I cant think of a more deserving family. your strength, your pain, your love. Good Luck with the comp. From James and the Renee's!
here's a hug for you guys.
nzceltic and her eldest daughter miss9 have been following kyahs journey the last couple of weeks. It has made us both cry numerous tears and also look at miss3 and mr17mths and just treasure them so much more. Kyah looks similar to miss3 which makes it seem so much more sentimental and I can only admire and respect them for their strength through this. I know I couldn't cope as well as they seem to be. Hugs kisses and fairy wishes to Kyah xxx
Something nice in a very dark time
I have followed your story and can't think of a family who deserves this (and so much more!) more than you guys.
