So, those of you who know me… you know I love to dance. If you do not know me, you should be able to discern from the previous sentence that — I love to dance. It’s that simple. Lately, I have found my boogy-be-boogy-in’-self drawn to the Disco side of the beat. I consider myself [...]

Quiet on the set!

In the words of Maddie’s dad… We are crushed today. Last night Madeline’s pupils failed to react to light, so an emergency CT scan was ordered. The image revealed that Maddie’s precious little brain had hemorrhaged and was severely swollen. We were hoping and praying for good news, but the opposite came. Maddie was pronounced [...]
