Thank You!

We will never be able to personally thank everyone who has helped us over the last few months, so this is our attempt to thank all of you!

Thank you for all of your support last week during our loss of Gavin. We really appreciate everything that was done to help celebrate his short life, and the support you all showed Steve and I at his funeral service. Planning that day was very difficult, but it was beautiful, and we are so glad that so many chose to share that time with us. We do not know who did what, or who brought what for the event at The Pit, but we appreciate all of it! We are grateful to have so many people who care about us!

Thank you for all of the visits, flowers, candy, magazines, calls, emails, meals, etc. while I was at home and while I was in the hospital. The visits were especially nice, and I really appreciate the time you took to entertain me!

Thank you for all of the cards and flowers you have sent to the house. This continues to be a difficult time for us as we are torn between mourning for Gavin and celebrating for Colby. These feelings are reflected in the emails, calls, and cards we receive from all of you. Thank you for thinking of us!

Thank you for the donations you have made, and continue to make in Gavin's memory. We have been notified of donations to the March of Dimes, Wake Med Foundation, and The Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome Foundation. If you would still like to make a donation, and are looking for an organization we have a local suggestion - April's Angels. Steve and I worked with this organization last fall, and it meant a lot to us. April's Angels is an organization that redecorates the bedroom of chronically ill children. The bedrooms are re-done to create a fantasy room for the sick child. April's Angels was started and is run by a woman in Cary. Check them out at: www.aprilsangels.org

Thank you all again for everything!
