Renee, we are very sorry to hear about Joey, the moment I saw him in the stoller he looks like a little angel with those adorable blue eyes. I have passed out the shop & share coupons to our friends and family and we will be at the fundraiser and would like to help in any way we can. I have contracted several of my local vendors to get donations and prizes for the fundraiser in March. You seem like an amazing family, and your story is very inspiring, we will pray for Joey everyday to remain healthy and keep the path of beating the odds. If you ever need anything please dont hesitate to ask. Love, The Gravina Family

Dear Renee and Jay, I know we don't know each other well, but we're also in the Woods of Wayne! We live in the house on White Oak and Magnolia... You have a beautiful website for Joey :o) We personally DO know/understand the challenges that come with having a child that faces health challenges. Our youngest daughter, Erin was also treated at Children's Memorial Hospital from August 2002 to January 2003. She had a Pons Glioma brain tumor that had spread to her spinal cord :o( She was treated by Dr. Goldman at Children's Memorial. I had heard about Joey from our neighbor and wanted to reach out to you but also understand how very busy and engrossed in Joey's care you must be.... so, I didn't want to bother you. I'm delighted to hear that Joey is doing better! I also know of a special family who's daughter has been fighting the same fight with Neuroblastoma, however, she was actually diagnosed in her late teen years. She is still doing well and she has a wealth of information about the disease. You may want to contact her.... Here is her website: http://www.annabanana.org/ Please feel free to contact me with any questions, needs, etc...

What a beautiful little soldier! I will hold Joey, and all of you, in my heart, thoughts and in my prayers. Our children are surely the root of true heroism... With shared hearts and hugs to all of you, Beth Anne Our Kyle (2/10/88 to 12/7/92) Acute Lymphocytic Leukemia Ph+ http://www.rememberingkyle.memory-of.com

Renee and Family....God Bless you and your family! Kids with special needs are stronger than think and teach us such valuable lessons; never stop learning from them or give up. I truly believe that God gives special kids to special people so that both can grow and learn together. Little Joey is in my thougths and prayers.

What a beautiful and precious gift from God you have! He knew exactly what he was doing when He gave Joey to you! I wish you all of the best of luck and happiness and a long fruitful life for your son.
