The Purpose of This Blog
Due to the overwhelming concern and support we have received, we set up this blog to easily update everyone interested in Joy's medical progress and treatments. Thank you for all of your love and support!
HOW TO HELP
(1) Visits: Joy cannot see many people during her chemotherapy treatment. Afterwards, if you plan to visit, please call ahead. She cannot be exposed to any illness or children and cannot see anyone if she is sleeping. Many times she will be too tired for visitors. Also, PLEASE NO FLOWERS, chocolates etc. They are not allowed in her hospital room.
(2) Emails/Phone calls: Please keep phone calls to a minimum right now, but feel free to post comments on this blog or email Ken at kwoolley@t-minus-10.com. Although he can't always respond immediately, he really appreciates the support he has received.
(3) Children's Needs: Joy's Mother, Pat Bradshaw, is coordinating all the kids' needs. Ken and Joy could really use some help. Ways to help: babysitting, carpooling, taking one or more of the children on outings or playdates or to a family home evening activity, helping with school projects or anything else. Please contact Pat to coordinate at 801.561.0711 (home) or 801.520.2594 (cell).
(4) Meals: Ken's Mother, Athelia Woolley, is coordinating all Food Assignments. If you'd like to help provide meals, please call her at 801.272.3035 (home) or 801.557.1790 (cell). If you are Joy's ward and would like to provide a meal to the Woolley family, please call Robin Hendrikson, the compassionate service coordinator of their ward. Her number is 801.253.1188.
(5) Prayers and Fasting: Please continue to keep Ken and Joy and their 5 children in your fasting and prayers. Also, consider putting them on the prayer rolls at your local temple.
(6) Humor: At a time like this, Joy and Ken could certainly benefit from a good belly laugh. John Woolley (Ken's brother) is putting together a collection of humor. Please send any funny stories about Joy, Ken, yourself, or anything for that matter, to jwoolley@stanford.edu. He will then forward them a daily dose! Also, Jamie Rip brought a bulletin board to the hospital where we can post any notes, photos, pictures (funny) that will lift Joy. Feel free to mail any of this to Ken's and Joy's address.

Welcome home Joy!!! I hope to see you sometime soon. You have been in our prayers. I can't even imagine how excited you are to be in your home. So many people love you. Take care.
Dear Joy,
We are behind you every step of the way. If Ken calls and says do 176 push-ups for Joy, I'd do them with gusto. A LOT of people would do them!!!
We love you and we support you 200%. (Ken knows the ways I think my meager skills can be utilized in helping you. Don't forget them, Ken.)
Joy, I'm so glad you could be home for Thanksgiving.
MUCH love . . . today, tomorrow, and onward.

Ken and Joy,

Take care.
