My amazing wife Dawn was diagnosed with breast cancer on December 4th 2008 and on December 9th we found out Dawn was pregnant with our second child. So that was some kind of week to say the least. After talking to a few different doctors we found an amazing team of doctors who gave us so much confidence that she could carry the baby full term and that Dawn could start chemo treatments. Well almost nine months later baby Ezri Hale was born healthy and Dawn finished all of her chemo and radiation treatments!! Here is a link to a news story done on Dawn that explains it much better
Dawn is doing great as all her scans are clear and baby Ezri is full of life and giving us a real run for our money!
I was able to attend our first Wonder Ball with our oldest daughter Ainsley for the first time in 2009. What a great night for my daughter and myself. Dawn was able to help Ainsley with her fancy dress and hair and that meant the world to her. Our daughter had the biggest smile on her face all night and for her to have a night out that with no worries of cancer and pregnancy was amazing.
Wonders and Worries also provided a safe place for our family to go and meet up with other families who are going through a life changing experience. We have attended many events and classes and those experiences will stay with us forever!
I encourage you to attend the 2011 Wonder Ball and I promise you and your daughters will have a memory that will last a lifetime!!!
