My thoughts...

Hello friends. This weekend Sammy had a special treat. We had a guest on Purim day and she brought allot of goodies and presents for me and Sammy.Sammy loved all the treats and specially 'Quinn Esther's head cookie' after he was done with that his face was covered in different colors .We read a great book of Purim and then..... We heard a knock on our door. After door opened we saw huge Bonny-rabbit standing in the door way. /every child got a small gift for Easter in the hospital/ It was so sudden ,we didn't expect to see talking 6 foot tall-Easter bunny and Sammy and I just burst out laughing.
All weekend Sammy was in the company of grandma Yelena and grandpa Yuriy. They took such a good care of Sammy ,while mom went home for a day.Mom ,Dad and girls enjoyed a Saturday at home together ,mom forgot where everything is in the house was and how to cook .
Family also visited old friends and even wished a very happy 1st B-day,to a beautiful and special Mirabella.After a great glass of wine my thoughts got to me .....It was a great party and as I was watching kids playing and hopping in the future Sammy can be part of it too just like before . I though about everyone that reached out to us,our friends that spent countless hours and resources to create this great website and support us from day one ,about people that we didn't even know that open their hearts to us ,how fortunate we are to have such a great support.I thought about how useless you feel when you see your child is in pain and can't do much about that,but only pray.I thought about that ,no parent or grandparent should ever see such a challenge and sadness in the child's eyes.I also thought about many miracles that happened on our path to recovery , how we found what we was looking for when least expected, that if we continue praying and I continue support my son's spirit G-d will help us again and again .That If I continue saying to Sammy-You we be OK! We will get you back on your feet in no time- he will finally believe in it and start to be more persistent and try harder.
All of this thought help me plan! What is our goal for the next week? What about you fans ?
How often do you think of us?Do we help you understand and appreciate life better cherish what you have now?Do you count your blessings ,like we do? Sincerely Sammy and Mom

Chana, when my mom came back from visiting you, she was so inspired. She said how amazing you are for the love and special attention you give to your son. All of us have seen firsthand the strength and faith of your family. Eva always has a smile on her face, optimistically ready to take on the day. We are in awe as we watch your family, your commitment to each other, your values and your hope. You are always in our thoughts and prayers.

i agree, you are always in our thoughts and prayers and if we mention the sick for the brocha, then my son alsways reemembers to say chaim shmuel ben chana. we are really inspired by your heroism and it has influenced our faith in G-D in a very positive way. As G-D is the true redemeeer and people/doctors/nurses are just his messengers. Happy Purim
