Returned from Little Rock yesterday. Our daily dose is up to 383 mg.
During our drive yesterday, we passed the tornado devastation in Atkins, Arkansas. Homes reduced to rubble, and a church that had been destroyed. Madie saw blue tarps on roofs and said, "Mom, it looks like it did after Hurricane Wilma when we lived in Florida." Our hearts go out to those who lost homes and roofs to the tornados!
On a lighter note, Madie was pleased to see her friend Annie at ACH and they spent their time browsing through a jet catalogue and dreaming of owning one so they could fly to Arkansas instead of drive. The moms smiled and agreed, "that would be nice."

The Peanut Odyssey Continues....
Hello Everyone!
We missed alot of posting due to X-mas. We promise to keep everyone more up to date. We continue our trips to Little Rock every other than Sunday & Monday. Madie is now taking a dosage that is the equivalent of one peanut per day. We are mixing her dose in chocolate pudding each morning. She thinks it's great that she eats pudding in the am. Soon the dosage will be such that we will have to start putting it in a pancake or cook them into muffins, so we are looking for recipe ideas!
Madie recently won her school Geography Bee and we are waiting to hear if she will be going to State. She had to take a written test that was sent to the National Geographic Society, if she scores high enough on that she will head to State Championship. Yesterday she was first runner up in the school Spelling Bee, so she will be going to the State Championships at OU in Norman for that. In addition to her geography and spelling prowess, she received straight A+'s in spite of missing 13 days of school in the Fall semester. Way to go Madie!
The staff at Arkansas Children's Hospital continues to be amazingly supportive and kind. We look forward to our visits and seeing new friends.
