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.

Mabel

Little Miss Mabel is sick. So sad. Pretty miserable. Fever, cough, and runny nose. Been connected to my hip all day or sleeping on my chest. I hate it when little ones aren't well. Breaks your heart.
