The Hemispherectomy Foundation

Today Laura received a parcel all the way from Texas. Cris & Kristi Hall from America have set up The Hemispherectomy Foundation. It is a Foundation in the US to help familes of children (or adults) that have needed to have half their brain removed. They very very kindly sent Laura some gifts of a toy, teddy & beautiful crochet blanket. I swear, the nurses were mesmirised!!!
I had been telling them all about the other children I had been reading up on and then comes this box of pressies for Laura. It was brill. I keep referring back to all the other children we have gotten inspiration from that have had hemispherectomy's. Everybody here thinks its great that we have received messages from America nevermind the thought of sending some beautiful gifts. My Dad is amazed!! We would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for thinking of our little girl many many miles away from you. It was soooo touching it made us cry xxx
