TeamRachel aka mrskatvon is both a website to gain public awareness of Juvenile Batten Disease (which affects my oldest daughter) as well as a journal to remember the events in our lives.
Rachel was diagnosed with Batten Disease in July 2009 and while we knew something was "not right" we had no idea that such a nightmarish disease existed. There are dozens of nasty, orphan disease which affect people both very young and old.
Aside from dealing with the changes of Batten Disease in my daughter, Rachel, I have tasked myself with making life memorable for all of my children to make sure that (at least) 3 of them grow up to be as well adjusted and happy as possible.
Operation Valentine’s Sushi
Posted by Kat in Valentines
Valentines Day is something that we historically celebrate as a family and we will plan to spend dinner on 2/14 together for many years to come. This year I want to make sushi for dinner as well as a traditional American dinner (mac n cheese) for the children. I have most of the supplies (nori, rice wine vinegar, rice, ginger) but I have never actually made any sushi, although I have eaten a good share of it on the last two cruises I went on. We bought some store made stuff the other day and it was absolutely *HORRIBLE* and an experience I wish never to relive.
If you have any advice, suggestions, links to good websites or ideas I would certainly appreciate it. John has definitely proven himself in our kitchen so I have pretty big shoes to fill. Help!
