Yours was the first sight I came across when searching 'Tracheostomy' just before my son received his. He contracted a viral infection to the brain and as a result has encephalothopy/atrophy. He is now on a ventilator. I just wanted to thank you for taking the time to update Jack's blog. I know it's an outlet for you, as my son's Carepage is for me, but I love reading your insight and I can always relate to many of your struggles, from the medical supply companies, to the doctors appointments, I just enjoy hearing it from a seasoned veteran's perspective. Thanks for your wisdom. Best wishes to you, Jack and your family!! Merry Christmas,<BR/>Rachel Marini<BR/><BR/>PS- Jack is as adorable as they come!The Marini'shttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13173478315391586356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29916680.post-15068013643760765582007-12-18T14:53:00.000-07:002007-12-18T14:53:00.000-07:00great article, but the idea of you being "told" ab...great article, but the idea of you being "told" about Jack by anyone is certainly worth a chuckle:)<BR/>Happy to see all the kids enjoying the Christmas Spirit too<BR/>xo christinaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29916680.post-87002679974442071042007-12-17T19:05:00.000-07:002007-12-17T19:05:00.000-07:00Ann,You thought about writing the author for clari...Ann,<BR/><BR/>You thought about writing the author for clarification? It's probably too late now. Sometimes they'll post a retraction or something like that, mainly just to clarify Jack's condition. Like you said, it did what it was supposed to do...bring attention to a cause.<BR/><BR/>Yes, enjoy your sun! Soak up some extra rays for me and my family!! May your feet be light and your patience be long while shopping at the MALL!! I have threatened to take a few hours off later this week to take D to see Santa.

Reporters never seem to get all of the details right, which is something to keep in mind when reading the news. <BR/><BR/>Good to see Sarah:-)Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01543707725128550394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29916680.post-38684982047210339652007-12-17T13:17:00.000-07:002007-12-17T13:17:00.000-07:00At least the article showed a picture.
