Playing in the snow




Pictures are of Gabe and Sam shoveling, Sam about ready to throw a snowball at me (note the twinkle - or gleam - in his eyes), and Gabe making a snow angel in the back yard.

Hi from Germany,

your blog is very intersting!

My son, Fabian, age 10, is wheelchair bound since he fell from a tree two years ago. It was a very hard time for all of us after Fabians accident. The moment when the doctor told us, that Fabian is paralyzed and the moment when we must told him that he never walk again, was so terrible. Especially terrible was the day, when Fabian got his first wheelchair. I still cry when I saw him sitting in his wheelchair at the first time.

But Fabian is so brave! I am so proud of him.

Since his accident Fabian visits a school for special needs kids. All other kids in his class are disabled, too. The most kids must use a wheelchair, tree kids can walk with a walker / quad canes.

Every Saturday Fabian visits a sport group for children in wheelchairs. Two hours they play together in their wheelchairs. It is so funny for the kids.

Two month ago he got a new “Spidermann”-wheelchair.

If you are interest I will send you a photo of him in his new wheelchair.

Best wishes Katja

I was checking your sight for an update because my friends son had a rhizotomy on May 27th at Gillette Children's. She is wondering how his 6month follow up went and how he is progressing. If you would be ok emailing her if your not updating your site anymore it would be a great comfort to her. Her name is Megan Kerr and her email is kerrhome@pressenter.com
Thank you very much and I hope your son is doing well.
