Last night I went to an art party at my incredibly talented cousin Melissa Fischer's house. The party was held as a fundraiser for the UMDF. Participants paid a fee to make a craft. After the cost of the supplies were covered the profit is donated to the UMDF. Last night we made a "love bug" for Valentine's Day. We had red velvet cupcakes with cream cheese frosting. They were absolutely the most delicious cupcakes I've ever had! We also had banana punch made by her sister-in-law Ashley. It was soooo very good! It was a fun night crafting and snacking! We are thinking of doing it again around Easter time. You guys should watch for an invite soon!
Jack has still been fighting bronchitis. We have increased his vest treatments from 2 times a day to 4 or more a day. He is on his third antibiotic. He is still smiling through it. I hope we can get him clear soon.
We are looking forward to the Mito What? 5k coming in March. It is being held 8 AM March 24, 2012. It will be Jackson's 5th birthday!!! The race will begin and end at the U.S.A. baseball stadium in Millington, Tn. You can register for the race on line at racesonline.com You don't have to be a runner to get a shirt!!!! There are different levels of participation. I know some of you live out of town and won't be able to attend but you can still register and get a shirt. If you can come and you don't want to run or walk just register for
a shirt come and cheer the runners in. It means so much to me and the other mito families to have your support. Our kids don't have a cure but your participation in fundraising events give us hope that one day a a cure or a treatment will be available one day.
