A Visit to Memphis



Friday, July 11

The Novicki family is in Memphis TN today visiting the Hanson's. Tyler's treatment was delayed for a week because of his liver enzyme levels and mouth sores. His weight has dropped to the borderline amount and he needs to increase his weight this week while off of his med's. Tyler' hair has completely dropped out but he is still handsome and has the most beautiful smile around. He looks good and it was so much fun to see him, Sarah, Elijah, Christian, Glen and Mollie.

We arrived yesterday afternoon at their home. We hung out and caught up on what is going on in their lives. The Ross family came for dinner and it was so nice to meet them. They are like family to the Hanson's and I can see why. I immediately fell in love with them. After a mexican meal that Sarah prepared, we talked for a while and watched the kids play Rock Band. After the Ross' left we played Taboo. Tyler, Conner and Christian (Conner's brother) stayed up way too late but we are only here for a night so why not. Charles is still in Louisville. He finally got everything moved out of the house on Wednesday night. A big thank you to Gary Beams and Jeff Foster for helping Charles. They stored the remaining items at the Foster's home.

Thank you to everyone who reads the blog. We would like to hear from you whether you know Tyler and his family or not so leave a comment. It is so much fun to read comments from family and friends. We love you all. God Bless and stay close! Remember to sign up for Tyler's Run/Walk to show the family some much needed support.

Hey Hanson gang,
Well it took us almost 8 hours to get home from Memphis. I told you we stop a lot. Thanks for the great hospitality, food and fun. Sarah, I love my bracelet and earrings. Thank you again. I miss you already. Tyler, stay strong and eat a lot. You promised! Love to all.

Hi Tyler!

You probably don't remember me, but I went to high school with your mom and dad. I still remember how beautiful your mom looked pregnant with you. I'll never forget how stunning she looked in her swimsuit with her baby bump! I'll also never forget meeting you and holding you shortly after you were born. It was such a blessed day!!!

It's been awhile since I've seen you. We used to get together with you and your parents while you all still lived in Tucson. You were always such a sweetheart and such a cutie!!! That still hasn't changed! :)

Anyhow, just wanted to say hi and let you know my family is praying for you! Your story is so inspiring and we know God is holding you close! It's amazing how He is showering you with blessings! You have amazing friends and family and we are so happy you are surrounded with such great people!!! God is GREAT!!!

Stay strong and positive! You WILL get through this. God is amazing!!!

Sending you a BIG hug and kiss!!! Please say hi to your parents for us!!! God Bless you!

With Love,
Sylvia, Jason, and Isaac Moyle

Well, seeing as how everyone's "counting" their comments, I'll be taking slot #10, I guess! What a popular guy you are, Tyler! I know you're probably anxious to be done with treatment, but I love that your body is getting a little rest this week! And I LOVE the picture of you...what a handsome guy you are! Kim, thanks so much for doing this for ALL of us...keeping up with this precious family and a constant reminder to lift them in prayer! May you feel His Presence so very powerfully during this tough time! You are loved and prayed over...God is faithful!

Tylero! dude, i was dissapointed in your smash playing and soul calibur, but that's alright... you'll never beat me! Keep mackin' on the ladies and you know who...hmmm. Anyways it was fun seeing you guys this past week. Tell Christian he needs to fight the monster under the bed (which he claims is cookie monster from sesame street).

Hi Tyler,
My family is praying for you all the time. We are going to the run/walk on Thursday. I have to make sure my students are staying in shape this summer and not eating too many Doritos! (Actually I'm probably the one eating too many Doritos...) Keep up your strength and know that we're always thinking of you.

Tyler,
We hope you are feeling rested after your week off. Looking forward to Thursday night! Cleary Court News: Since we were gone two weeks Chase cut TWO TEETH. Your brother is losing his and Chase is just getting his. Rhalie (oops I don't know how to spell his name) was asking to go into "your house" last night and play. I hope he does not grow up and get mad at me as I report on his big boy underware! He is SO cute and doing great in that area.
Tell your Mom we said hello and I am sure she must be feeling a bit creaky as her BIG DAY approaches!!!

hey tyler. glad to see that super-smile of yours hasn't changed. i'm in kansas this week hanging out with my family. i'm trying to stock up on kansas state and kansas university gear, so i'll be set for the school year. have i ever mentioned that kansas rocks!? well, it does. i'm pretty sure if Jesus were to live in the U.S., he would choose kansas...

adios! hope to see you soon!

Hi Tyler, We hope your day has been pleasant and that you are feeling a bit better. My little boys and some neighbor friends set up a lemonade stand for you yesterday and plan to have a few more! They made it a point to tell all their customers...(MANY, by the way) about you and now you have many more friends praying for you. At the end of the summer they hope to send some sunshine your way with their earnings. That's what friends are for. Keep smiling buddy because you are blessed!
