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.

going for a ride!

These two sisters had some fun today!


This "car" toy for Mabel was the best present ANYONE received this Christmas. Each of them take their turns pushing, pulling, riding, and smiling!!




Not sure where Benson was....the usual position is Mabel riding, Benson pushing, and then Claire pushing Benson. It works great. Believe me!
