Saturday was absolutely amazing! Our Team Ayden's Avengers raised over $500 for the Hemispherectomy Foundation. The Hemifly was a beautiful sight to see throughout Ryan Park on Friday and then Saturday morning we were joined by friends to do our walk on a beautiful morning. We are so glad to support the foundation that connects Hemi families across the globe, provides information, promotes awareness, and funds research. Without the Hemispherectomy website when you Google "Hemispherectomy" as a scared, nervous parent you would simply find articles entailing all the things that could go wrong and the risks could just make you feel more worried and alone than before. When parents are looking at this option now they find a website with information, contacts, and most importantly stories of hope.
We also had several virtual members that are not pictured we want to thank: Pat Gunnell, Jana Hoffman, and Teri Canfield. We are looking forward to next year!
In just two weeks, we will be packing for another trip to Cleveland, another sleepless night, another tough morning and long worrisome day. However, one thing we know, and that was reinforced on Friday and Saturday is we will not be alone. THANK YOU!
