Another beautiful spring day in Utah. Ron and I have enjoyed a walk this morning, and just spending time visiting with Grandma and Grandpa Heywood as they celebrate their 52nd anniversary. We enjoyed having all the family stay with us this weekend for Sarah’s, (Jill’s oldest daughter) baptism. It was a very nice service. Marie gave a talk on the steps to baptism, and Savanna gave a talk on the Holy Ghost. We enjoyed visiting with all of the Hansens that attended the baptismal service. They are such a great family. We are happy that we can be related to them through Jill, (my younger sister).
I was thrilled that my very close friends from Skyline High School came to visit this past week. The food they brought was excellent. We loved the Olive Garden Meal. The lasagna was delicious. The paper crane tree made by the Japanese club was thoughtful. The banner and DVD from the student body officers brought tears to my eyes. I am grateful for all of the thoughts and prayers offered in my behalf from these wonderful people. All of these gestures help raise my spirits.
Our ward continues to be a strong support. We continue to get meals from families in our neighborhood. More then once we have had our yard taken care of. The Elders have taken over Ron’s church responsibilities. Thanks to those who helped arrange the baptism on Saturday. I was glad that I was able to attend the event. But it did tire me out.
I continue to feel very weak. I am eating well, and keeping my food down, so that is a blessing. I haven’t gotten on a scale lately to see if I am gaining weight, but Ron is encouraged and feels that I am looking stronger.
Savanna started her last class at BYU this week, and is babysitting Emmry for Steve and Sheree. She finished her first season as an assistant coach for the Bingham lacrosse team. Marie also finished her lacrosse season this week in an exciting game against Olympus.

It was great to be with you over the weekend. We had such a nice time with everyone. Heather had a blast teaching the girls the "hoe down show down." We love you very much.
It sounds like you are doing well if you can keep that food down. YEAH! It was really nice to hear your dad bear his testimony on SUnday. It was wonderful! You are so loved by so many!
Take care :)
Hi Jolene. It's Kelly Holman. It's so good to hear that you are out and about and have family and friends around you. I just want to say that I think you are a really beautiful person. When I was growing up, I always thought of you and Ron as pretty much the coolest couple ever because you are so cute and both of you hilarious. I'm just really, really sad that you have to go through all of this. I wish I knew something to say to help you feel better (I don't). Just know that I think you are awesome.
