NOT for medical reasons



I just had to write to tell you all that for the first time since Trey’s diagnosis, we went on a family trip that had nothing to do with Trey and his condition. Mike and I decided it would be fun to respond to his Uncle Glen’s 70th Birthday invite with a big, “Yes”. We were all able to take the time off – 30 hours to be exact and travel to California for the memorable event. We hopped on a Southwest Airlines Luv jet on Saturday morning immediately following the boys swim meet and were back on the road, traveling with Mike’s parents by car on Sunday (Father’s Day) after an extremely lovely breakfast with Mike’s family. We took our time driving home on Father’s Day and made the most of the trip by stopping by an aquarium, the beach and a delicious dinner to celebrate for Mike and his Dad on their day. We all had such a great time just being together, no worries, no appointments, no blood draws, shots or results…it brought a lot of enjoyment packed into a little bit of time for all of us. Happy Birthday Uncle Glen, a big thanks to you and the girl’s for the smiles.
