Another Pentwater Weekend
Special thanks to Mike who has to keep up with my chores as well as his while I am on bed rest. This weekend my mom insisted I go to the beach and I am really glad she did. It was gorgeous out. She dropped us off and I only had to walk a few feet from the van to get to our spot. It was the best hour of my weekend and much needed...

Friday Friend Special
Meet Carol...
She isn't my friend, but I wish she were. I heard about her almost a year ago and balled my eyes out when I heard her story. She had complications with her second pregnancy that cost her an arm, both legs, and her eyesight. Isn't she beautiful? She also has an amazing husband and two little beauties.
In honor of her one year anniversary of her new life, a silent auction is being held here on June 14, 15, and 16. Sneak peak of some of the items available:
Carol's story and photos pulled from here
Carol Decker, my wife, had an emergency cesarean section on June 10, 2008. After the surgery she developed life-threatening hypotension from a septic pneumonia infection. After fighting for several weeks, the medicine she was on to save her life had the unfortunate side effect of blocking blood flow to her legs, left arm and eyes.
Since then, Carol has had both legs below the knee amputated, her left arm amputated and she is blind. Carol was transferred to Harborview after an extended stay in ICU at Swedish Hospital, which insurance has covered to an extent and the rest we have had to pay for out of pocket. Carol will now begin inpatient rehab, which her insurance will not cover, and is estimated to cost somewhere around $80,000.
Carol, Chloe, Safiya and I just want to say "thank you" to everyone who is helping. Your thoughts, prayers and contributions are not only hard to believe but really have shown us the humanity and compassion that people really have. I hope we have the opportunity to personally thank each and every one of you. Until then, please accept our deepest gratitude and thanks.
Warm Regards,
Scott & Carol Decker
