No place like home


Eva is getting Birth Day greetings from 'Goofy' .
Look to the left Eva you have 'Goofy' with in your own family!













Hello everybody.

We are finally home. This has been some great trip. Sammy was at his best . Every one had enjoyed it. Since there was 8 of us ,we decided not to have a schedule.We spent first two days at the beach with Sammy and the rest Disney parks and Universal studios. There is plenty to do from slow pace to very active.Thanks to 'Make a wish foundation' and 'Give kids the world Village'/our place we stayed at/ we had VIP privileges for rest spot at parks-it helped allot.
Realizing that only few weeks ago Sammy had lost his vision and still adapting ,we decided to find ways to compensate it. We found toothbrush that will play songs every time he will brush.We tested if Sammy would like some music by using personal IPod .Now we can get him a CD player and many children books on CD. There is something you can do -no mater what kind of challenge you are facing this time.We are continue to search for ways to get it interesting for Sammy again-not dark .We all took turns to take care of Sammy not only adults but all siblings enjoyed it too. Sammy love all the attention -we identify ourselves ,so he knows who is near him and give him warnings when he is to be moved or switched positions.
It's must be ,so incredibly hard and scary to loose your eyesight -just try for your self! Close your eyes for just few minutes. What do you feel now?
Sammy has been charging us with his kindness,strength and much love.Trip of a lifetime,great times-memories .Stronger than ever we are back home.
Good night XOXO Sammy and Family.
