Can I share a website

11 years ago

Hi friends. I would like to share a website that is very near and dear to me. The incredible, young lady that this site is about is my granddaughter, Rhana.

If you would take a few minutes and read her amazing journey and maybe keep her in your thoughts and prayers, it would be greatly appreciated. I continue to be amazed at her inner strength and she has taught our family so much about courage.

The website is rhanasjourney.com Thank you, Mary

A quick update: as of 2:59 am pacific time our incredibably courageous granddaughter moved her right foot for the first time in almost two weeks. A later update this afternoon reveals that she can wiggle the toes on both feet. There are miracles. I would ask that you continue to keep her in your thoughts and prayers they are working. Thank you so much. Mary

Hi lidya, I am curious the know what you are planning. The details of your project can inspire and teach others. Are you going into farming? The facts on the website are for large farms and are generally known but it is interesting to see it in a survey format. Drip is at the top of uniformity of course, hand watering at the bottom with various types of overhead watering in the middle. The audit is interesting. They specify cans placed around the site to measure uniformity of water intensity. The average homeowner can set cups around the lawn to measure the uniformity of their sprinkler system. This is also a great way to figure how long you need to water to put 1" of water per week on your lawn using your particular system. Great find. Aloha.

Horrors! I would never have pop ups or any time of advertisement. Yucch...those are for dot coms. Though some .orgs and .edus do have them, I personally feel they don't belong on educational websites. You can always Google "winter sow" or "winter sowing" or even "free seeds" and you'll come up with my site. You don't need the quotes ;-) I'm at the top of the page well above the fold, lol! I think you want the page for Tomato Cage Germination Tunnels--these work really well! And they're super easy to make--you can use them on existing beds and direct sow under them, but make sure you weight down the poly-plastic with lots and lots of bricks so they don't blow away in a severe storm. Here is a link that might be useful: Tomato Cage Germination Tunnel

I have only bought from www.cobraplant.com. I am chomping at the bit to buy from : www.cpjungle.com www.wistuba.com (Germany) I have kind of stopped buying from nurseries lately because there are three forums I frequent that members either sale or offer plants for trade. 1. (I cannot mention this one on this website apparently???) 2. www.cpukforum.com (there is a sale/trade thread for USA) 3. http://pitcherplants.proboards34.com/index.cgi?board=trade I highly recommend these sites to expand your collection. You can get some of the more common plants for very cheap and sometimes for free (cost of postage). Even some of the more rare plants can be cheaper than what you would pay at a nursery. Also, seeds, cuttings, leaf pullings, etc can be found. I recently got a young Cephalotus for a very good price. I also have two Cephalotus Hummers Giant leaf pullings that I am hoping will root soon. There is also a wealth of knowledge on these sites for all things CP.

Thanks! Keep them coming! Buehl, I'm looking for an example of a set up that a vendor could embed in his/her website to showcase his/her work, I'm not sure how you'd do that with the FKB set up, but I will show him.

Mary, I looked at Rhana's website and wish her the very best. She is a cutie. I hope she recovers fully and I'm glad to hear she is making progress.

Keep up the good work, Rhana!

Mary, I also left an email message for Rhana and read her website. She's in my prayers and I'm sending all the strong thoughts I can find for her.

I hope she has a full recovery, although the road may be very long. Hugs to you too, I cried when I read the website.

How encouraging that there's a glimmer of recovery! From all accounts on her website, she's an outstanding young lady. I'm sure that despite whatever hurdles she'll continue persevere.
Adding my hugs to you for bearing her burden and sending all positive thoughts for Rhana's continued recovery.

a quick update. Rhana took 8 breaths on her own today. A huge step. Swallowing lessons tomorrow. I will continue to ask for your prayers and messages to her. It is making a difference. Thank you, Mary

Jan 7 update. I received a video this morning of the most beautiful sound. "Hi Gram, I love you". After 23 days of silence, Rhana can talk out loud . she is on a mobile ventilator and is waiting her swallowing test. I'm pretty sure she will get the cookies and lemonade she so desires soon.

I'm not sure if these reports upset people but they are such giant milestones in life, I just have to share. One thing I've learned going through this journey is to live life to the fullest and not take anything for granted. It can change in a millisecond. Please keep Rhana and Di's grandson, Boston, in your thoughts and prayers. Thank you, Mary
