2024 concludes a challenging and traumatic year, yet the last two months gifted our family with purpose, hope and healing.

Our purpose has been realized by families, friends and supporters who organized donor registration events around the country. We added over 400 new donors to NMDP and DKMS registries, compassionate humans who are willing to save lives through bone marrow transplants.

Our hope has been lifted through the love and support of family, friends, neighbors, coworkers and generous strangers. Our COTA team, Brandee, Shana and Andrea, helped raise over $44,000. The financial contributions to COTA for Sam allow us to focus our energy on Sam’s treatment and gives us peace as costs begin to mount.

We have received cards, phone calls and texts offering love and support. The comfort provided has carried the emotional weight, illuminated the darkness, elevated our  spirits when overwhelmed by uncertainty and fear.

As we cross the threshold of 2025, because of your devoted, selfless friendship , we walk confidently, filled with promise for a year of health for Sam and peace for our family.

We wish an abundance of health, happiness and love for those you hold most dear.

And as always…let’s keep climbing and reach the Summit with Sam!
