SCID BUDDIES

Emily got to spend a few minutes with the first SCID patient we ever met. Ryan Berger! He is 8 years old and doing FANTASTIC! He and his mom, Deni, came up for a long term checkup so we had fun catching up with each other.
Deni has been such a great support through the years. We met them when Emily had her 1st transplant 7 years ago. It has been so great to have Ryan to look at and know that these kids really can be cured of this disease. You would NEVER be able to tell that he went through all that he did when he was a baby. (He might have a scar or two on his chest but that's it!)
Here's to many happy reunions with all of our SCID friends! We love and pray for you all!

This is exciting to actually see some one else's success!
