Saturday Morning #2

Beto and my mother drove to Mexico City yesterday to meet regarding the chemotherapy treatment. They decided they will administer the chemo in San Luis Potosi. They will begin as planned this week, Monday most likely. The cost MAY be lower is San Luis, allowing Beto to possibly receive more treatments (maybe 1 to 2 more) with the donations than he would in Queretaro if they offer the price break. We currently have enough funds for 5 to 6 treatments and he needs 8 to 9. 

Please feel free to email or call Beto, as he needs the encouragement right now.  They will be home all weekend preparing for next week. 

I hope everyone enjoys their weekend.

Much Love,

Natalie

Good Morning,

I am really excited to let you all know that two merchants in particular have offered to donate 10% of their sales for a period of time, in their store and online, to Beto! 

Beto and my mother's dear friend Rachael Daniel hand makes children's clothing. Her website is www.hyenacart.com/mainstreet. Once you get to the site you click on MY HATTY. Her things are adorable! 

Rachel Horn Interiors, located in Aurora, is donating items for the silent auction in September as well as 10% of sales. Her website is www.rachelhorn.com. Her beautiful world interiors are fabulous!

Thank you so much to Rachael and and Rachel for doing this for Beto!

Good Morning,

I wanted to let everyone know that the fundraiser will be in September as opposed to August 19th. We have had an overwhelming response from artists and local businesses who want to be involved and there needs to be more time for planning. I will let you all know when a date has been set. The fundraiser and silent auction will still be help at the Galeria Pergola. I am really excited about this and think it will be a wonderful evening! Thank you all for your interest and support in getting it together.

Beto had a difficult day yesterday. I think the shock begins to wear off and reality of the situation sets in and starts to fester with sadness a bit. Please feel free to give him a call or send him emails, as he needs encouraging words right now to keep his spirits high, especially as he approaches next week. mailto:beto@bici-burro.com

Meals is something that I need some help with. If anyone has ideas of places in SMA that deliver good food will you email me the name and contact info if you have it. Thank you!

Beto is so blessed to have such wonderful friends and I thank you again and again for that!

Much Love,
Natalie

Monday

Hi there,
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Many of you have asked about the art auction fundraiser. They are working hard on getting it together and as soon as I have the details, I will for sure let you know. Beto and my mother have been getting the paperwork together for the chemo, it is quite extensive, and are hoping for a start date of Monday now. The doctor feels that this will give enough healing time between the surgery and the first treatment. That is great news! Hopefully, if all goes as planned, they will be able to get the chemotherapy administered in Queretaro and not have to drive to Mexico City, which would be such a blessing. Beto went for a short walk yesterday which was huge! It was really good for him. I continue to get wonderful emails from all of you. Thank you. I will give you all more info. as I get it :)

Much Love,

Natalie
