Good Evening everyone,

I just wanted to let you know I am going to take a break from updating the
websites for awhile. Thing here are moving so fast I can not keep up, just when
I think I am ready to update the foundations website, something new pops up. I
have been approached by several companies wanting to do things, they think this
is a foundation ran by a host of people, and when I tell them it is just me,
they tell me I need to get a paid staff, and they will help me, so that is what
I am going to do. HOWEVER, While I was talking with Sherri (Bradley Mother) on
the phone tonight, she really put it into perspective for me. We were talking
about funeral arrangements and pain meds, and I just wanted to jump on the next
plane to be there with her and her family. She had to ask to many times are you
still there. I was just in awe at how strong she is, and thought to myself how
I must have sounded when Emily was going through her final journey, because I
would also have ask, are you still there...where did you go. So my most
important job, before I take the staff money or even get a staff is to get to MN
in May. Have the bands ready to be shared with the families, and have my
auction items ready. That is what I will be working on. So if you do not get a
update, it is because I am trying to raise money for bands, and for the Emily
Cook Foundation trip in MN, Now I will have to be all over the city to do it,
and I only have apox. one month to do it in. Pray for me. You know any of you
can reach me by calling me at 402 451 3360. If any of you would like to help
the Foundations address is:4757 North 24th Street, Omaha, Ne 68111 Do NOt
forget about Mekala's Bake sale. Her and friends are making bracelets to sale,
it is this friday 300-630 and sat 900 to 1130.
Love to all,
Julie
