Hi Chad,
Everyone is talking about the Olympic games here in the states. I'm so glad you have the opportunity to be in the country where they are being held.
I hope you see some competitors. Imagine, being in the olympics! What an opportunity!
Love you,
Mama

Hello Chadem Felix,
I didn't think you would be returning to China so soon. Most people never leave their home town or their state. I admire your passion for traveling.
You may not remember me but I'm MarySue Orr. I visited you while you were in Canada at Sick Kids Hospital. I still talk with your mom regularly and she emailed me you blog last year and again this year.
You have over come so many obsticles in your 8 years of life. I am so glad you are given these opportunities and wish more children were able to.
I hope to see you when you return.
Good for you Chad! I'll be checking back soon!
