Update 11/30 Abelina in Maui with us 2005


Today, I visited Abelina and we were able to communicate quite well. She has a lot more energy as is very eager. According to one of Doctors Dr. Lee .her wiring will be reevaluated on December 1st or 2nd by the plastic surgeon. He did agree with me that she was quite a lady and eluded to the fact that she has surpassed their expectations. She still is under observation for her lungs and the secretion buildup is improving. Also, she was able to sit up on the edge of her bed with assistance yesterday, according to her sister Hilda. That is what I understood, but some things are lost in translation. She still is on the verge of moving out of ICU, but again it is best for her to stay as long as possible.


Also, I wanted to remind you of Saturday fundraiser. It is at 5:00 at the Novato Youth Center at 680 Wilson. Not the Novato Community Center!


We look forward to seeing you there!

Great news about Abelina's progress. Our prayers are being answered.

Thanks to all of the support from Abelina's family, friends and community, we have SOLD OUT tomorrow's fundraiser. For all attending, please remember to bring your check books. We have many great auction items that will make wonderful Christmas presents. My heart has been so touched by everyone's love and support and I so look forward to seeing you all at tomorrow's dinner. God Bless, Laura

I have to tell you, I am so very grateful this space exists. When updates about Abelina vanished from the local papers, I felt frustration. Interested in how it all was progressing, Thank You for taking the time to write the ongoing story as it happens.
I send loving Greetings of the Season, prayers for healing wounds- physical and emotional.
Oh, and Joy, as much as possible!
All in Divine Order

Hello Abelina,

My name is Dominica and our children went and still go to PV together. Skye (13yrs) & Elijah (8yrs) Rossman.

I don’t know if you would remember me but I remember you well. This past year, I would sit in the car line at school, gazing off waiting for Ely to get out of school. I would see you, Abraham & Claudia going to get Angel. I admire you, hugging those kids and all of you smiling. You know they knew their mom loved them and they looked so proud of you. Your wonderful spirit and smile stands out and always left me with a sense of gratitude for my children and I want to “Thank You!” for that and for what you are teaching all of us now.

The website has been so wonderful. I feel so connected and love hearing about your incredible progress. You are truly an angel and am praying for you daily.

I went to the Fund Raiser last night. What an amazing turn out of people in our community who care and are sending love, prayers and healing your way.

Love to you and your family,

Dominica Rossman

Hi Diana,
You mentioned at the Pasta Dinner that you've been reading all of the notes I've been sending.I just wanted to tell you how seeing you with Abelina's brother, Jesse and sister Hilda touched my heart. The love you have for Abelina's children and family emanates from you. Raul, my husband's family is from Mexico and are very close and it was nice to see another family so compassionate with each other. It is rare these days.I watched the program, "The Secret" today and I am sure that Abelina can perform miracles with all the love that surrounds her. I know that you have so much support around you, but you can never have too much.I want to do whatever I can. I contacted Joanna and let her know I am willing to volunteer in whatever capacity. Also I'd like to send a few words to Hilda and I don't know how often she checks this blog so maybe you can let her know that I am writing something to her in Spanish.
Always thinking of your family and the Magana/Herrera families.
Wendy

Hola Hilda,
Te quiero decir que me dio mucho inspiracion como tu y tu familia quieres a tu hermana y sus ninos. La familia de mi esposo es asi, y se llena mi corazon a ver otra familia tan unida. Las palabras de tu hermano, Pascual, era tan emocionante. Yo se que tu hermana es una persona muy especial, se ve en el amor que Diana tiene para ella y como son sus ninos. Tu eres muy especial,tambien. Me dio mucho placer veindote y tu hermano disfrutar la cena en honor de tu hermana. Yo estaba bailando cerca de ti con mi hijo en los brazos. Quiero hacer que pueda en el futuro para ayudar a juntar mas dinero para Abelina y sus hijos. Abelina no me conoce pero mi hijo y el hijo de Diana jugaba soccer en el mismo equipo. Por favor di le a Abelina que cada minuto de cada dia, estoy pensando en ella y su familia. Espero que pronto volvera con su querida familia. Disculpame de mi espanol porque no es mi idioma.
Con mucho carino,
Wendy

Hola Hilda,
Trate de escribirte por tu correo dos veces pero no entro.Aunque no conozco a ti o tu hermana, en una manera siento un bondad con tu familia y como he estando leyendo el progreso de tu hermana y los mensajes de Diana, siento como conozco un poco su personalidad.Tambien tengo una hermana mayor qien me ha apoyado en muchas maneras como tu y Abelina. Si te de la ganas, cuentame todo que quieres compartir de tu hermana. Estoy aqui para eschuchar.No te dije, pero di una donacion a la cena y tambien despues de la Navidad quiero ver que puedo hacer para juntar mas dinero para Abelina y sus ninos. Yo se que eso es muy dificile para ti. Tienes todo mi apoyo y te ofrezco mi amistad. Mi correo es unomenoscero@aol.com. Cuidate mucho. Con Carino. Wendy
