Happy Birthday Crystal!
Ok so I know this has nothing to do with Skyler's illness but I thought it was sweet so I figured I'd share.
Every year for my birthday my mom takes Skyler shopping for a present for me and lets him pick out whatever he wants. He always goes straight for the Halloween section and picks out lots of Halloween things. Last year one of the presents was a black bat, I loved it and hung it from my ceiling all year. I think its so cute because he is actually really picky about the things he picks out. So this year I was bummed that I wouldnt get my Halloween presents from him, but the staff came in and gave me this. Alot of the nurses and doctors working with him signed it. I thought it was really sweet and in a way I got my Halloween present from him :)
Also my mom went shopping and got me this cute Halloween dog that moves and sings the Ghostbusters song and a Toy Story card that sings (because for Skyler its not a card if it doesnt sing) These are things that she thought that Skyler would have picked out for me and she was SO right!
This is a painting that my uncle Eric painted for me and my grandpa made the frame. Its Skyler and me as superheros with other superheros. It also has Christ and Daddy looking down on us from Heaven. I love it!
This is a quilt that my grandma made for Skyler...so perfect!
A big thank you to my family who came and made this such a special day for me. I love you all!!!
Here are Skyler's bracelets. Crystal's brother Ty suprised her by making some bracelets that say "Skyler Strong" on them in yellow, red, and orange. He even got a kid size so all of his cousins could be Skyler Strong too! Before Crystal knew of this surprise she had some bracelets made herself. She made red ones that say "Super Skyler" with the superman logo on each side of the words. Here is a close up of them so you can get a better look. The yellow says "Skyler Strong" and the red says "Super Skyler".

Happy Birthday Crystal! I loved the painting (it made me cry looking at it). You're such an inspiration to mom's like myself (so strong). Prayers and thoughts are always with you and Skyler.
P.S.
I love the bands and would love to purchase one in support of Skyler.
I think you should sell the bracelets too. We would buy some!
Crystal - happy birthday to you - may the Lord just bless you immeasurabley! I am praying for your precious little boy - praying that God will send His healing hand down upon that sweet boy and restore him back to health!
