Most of my fb friends and family know our situation. But here is a short recap for the ones who don't know us and our situation. So ok Between my preeclampsia and having Gregory @ 29 weeks. Via emergency C-section. A two month hospital stay. He started @ 2.4. Left @6lbs. Also after giving birth, while in recovery we got quite the scare from David by him going into a full blown grand mal seizure. Then the horrific headaches following, and his loss of vision afterward was horrifying. All the while David was still suffering the loss of his beatiful mother Debbie. After Gregory was finally able to come home we get news that He had some abnormal blood work come back. So they redid it, that's when we got Greg's diagnosis. He was born with a rare genetic disorder called tyrosinimia type 2. Happens 1- every 250,000 children. This he will live with for the rest of his life. Finally got David to Agree to get his head checked at Barrow and the CT found a golf ball size tumor. After being rushed and admitted to Athens Regional, he had brain surgery the next day to have it removed. Biopsy came back as CANCER. Masthetic Melanoma. Other masses have since been found as well. But we are fighting this disease every day together as a family and with some pretty strong chemo. Their are alot of things i could go on n on with but let me get down to why I made this. Other than alot of people saying i should. I thought people would think i was wanting pitty or attention. But that's a big NO. We have falling way behind. So behind that if we don't have property tax, we will be out of a home. That scares me to death. We r looking to get David in a program called "vista" helps reteach people who have lost their vision or that have went blind to do all things they used to before losing their sight. It's hard not having a vehical especially with all our appointments. It's so hard to catch up And get ahead when a family falls behind like we have. On top of all things bad that has happened in the past year. I trust that we will beat all negativity and the darkness. And come out of this better people, more positive people. God bless you all that takes time to read this and please share to all your facebook friends and family. Remember anything helps. Even If it's just $1. It's the thought that counts and I will praise you. God will praise you & bless u. And thankyou for taking your time to care and read this far.
Pass this on please.
