Henri and the Bunnyfest

In the words of Henri's owner Ella...

Greetings Friends and Family,

Henri is growing up fast. He has really started to fill out his adolescent frame, becoming quite a handsome little man. It is still hard to believe he has been so sick, you wouldn't know it by looking at him---until you see his ziplock bag of medications. He did very well on his first drug reduction which was a cyclosporine reduction. His hematocrit, at last check, was 42%. Go Henri!! His next drug reduction will be in about a week and will be a reduction in his prednisone dose. Henri's internist told us this week, that relapse risk is not more at the beginning than at the end of the weaning process, it can happen at anytime if the immune system has not stabilized. Mommy was hoping that the risk was less as time went on---So continue to pray for: Good Labs. No Relapse.Henri is still very busy learning about the world around him. This week he discovered dental floss. I was working on the computer in our office when Bella came in and started barking at me. Bella has been known to tattle on Henri when he is getting into trouble but I didn't remember that. After a few minutes, I heard Henri barking in the bathroom and suddenly I realized he was up to something. The floss must have fallen on the floor and Henri had somehow managed to unroll it all over himself. He looked like a white ball of yarn---he was having so much fun. I wish I would have remembered the camera...darn.Henri has received so many bunnies from his Grandmother and friends, I often mistake one of the white bunnies for one of my furkids. I was trying to pickup the stuffed bunnies that were all over the house the other day and realized I was about to grab Henri. As you can see from the attached photos, it is often difficult to find Henri in his piles of bunnies. It's a "Where's Waldo" game but with Henri.Thank you for praying and thinking of our baby Henri. We send well-wishes to the new family that adopted Henri's Grandmother, Madison. We hope Madison's retirement years are filled with lots of love, treats, walks, and everything good in life. Henri sends kisses to Grandma Maddy.

Sincerely,Ella, Jeff, Bella, and Baby Henri
