My family and I would like to thank everyone here.  You all have given us so much support, and prayers through everything.  This website, Dj, and the people here have truly been wonderful.  You all are always in our hearts, and our prayers.

Holly's 1 yr anniversy of her first surgery is tomorrow.  Tomorrow we are letting go 4 light blue balloons.  One from each of us to represent Moyamoya and our thanks for the care she has been given, and the love and support from everyone here and our family and friends everywhere.

As I look back over the last year, it was like yesterday that we were told she had MM.  So much has happened since then, things went so quickly for us.  I remember how scared we all were.  Not knowing what to think or expect.  A year ago today we were in Stanford praying that everything would go ok.

I just want you all to know she is doing wonderful here in Texas, she adjusted well to the move and to the new school.  She has made honor roll all year long and will be going into the 5th grade soon.  Her teachers are amazed at how well she has done after everything. 

I know I haven't been around much lately, I have been trying to settle into a new job, a new house, and a few medical problems with my older daughter.  But I think about everyone here, every day.

With all our heart, and all our love, we thank each and every one of you for everything you have done.  I look forward to seeing you all in Vegas.  Even though Holly isn't coming, I'm bringing some things to share about her.

Hillary,
I remeber Tyler's 1 year anniversary from his surgeries it was a great feeling to know he was doing well then. Just knowing he had improved so much and that we were getting thru it was wonderful.

In June it will be 2 years for him. I can't beleive how much has changed since then.

I'm glad to hear Holly is doing so well and look forward to hearing about her 2 year anniversary too.
