Tonight's picture was taken in March of 2007. Mattie was almost five years old here, and in preschool. After school we spent time out on the deck and as you can see Mattie captured all the snow that fell and made little castles with it! This was classic Mattie, because after building with sand or snow, he always wanted to decorate his creations. Usually with something found in nature.

Mattie Miracle wrote a psychosocial chapter for a sarcoma book about a year or so ago. Now that the other authors have finished their chapters, the book is set to be published this year. Very exciting because all the other chapters are on medical care, which is why this psychosocial chapter is such a crucial addition. In any case, I spent several hours proofing this chapter, and since it was written about a year ago, several things needed to be updated as it related to the Psychosocial Standards of Care. Once the book comes out, I will try to share my chapter with my readers.

Vicki, I was scrolling down before I closed my IPAD to get ready and saw the picture of Mattie with his snow castles. I look at all of his pictures through a lens of disbelief. The disbelief comes from just how alive & healthy the pictures, of course, show him to be. It is an absolutely precious Mattie picture. I hope it is one you have framed!
Hard work is often the only thing that saves one from despair!
I am so glad you are Sunny's forever home. He looks like a very loved dog! I hope I get to read your chapter in the Sarcoma book
