Andrew
Andrew was one of our kids from Buffalo. He was all of maybe 4 feet tall and about as cute as they come. Steriods have made him bloated and his cheeks delitfully chubby, and probably just that much more endearing.
The chaperone who came from Buffalo, who was my co-chaperone, told me his hair started falling out on the plane ride to Wisconsin.
He is terminal, and they weren't even sure if he would live long enough to go on the trip.
His nurse, who was also the chaperone from Buffalo, talked to his mom before the trip. Knowing Andrew's time is VERY limited, was she okay giving him up for these days. Honestly, he could have died on the trip.
His mom's response was that Andrew is such a special child, and so wonderful, she just wanted us to have the opportunity to meet him.
I am so blessed that I did get that opportunity.
