Hello to All -
I have a feeling this year will be a year of many firsts where I find myself looking back and realizing what we went through 4 years ago. Memorial Day weekend has also been the anniversary for everything. Bo had a biopsy done the Friday before the weekend (I should apologize to everyone that came to our party and was wondering what in the world was the matter with us.) Then we found out he had cancer on a Tuesday, on June 1st. It was then confirmed by Duke on June 6th, mind you it was 6-6-06 (Another day the world was suppose to end. For us it was the worst day of our lives so we decided it could only get better from there). Well today is also the day he received his second call (the It's a Go!) for his lung transplant. I have tried to forget about the first transplant because, well we all know how well that went. So then again on June 1st he was transplanted a second time and my Bo came back to me. I will always carry with me that he loved Addi and I so much he truly came back alive to be with us. Granted our time together afterwards was shorter than we wanted, I am grateful for it. We spent 5 months in the hospital together everyday grateful. Like a dummy I put today on my calendar, like I would ever forget...Crazy what life can throw at you in 4 years.
Thank you for everything to all our family and friends I hope your day is wonderful.
Love to All
Christi and Addi

I continue to admire your strength, candor, and grace. While this year will be one full of change, ups and downs we will continue to support you and Addi every step of the way. More importantly, so will Bo.

It is hard for me to grasp all the events too. We are all blessed by Bo's life and also you and Addi. Have a great Holiday and we will all pause to remember so many blessings so many have given us. We continue to keep you and Addi in our prayers.
