Merry Christmas




At times our own light goes out and is rekindled by a spark from another person. Each of us has cause to think with deep gratitude of those who have lighted the flame within us.
Albert Schweitzer

Many thanks to all my family and friends and even strangers who have shown love and kindness toward Kristen and I. There were many times these past few months that I felt as though my light had completely gone out. I felt as though I was standing in a dark place a very dark place. At times it has been a dark scary place. It has been through all of you that the light has once again began to burn. It is through your kind words and encouragement  that I have been able to once again feel the warmth of your light. Although there are many long hard days ahead I am grateful to say that I know that I am not alone.
This Christmas I am very grateful for family friends and even strangers.

Sending so much love to Kristin and you and your entire family this Christmas, although strangers from across the globe we stand beside you in spirit through this journey. You really have shown me what true courage and strength means, I feel humbled. I continue to pray for all of you and especially for the days that are ahead, may they be as smooth and pain-free as possible and may Kristin beat this damn thing once and for all. Wishing you all a very happy Christmas.
