This is the beginning....

Ok, so first off, let me say, I have never blogged before, so if you follow it, great and if you don't, then that's ok too.

Michael is my youngest son.  He was born August 7, 1988 and we lost him on January 8, 2011 but let me give you a little of our history so you can kinda get to know us. He was a big ole 10 pound baby (had to have emergency c-section).  He was so beautiful.  I remember the doctors telling me that the only way I could hold him is if someone actually picked him up for me and handed him to me for the first few days.  And my mother made some of his clothes, because we had bought all newborn things, thinking he would be a normal sized newborn...NOT.

I loved watching him grow, and his big brother and big sister, Jeffrey aka Critter and Bethany weren't quite sure what to make of him just yet, but they eventually came around and he was their little brother and they loved him and protected him ALWAYS, Well until he got big enough to want to play with their toys too, lol.  And soon enough they learned that once again, they had to share.

I will go ahead and skip ahead, and just to let you know, both of my boys were born with an immune deficiency called Bruton's X-linked Aggammaglobulinemia, and had to get an iv treatment every month for the rest of their lives. In the beginning, we made trips to the childrens hospital in Dallas Tx, it was hard for them to get a needle stuck in their little hands and arms so we had a mediport or portacath surgically placed and that made it alot easier on them.

Eventually we found a doctor closer to home in Fort Worth Texas, but i learned to do the treatments at home, so that really made it easier.

Me and their father had divorced and i was remarried, but it wasnt working out, so as not to bore you I am going to skip ahead just a little bit.........
