4 Clicks 4 a Good Cause

Help Detroit Children's Hospital win the extra special Children's playground that Colgate is giving. Voting only goes until February 29 and you can vote one time per day. Right now, Detroit is in 3rd place.

Janae had a life-saving surgery done at Detroit Children's Hospital. She is now 10 years old and we might not have her today if it were not for that hospital and Dr. Klein who believed in our case enough to evaluate her. She had been denied the surgery at another hospital that the pediatric intensivist over her care there felt she need. Let me suffice it to say that she arrived at Detroit Children's around 7 pm and before we arrived at her bedside by 6 the next morning, Dr. Klein had already reviewed her test results and medical file and scheduled her for surgery :)

All you do is click on the weblink here. Scroll down to see the map of the United States and click on Detroit. It will bring up a list of hospitals - you just click the little "dot" in front of Detroit Children's Hospital and then hit submit. Remember, you may vote one time per day thru February 29!!! Thanks for all you do!

Of course, if you have a Children's Hospital nearer to you on the map, I won't feel too awful bad if you vote on that one. It's all for a good cause.

Happy Birthday, Janae!

To the little girl who we thought might be our boy. You filled our hearts and changed our world! It was a scary few months there in the beginning! We thought we had it made when the delivery went smooth and we got to take you straight home from Mt. Pleasant without a transfer. Little did we know what we were in for 2.5 weeks down the road. But 3 weeks at Sparrow and Detroit Children's Hospitals and two surgeries later, you were good as new. Thanks to many prayers, Dr. Geurtin, who believed in us when others didn't and Dr. Kline, who believed Dr. Geurtin, we made it! We are so thankful that you belong to us. You fill our lives with sunshine and we are proud of each and every accomplishment :)
