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.
Beautiful kiddos Kate!!
you know your kids are gorgeous…but wow! You’ve gotta watch out for Julie as she gets older. That girl is BEAUTIFUL!!! Whoa!
Beautiful pictures Kate, thank you for sharing. I know you said praying for a miracle won’t work, but that won’t stop me from praying for strength for you (((hug)))
