be a hurricane party. The plan is to pull patients mattresses out into the hall tonight, to keep them safe from possible broken glass.
Kevin has secured things around here, and cleaned out the downstairs closet, where I guess we're prepared to spend the night if need be! Elle and I made a stop to get more beading supplies on the way home, so we should be able to keep busy.
Thanks for checking on us.

We've got all of Hans' prescriptions and we're glad he's mostly just enjoying feeling well and his counts aren't at risk to drop too low...
About Me
- Hans Weberling
- 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.

Hi Hans!
I have been thinking about you and your family. :) I am happy to hear you were able to get all of your "magic water" and get home safely! We all missed you Thursday. Be safe, and I hope to see you very soon.

So glad to read this news! Being home is the best medicine all around.

Hope you have a safe, uneventful night tonight and the storm doesn't last too long into tomorrow. Will be keeping posted through Kathy since she's over here to do the Federal Way market with me tomorrow. Love, hugs and prayers!
Love Aunt Holly and Uncle Michael
So glad to hear that the session at TCH went well and you were able to leave for a home yet a little further away from this mess of a storm. I'm tracking Ike like a mad thing... between you and a great uncle who is currently harboring his sailboat at Port A. I'm all over it. Watch the dog and cats! Animals sense the power of a storm long before their humans so follow their lead. Mucho love -- Erin
Hi! I am so pleased you're "up home" together, snug, safe, and in great spirits!
It sounds like the storm will be in your area in about 8 hours...I know Kevin has worked hard preparing for this storm.
Thank you for posting your latest status!
Love and hugs to you and the beasties!

I just heard from Lara: They are ok, they don't have any water and a tree fell on the house.
I think that all of us who are not in Texas should send some sort of assistance to them. I know that the last time a tree fell on their house they had a really difficult time coupled with Hans' chemo. So I'm sending a gas card or a restaurant card to them today.
Best,
Roxie
So glad to here you all are ok. Sorry to hear about your house. Kathy has been keeping me informed.I hope you can get repairs done quickly. I know this is one more headache you don't need. I'm keeping you in my prayers. Love, Cindy
