Benefit

My friends planned an amazing benefit to help raise money for medical and education expenses for Tyrin.  I was blown away by the turnout and the donations.  There was a raffle and silent auction with fabulous prizes.  The event was held at a Bistro in Chanhassen (School of the Wise II) and there were even a bunch of online donations.  I think what surprised me the most was the broad array of people who contributed...some friends/family/colleagues who I see frequently and many who I haven't talked to in years!  I'm so lucky to have this kind of support.  Being a single parent is challenging - both financially and emotionally.  The relief that comes with this is indescribable.  THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!  From the bottom of my heart I appreciate your loving kindness.
