The terror of the past three weeks with all Marsh has been through busied me so much I could not properly express my gratitude.

The support, kindness, good thoughts, huge prayers, skill, and actions of many brought Marsh and me to right now: cuddling at H-O-M-E with Daisy at our feet.

Thank you to the nurses and staff at Upstate.

Thank you Super Smith, Dr. Egan, and the team at Pedatric Cardiology.

Thank you Dr. Friedman, Dr. Kane, Dr. Baird, and the armies of nurses and staff at Boston Children’s.

Thank you to the best big brothers Marsh could ask for.

Thank you to Dan for shouldering a corner of this wild life with us.

Thank you to my family, my grandparents, my grandma, and Marsh’s grandparents for traveling for visits, hand holding, help, and hugs.

Thank you to my sweet step sisters, their partners, and their families for so much I can’t even express at this time.

Thank you to friends like family and the world’s best neighbors who helped to make all of this easier.

Thank you to Marsh’s dad and his tribe for covering the times I could not be there with Marsh.

Thank you to the armies of people who reached out to send good thoughts, prayers, cards, messages, texts, blog shares, and financial help.

Thank you to the S-E team for such kindness.

Thank you to the Sherburne Fire Department and Auxillary for leaning in with heroic force.

Thank you to Dr. Jim for his wisdom, guidance, ears, and reassurance.
