Updates on our precious son Jimmy. (Jimmy is one of 4 kids born to us. My first child, Lori, passed away of a brain tumor at two and a half yrs. old. See her link below. We have Mike now who is 20, Amy who is 17, and Jimmy who is 15). Jimmy was born on Dec. 26th,1991. He survived a brain tumor, at age 2 & 1/2 yrs. old (which left him non-verbal) With Autistic tendencies. A sacral joint tumor, which was removed and replaced with 2 surgical screws when Jimmy was 7. He has Mild C.P. and suffers from a muscle disease known as Dystonia where his body stiffens and spasms. Together with his 3 Drs. we strive to give Jimmy the best life possible. The spasms arent quite under control yet, but we forge forward and keep trying new options. Right now he is on a medicine protochol, that helps but not as much as we would like. We remain positive and faithful that someday little Jim will be able to live a painfree life free from the clutches of Dystonia.

we had ALEX from make a child smile here to celebrate her organization's 10th ann. (see Jimmy's link below to go to her site). We presented her with a bracelet that said Macs 10th anniversary. Jimmy's Aunt Debi(my sister) makes jewelry and put this beautiful piece together. :0) I wanted to keep these pictures up because they are so priceless. We were so happy Alex was able to join us at our house. She was celebrating her web site's 10th anniversary. Make a Child Smile. (You can click on below and read all about it). We had Amy's graduation the same day and it was a great time all the way around. :0) The 4th of July was a little lay back, compared to some of our festivities. I wasnt feeling well....so, was trying to catch a rest in between the kids going in and out all day. Jimmy LOVED watching the fireworks from his bedroom window with mommy here. I have a few pics and will post them here for you all to see. Thrs. (tomorrow) is Jimmy's big neurology visit with Dr. G. at the Cleveland Clinic. Wish us luck on that. I'll post more later. ttys.
