Today is Jackie's 3-year anniversary! It's hard to believe three years have passed since her live-saving surgery. Please remember to keep her donor's family in your prayers this week. I'm sure they're suffering just as much as they did three years ago. I'm still in awe of their generosity in their time of great pain.

Jackie's had a great year so far. Just check-ups. She's such a great big sis to her little brother ( who has kidney disease.) She tries to comfort him when he's going through things or when he has to get blood work done.

I still remember the first time she saw a nurse trying to do blood work on him. She stood in front of him with her arms wide open and yelled, "Don't you hurt my brother!"

Jackie is now in first grade! Amazing. She has no fear of anything and is just enjoying life and making friends. Today she brought in munchkins so that she could celebrate her anniversary with her classroom.

Here's to another great year with her liver!
