If you scroll down and look on the left side, you'll notice I added our Start! Low Country Heart Walk "thermometer."
Thanks to everyone who has already donated. We really appreciate it, especially since we don't actually make it to the walk each year!

But for those of you who don't know, this is our "pet" charity, the one we actually ask for help with from our family and friends each year. The Children's Hospital of MUSC (Medical University South Carolina in Charleston) is where John was diagnosed with Scimitar Syndrome, where he had his catheterization procedure and where he will have his open heart surgery. We were treated so well there by everyone through a difficult ordeal. We have so much confidence in the doctors and nurses there.

Each year, the Children's Hospital sponsors the "Little Hearts" walk as part of the larger American Heart Association walk in Charleston. I hope that some day we can attend, but for now, we really like to participate by raising some small funds for them.

Anyway, that's the new feature on the blog for today. Thanks for listening to my spiel! I know it's a repetition for a lot of my "audience!"
