About Me
- Name: Ryan
- Location: Athens, Ga, United States
Our son Ryan was diagnosed with stage 4 Neuroblastoma in 2004. In 2007, my wife Missy was diagnosed with stage 2 triple negative breast cancer. On July 8th, 2009, Missy lost her battle to this horrible disease. 2 days later, on July 10th, Ryan also lost his. Together forever, they both watch over our family now from the heavens above. Below is our families journey through Ryan's treatments, along with the joy and laughter we tried to instill into our daily lives. Those days helped us all cope with the pain and suffering that comes with cancer and it's deadly treatments. Both Missy and Ryan endured high doses of chemo, radiation and surgeries. Over 150 nights spent in the hospital and many, many more days. More transfusions than I could count. Yet both Missy and Ryan took on each day with a positive attitude and warm smile for all their friends. We miss them terribly. They will always be a shining light in our lives.

Intrrrrrrooooduuuuccccing BALTO!
This is Balto!! We've known him since the day he was born and have been able to play with him and watch him grow. He's really only about 5 weeks old, but his mom is pretty much done with him and his siblings. He was a gift from Rick and Barre'. We're missing him already.
His mom is a Siberian Husky (maybe 35 lbs) and his dad was a neighbor German Sherpherd. All I know is Sandy's daddy was a German Shepherd and we got her Easter weekend, too, and she turned out to be the best dog ever! So I'm taking that as a good sign.
