2 Brothers with Hemophilia
The journey of two brothers with Severe hemophilia A
Is Hemophilia Ever “Easy?”
My initial thought is "NEVER!" But when you have more than one child with the same bleeding disorder (and severity), you see the differences. Sometimes one brother's hemophilia is easier to manage than the other's.It doesn't make either one more or less important...
What Goes Around Comes Around?
The national team I work on cares for people with bleeding disorders. Honestly, it is a business that involves big money. You wouldn't believe some of the things I have seen in the industry. Bottom line...ethics are not important for those looking to make money. The...
Day and Night
My boys are like day and night."Lance" is 14, creative, artistic, musical and cares nothing about sports (unless it's on the Wii)."Christian" is 5, loves Thomas the Train, anything with wheels, being in the dirt and it looks like he will have a passion for...
Passing the Time
I brought my little "Christian" into the hospital around 11:30 pm on Wednesday to Albuquerque (2 hours from home). He was in tons of pain with an ankle bleed that was not getting better despite our constant infusions. About 45 minutes into the drive I regretted not...
Surprising Myself (an older post that was lost)
I wrote this post on May 12th and it never posted. Some technical issue I guess, so here it is. I have more to tell later :)Last week I was in pretty bad shape. I was not feeling well and my depression took hold of me. Fortunately, things are much better. I have some...

What is on that old VHS?
My husband is on a mission to covert our old VHS tapes to DVD's. He's talked about it for years and has finally started the process. His collection is mainly of old skating videos (he has kept up with all the major figure skating events since 1984...it's his...
Missing Mom
When Mother's Day comes around, and you have no mother to hug, it's sad. You feel alone.I am fortunate enough to have a mother-in-law and my mother's best friend as my "pseudo moms," but it is not the same.My mother died five weeks after my first son was born. It has...
Wondrous Love
I popped in a CD I haven't listened to in a very long time, "Prayer and Plainsong" by Cynthia Clawson. She is absolutely phenomenal! Her spin on hymns spoils you because when you do sing out of the hymnal, you want to sing the "Cynthia Clawson" version.One of my...
Am I Too Passionate?
Back in October, my 14 year old was bullied at school and physically attacked. I've been waiting and waiting for something to happen.Long story short, the Police Department did everything they were supposed to do, filed the report within 24 hours and now the Juvenile...
