Hello Everyone!!

Well five weeks out and I think we might have this baby thing figured out!!   ;  He's sleeping around 5 hours at a time, much better than before...just praying it will continue and only get better!!  He's so precious, everytime I look at him I'm still amazed at what a beautiful child he is, truely blessed!

Ok, enough about that miracle for now, and on to another one.  A few months back I saw a segment on CNN about heroes.  I know everyone in this community thinks highly of DJ and everything that he has done, however, my husband is one of the most humble creatures God created and doesn't take credit where credit is due.  I believe DJ should be nominated and highlighted as a CNN Hero.  I think it would mean more to DJ to be nominated from this community as a hero, than any material possession or monetary value.

Not only did he create this site selflessly, but also www.clusterheadaches.com, of which both were done to reach out to two diverse communities for support, encouragement, education and family.  Bringing so many people together to provide a sense of security among a world of questions, fear, doubt, and hurt.  I am amazed at not only the compassion of my husband's heart, but the passion he has put forth for people he has never met, nor will ever meet.  To me, that is not only incredible, but humbling, and makes me look at things in my world in a new light.

Not only has he served this community as your hero, but 20 years as one of America's Heroes in the USAF.  So many wonderful things have come out of these two sites he's created, literally to a world wide scope, now it's time for the world to know where they came from.

I Meant love U dj  ;  You Too Steph

I just finished filling out the form..what a WONDERFUL IDEA!!!!!  Thanks Steph!!

Hey Steph,

I just finished filling out the form. Hopefully if we all fill out the form, DJ will win. Regardless, he is one of my hero's. Without him and this site, there would be a lot of us wondering aimlessly and thinking that we were the only ones with such a rare disease.

Good Luck DJ.
Greg

My submission is in.

No complaining DJ, this is what happens when you are so selfless and caring. We love you and want the world to know!

P.S. If you need a way to think of this as not being about how great you are, just think of the publicity MM will get if you win! 

Hi Steph!

I meant to tell you that I also nominated DJ for the CNN hero thing back while I was out with my brother in Stanford for his follow-ups.  Shane and I sure do hope he wins. 

Steph -
Am finally letting you know that Jon, Kate and I are rooting for our "nominated hero" - Deej, of course !!  Can't think of a better person to receive this recognition.
