A gift from my grandaughter Aly


This was a writing assignment for Aly who is in the 7Th grade and turned 13 today. I cried when I read it but they were happy tears. I told her there was one mistake though. When I was diagnosed I was told 3 to 5 years not 4 to 15. I just celebrated my 5Th year anniversary on Feb 15Th. and I'm working on getting to year 15. : )
