Samuel looks so happy. I lost all my bookmarks so I haven't been by for awhile. Today I decided I needed to visit. I'm so glad that this years anniversary was a better one for you. I can't believe Colby's 3 year mark is the 7th of August. I'm not sure where the years have gone but I'm grateful for the healing they have brought. WE are going to do Deep Brain Stimulation on August 25th. Its been a long time since I've seen Samuel so I don't know if it's something you have considered. I'll let you know how it goes. I'm terrified but at peace with the decision. It's just the actually going through it portion that scares me. Sorry rambling about us now so I'll just end by saying "Happy Birthday Samuel!"

Though we have only met once, you have won my heart. Thanks to your wonderful mother's post I have been privileged to watch you grow and develop. It has been a very special experience for me. Like your grandmother's letter says, life has been different for me because of you. Please know that I send you much love. You are a very blessed boy to have so many people that love you. Keep those smiles coming. Your photo is adorable. Love, Sharon Happy belated birthday, Samuel. Though we have only met once, you have won my heart.

You are to be commended for all the time and hard work you've put forth into helping Samuel be the "new" person he is today, you've sacrificed and put forth more than anyone in this world can even begin to imagine. May God richly bless you as you continue to pour out your life sacrificially for Samuel and the rest of your family. I'm not sure if you've heard yet but I'm working to put together a Mom's of ND retreat sometime at the end of Oct. or the beginning of Nov. here in WA state. It would be wonderful if you were able to come. I will definitely let you know all the details as soon as I bring them all together.

Yet they still pray for him all the time and ask about him and really love him when we do get to see him. He's definitely a special kid and you're lucky to have him.

This is a wonderful post. It ought to be published. Teresa, you and your Mom are beautiful writers. You've both generated "tears coming to my eyes and warmth swimming through my heart," because I, too, know you are both "entireley and exactly correct." I can't even think of anything to add to it.
