I have tried to write this blog for a week now and things have just been so busy. The work that went into our TSC fundraiser was crazy!! I had no clue how many hours would go into all the planning. I am so thankful family and friends chipped in and picked up all the pieces that I missed. I feel like our team really pulled together and we did it! Our goal of $3,000 was met. The amount of support from family, friends, our community and local businesses was absolutely amazing. It's humbling to see how many people love our Maddie. I can't wait to show her over the years how many of you have supported her/us and have taken on her cause. It's such a blessing to have a great support group. Team Maddie absolutely rocks!!
So now that things are slowing down...a bit... We are focusing on our trip to the TSC world conference! I can't wait to meet these families that I have become so close with over this past year. It's like we have a second set of family with our TSC community. It's going to be so great to learn more, make new friends, and connect with those I've spoke with online. I'm also extremely excited to be in Washington D.C. over the 4th of July weekend. How cool will that be?!? We plan to make it a family vacation to remember. Chris and I both have traveled there before, but never as a family. It's going to be great trip with tons of memories to make. Thanks to our awesome community for raising money for us to go! We are such a blessed family!
We thank you all for your love, encouragement, and prayers. They are what keeps our family moving along.
As always, please continue to pray for our Maddie. Her disease is so complex so please pray for complete healing!
We love you all!!
Heather I love reading your blog. I have tried to post but have had trouble. I saved my comments and will include them now, as my comment for JUNE posted! YEAH! You are a wonderful and drive Momma! Your husband and parents are so energetic and resourceful. It is amazing that working for Team Maddie has enlightened so many more people on TSC. I have tried so hard to explain how important it is that we help raise money to find a cure. My students that gave their time, energy and support will always remember they help raise money for TSC and TEAM MADDIE in 2014. WE will be ready for next year! Sure do love you and your sweet family Heather!
