Welcome to Julia's Site!

This blog is made available for several reasons. First and foremost, to keep those that know Julia current with what is going on with her and her progress. It is also my intention to educate those who do not know Julia about what happened to her, so they can make educated decisions about their own children. I want to welcome those of you with questions about her disease, treatments, and just the general life (the good and the bad) of living with a brain damaged child. Finally, it is a therapeutic release for me, Julia's mom, Susan. I love writing and need to get some of this stuff out of my head and onto "paper". Thank you!

Tourney info...contact shawn..again, copy and paste as my links don't work....

We, Shawn and I, are hosting a charity Softball Tournament on Saturday, October 9th to benefit The Rise School of Denver, a school for children with special needs located in Denver. At this time I feel it is appropriate that I disclose that our daughter, Julia attends the school. However, any proceeds raised will be given directly to the school for materials, tuition assistance for some of the other parents, and the general running of the school, not for Julia's tuition. They run entirely off of private money and donations. You can read more about this amazing school here: http://www.riseschool.org/denver/

Please let me know if you would be interested in bringing a team, looking to play on a team, sponsoring (very important!), or helping out with organizing. Any donation from $1 to $1M would help our cause. Also, please forward this to others that you play with that you think may be interested or be able to put together a team. Any company that donates will be allowed to set up an information table, and/or put a banner at the field, and have their name noted on the printed material and t-shirts.

The price for the tourney will be $225 per team.

We are also working on prizes for teams, so I will be checking to see what everyone prefers but I expect to have some nice awards, t-shirts, etc. Some possible donors include Chick-Fil-A, Direct TV and Microsoft!
The tournament website is www.shawnckelleyrealtor.com

Thank you all for your time and consideration! I know times are tough for all of us, but if you could help, some amazing kids would really benefit. Any questions, please feel free to contact us!

Sorry is some of you get this twice! :)
