I know it has been a while since I have posted an update, it gets harder each time trying not to repeat myself.
Today is 19 months since Samantha passed away, it is also Jason's 2nd birthday. Bitter sweet as always. I was looking through pictures and can't believe so much time has passed by. As a very dear friend put it to me "it has been the fastest, longest two years". I couldn't have put it better myself. Needless to say my emotions are all over the place today more than most days.
I am happy to say that we started our day out with a big smiles. We drove to school under a huge beautiful rainbow this morning knowing it was Samantha saying Happy Birthday to her little brother just as she did last year. It truly amazes me how she continues to show us signs that she is always with us.
On another note, we were able to help our first family this year with the proceeds from the Golf Outing. Faith Griffin is 6 years old and lives in South Florida. She was diagnosed with an inoperable malignant brain tumor (DIPG) and is currently getting treatment in NY. I hope to post a picture of Faith in our photo section (under meet the children) soon with a link to her website. Please continue to keep Faith and her family in your prayers as she fights this disease with such courage.
We will continue to keep you updated as we reach out to other families & if you know of someone who may need our assisstance please contact us.
Happy Birthday, Jason, I can't believe your 2!
Samantha we miss you deeply & send you all our love Angel.
With Love,
Audra, Kurt, Christopher, & Jason
