Benson and Claire were born with a rare genetic disease in which their liver produces too much oxalate--called primary hyperoxaluria. Claire's condition has progressed much faster than Benson's. She was on dialysis since she was 3 months old and for much of that time, did dialysis 3 hours a day, 6 days a week. She receive a much needed kidney / liver transplant on December 18, 2009. It is expected Benson will eventually need similar transplants.

The count down begins



















Benson and Claire's family only have 12 more days in Colorado! They have sold their home in Colorado and plans are set for them to move to Rochester, Minnesota on August 28. They will be only 10 minutes from the Mayo Clinic where Claire's kidney/liver transplant will occur hopefully sometime this winter. Let the packing fun continue!
