Our hearts are full of gratitude on this Thankgiving day.   

We are deeply grateful for Vanessa’s healthcare team of heros that have helped get her where she is today. We have had the priviledge of meeting and getting to work with some amazing people. A couple nurses in particular who have known Vanessa since she was an infant and have treated her as if she were their own will always hold a special place in our hearts. 

At the moment we learned our baby girl would need a kidney transplant early in life, without hesitation Stephen wanted to donate his own.  We are grateful he was a kidney match for Vanessa.  Parents are not always a match for their child. 

We are grateful for our family for their endless love and support and walking alongside us in this journey. Thank you for always being there for us, everything from watching our Vince to organizing this COTA campaign for Vanessa.

We are grateful for Vanessa’s health today and hope it continues for years to come.

A very big THANK YOU to everyone who has been generous with their time, donations to COTA, and support. And, to those who have and continue to send their prayers, thank you.

We have so much to be thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving from our family to yours.

Jen & Stephen Pupillo
