WOW! Lauren I can honestly say that you are one fantastic lady. Thank you so much for posting. With all that is on your plate to even attempt everything that you have makes me tired. Also, no apologies needed as we are only wishing and praying for the restored health of the little boy named Drake.

I am glad to hear that you are enjoying your time spent with him. We all take too much for granted and kids and grandkids grow up way to fast. Many times we miss seeing some of the little things that bring a smile and laughter that we are now able to see.

I still check in on the CarePage regularly and I will continue to do so. I will also offer my well wishes and prayers for 2008 being the year that Drake overcomes all of these dreaded health issues.

Unfortunately I won't be at the Chili Bowl. Enjoy the time in Tulsa and I wish I could be there to see you and the entire Besecker family. Keep the faith. Happy New Years.

Mike
