Happy Thanksgiving

We just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. Boy do we have a ton of things to be thankful for this year. The first being that our little boy is alive and doing well. The fact that we have him here with us for the holidays is a miracle. All of the odds were against Max in the beginning of his life and he proved them all wrong. Someone told me a couple of weeks ago, if you didn't believe in God before, you should now. That comment is an absolute fact. Someone much more superior to all of us here on earth is watching over Max and helped him defy all of those odds. And that ladies and gentlemen is what Tim and myself are thankful for this Thanksgiving.

We are also very thankful for our support team that has gotten us through this entire process. So, a very big thank you to all of you! We appreciate all that each and everyone of you has done for us. You will never know how much it all means to us. There is nothing that we will be able to do to show our gratitude.

Again, we have to throw out a HUGE thank you to the medical team and nurses for all that they did for Max during his 6 month stay in the RCNIC. It brings tears to my eyes just to think about what you ladies did for him. You all are miracle workers and should be very proud of yourselves for what you do. We love you all and are so very grateful that you were brought into our lives.

One more group of people that we have to be thankful for are our parents. My goodness, what we wouldn't do without our parents. They taught us how to be strong in difficult situations and our strength is what has gotten us through all of this. They also taught us one of the most important lessons in life and that is to stay positive. A negative attitude isn't going to get you anywhere. They have stood by us since the beginning, and we are very grateful. Max is a very lucky little boy to have such wonderful grandparents in his life.

Thanksgiving 2008 will be a very special holiday for us and it will be remembered forever as the year of miracles.

Happy Thanksgiving!
