A Long Year

I just realized that I first noticed signs of Max's illness a year ago last night. We were returning from our amazing trip to Columbus Isle, the Bahamas, and I noticed funny bruises on Max's neck. I brushed it off at the time, but it was the first indication we noticed that something was wrong. Less than three weeks later, he was in the hospital.


He looks so good in the pictures from the trip. But, even just a few days after we got back, we have pictures of Max from when we picked up Cisco and you can see the awful bruises on his legs.


















And just to end on a happy note, a fun picture of Max with Uncle Greg.

It is no wonder that Max's Wish is go to back to "The big swimming pool with the steps and the stairs and the beach where we made sandcastles with Uncle Greg.
