Girl Reinvented in detour (boys of beth abe)

My very first order of business upon returning to NYC was dinner with the boys! I missed them soooooo much!!!!

From Left: George Gallego and his wife, Jonathan, Me, Jermaine, Jenny, Blake!

Once again Prohibition UWS was the scene of another fantastic night with the boys. Ian, one of the owner's of Prohibition generously took care of the boys' portion of the bill -- AGAIN!! Thank you Ian and everyone at Prohibition! 

The evening was made even more special with the addition of Jonathan. Jonathan can't sign himself out of the nursing home and he rarely even leaves in fear of being stranded with a broken down chair -- but we got him out tonight!! 

 

INCREDIBLE NEWS!!!

Jonathan will be stranded no longer! Jonathan has been APPROVED for a new power wheelchair!!

My deepest, sincerest, heart felt thanks goes to the Darrell Gwynn Foundation -- AGAIN! Your incredible generosity is saving lives! We will be taking all three boys to two different wheelchair ceremony events  in early June!! (one for Jonathan and one for Jermaine -- Blake already got his!)

 

Jonathan's priceless response when I asked him if he WAS EXCITED about the new chair:

Hell Yeah Im excited! sorry pardon me, I mean Yes I'm excited!!! I really do not know How to thank you! I feel like shaking my groove thang! Heeeeyy! lol I think I'll go all around manhattan when I get it! OMG! I feel like I hit the lottery... Imma stop before I get emotional....

I told him it was OK to get emotional – I already did!!! :)
