The Wonderful Golf Tournament!!!

Six teams of golfers showed up at noon on Friday, October 19th at the Santa Fe Country Club for the Lyme Disease Awareness Golf Tournament for Nathanael to benefit his stem cell transplant fund at HelpHOPELive. It was incredible to have their support! About 75 more folks showed up for Happy Hour! The raffle was a BIG hit and results can be seen on our facebook wall! We felt HUGELY supported! Thank you, everyone!!!

Mr. Bill Mullen flew in from California to play. As you can see he doesn't mess around. He and his team won and it was a great honor to have him kick our butts!

My best friend from high school, Dawn Marie Bath, totally surprised me as she flew in from Dallas, TX for the day to be with us. It was the best part of the whole thing for me!!! She left her 3 kids at home with hubby Mike and we had a blast! Thank you, Dawnie, for this gift!

Captain Kevan Morshed of the vessel HelpHOPELive and Coach Matt Borst of Team Fundraisingmadness! Their leadership made ALL of this happen to the great benefit of our hearts and Nathanael's health. These guys are our true heroes! We LOVE them!

My mom came and that was the biggest thrill for me, too. Franco seemed to have a swing for golf! Watch out Aunt Geeter! We had to call her off the 13th hole to set up for Happy Hour!

The girls. We played as one woman for 9 holes and then Franco took over!

Kevan and his wife Alex did so much including keeping track of all donations!!! It was a HUGE success and the donations keep coming. I was so impressed with Kev's golfy outfit in the midst of all of it!!! I don't think the golf pro was happy about it though.

Hey! Look at this... me and N on the road. A miracle I had not thought I would see again. Here is the beautiful trophy that Coach Matt Borst had made for us. Now we are two time champs! He is so thoughtful and gave a beautiful speech about us. 

Thank you everyone for your various means of support through love, prayers, encouragement, raffle tickets, hole sponsorships and more! It was SUCH an awesome event full of hard work, but great benefits for the coming year of Nathanael's treatments. We can't thank you enough and we'll keep you posted as best we can. 

MUCH Appreciation,

N, Rox and Family
