Thanksgiving: During this season of Thanksgiving, we truly have a lot to be thankful for. God has blessed us in more ways than we could ever begin to list here. One of our greatest blessings this year is having Andy sitting at the Thanksgiving table with us. Just four months ago, we had no idea what God’s plan was for Andy’s life as he laid unconscious in the hospital being kept alive by machines. Today he continues to recover and show signs of progress every day. He has difficulties with some of his cognitive functions but he is here and that is what we are thankful for. We are also thankful for each and every one of you who have been there for us through this difficult year. Your prayers, support and friendship have been overwhelming. Thank you God for sending us so many blessings!!

Trip to NY: We had a great time a couple of weeks ago with a quick trip to NY to see family. It was busy but we had a chance to visit with all of the grand parents, aunts, uncles and cousins that live in the Rochester and the Olean areas. Andy was disappointed that is was in the 70’s while we there, he was hoping for three feet of snow.

Birthday: Andy’s big day is coming up quickly; he will be turning 21 on December 8^th. Every day Andy flips through the pile of mail with anticipation that he has mail but the only thing he usually receives is medical bills. If you would like to make his big day more special, he would love getting cards and notes in the mail. Our address is 7824 Lake Rd., Chippewa Lake, OH 44215.
