Swim 4 Savvy Take Two

Ahh...what a great day! The fundraiser was a blast and Xander and I met all sorts of very wonderful people. The best part was that we finally got to meet Robert and Ana who are the parents of Savvy. I have been communicating with Ana online via Liver Families for a while now. We’ve tried to get together a few times but it just hasn’t happened until now. I am so glad I was able to go. They are great people. Miss Savvy is just darling and is so sweet.

I also got to meet another liver transplant baby, well toddler now. Her name is Allison. She is a cutie patootie and spunky…as I expect a toddler to be. Her parents, Terri and Brian, are such nice, nice people. Then there is big sister Megan who is a sweet kid. She reminds me of Lincoln in that they both have to put up with a lot having a sibling who is sick.

Here’s some pics of the day.



A GIGANTIC bottle of hand sanitizer...somehow I forgot to take a picture of the caution tape. Always the ever careful transplant families.

It brought me so much hope to see these two little warrior princesses running around happy and healthy. I wish that so much for Xander.

There were many more wonderful people there as well. I want to say it was a pleasure to meet and talk with each and every one of you. Hopefully I will be able to see you all again very soon.
