i promised ellen that i would post every day, even if there isn't much to say. we are still coming home tomorrow. a friend of the family was kind enough to loan us his personal jet so we won't have to deal with baggage claim, security, etc. we will be in north canton around 11:30 tomorrow.
we can't thank everyone enough for the continued outpouring of support. in our darkest hours you shined a brilliant, white light on us. WE can see... thanks to all of YOU.
we will see you soon.

Ryan and Ellen,
What you have shared through this blog, and so eloquently I might add, is a gift to all who follow the blog. Your words leave me speechless. We will be so glad here in North Canton to know that you are home. Sleeping in your own bed and enjoying familiar surroundings should be therapeutic.

Ryan and Ellen, I am really looking forward to seeing the both of you. I was talking to someone today who's friend went to a holistic doctor as a last resort, and she really got great results. She believes in this approach more then anything. I really hope you recieve the same outcome. I cant wait to get the word that its ok to come see you. - Alison
Ellen...It was so wonderful to be able to talk with you last night and still hear strength and conviction in your voice.
I can't wait to hear what the holistic doctor tells you tomorrow because I really believe there are options other than traditional medicine that work.
Hope you are enjoying being in the surroundings of your own home.
All my love and prayers,
Aunt Susan
Ell and Ryan,

Sometimes just being able to be home can lift your spirits and you will have plenty of people ready and willing to surround you with love and prayers! Hope you both are well and hope you will find success with the holistic healing.
Have a peaceful evening!

Ellen & Ryan,
Hope Ellen is resting well tonight. I just wanted to wish you good luck tomorrow with the holistic doctor. I hope that the ride over and back don't cause too much discomfort for Ellen. I can't wait to hear what he has to say. Please remember I am only a phone call away if there is anything I can do for you.
Love,
Hilary
PS How is Nugent enjoying having you both home?
Ryan & Ellen,

Ellen and Ryan,
My love and prayers are with you and your family. Your life shines bright and strong, and surely we are blessed to be called your friend. Your artwork is AMAZING!! I'd love to come visit when you're ready! Marcy Rogers
Dear Ellen and Ryan: Hope this finds you both safely snuggled at your beautiful home. Words can't express my admiration and respect for your bravery and spirit. God's blessings always. Love, Anna Hillhouse
There is no place like home! I hope you are settled now and enjoying being at home with all of your stuff! I am here if you need me, let me know.
If Nugent is anything like our old cat Sam, you will get to be awakened by a cat in the middle of the night jumping on you instead of someone coming in to poke you.
Thinking of you always,
Jen
Ryan & Ellen,
I have been on this website every night since I heard about it. I'm not big on blogging, so I just wanted to let you know that you can call me for anything. I'm kid free for most of the day now! Take care, Lynn Myers
Good Luck at the doctors. It was great seeing both of you yesterday. LOVE the pink hat, El. You're more beautiful and amazing everytime I see you. Keep fighting, stay strong, and I will see you in a couple days.
Continue being the person you are, Ryan.
I love you! Jaime
Thinking of you as you go to the doctor today. I feel confident that you guys are being directed by a higher spirit and that your experience with the holistic practice will be a positive one. Prayers of healing, endurance, and guidance are with you all always. Love Aunt Nancy
Ellen and Ryan,
I am sure that you are feeling a roller coaster of emotions right now...
Sooo happy to be going back home, so devastated that the cancer has spread, but excited about the new holistic approach!:) I am! The holistic medicine is huge here on the west coast and I have heard/read so many success stories:) I support you 100% and I am sending so much positivity, prayers and love your way. I will be in touch, El for I may make a trip back to NC now. Keep fighting. Keep up that amazing attitude. I love you very much, my dear friend. I am so sorry you have to endure this pain.

Glad you made it home okay. I am sure you are glad to be in your own home again.
I stopped over moments after you got home to leave you a little cheer at your garage door but I didn't want to intrude on your homecoming. I hope to be able to visit with you when you are up to seeing people Ellen. Ryan, all I can say to you is that you would by my dream son-in-law. Ellens' and your family both should be so very proud of you and how you are handling everything. Not many people would take the time to make sure everyone that cares has been kept informed along the way. Thank you! Thank you!We are eager for an update on how you are doing Ellen. We are beside you on your journey. Love, Cathy
