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.

saturday

I LOVE watching Benson play soccer! It makes me sooooo happy!! He is really good on offense...but today played some great defense, getting the ball away from the defenders!! He loves playing. It's a win-win-fun-fun situation for viewers and players!!



Mabel found the gravel track next to Benson's soccer game and was completely entertained for the hour. Entertained and a mess!!

Still sucking just about anything she can to her mouth!

Benson must be a natural at soccer; afterall his mom was a pretty good little soccer player also.

Happy Mothers Day, Natalie, soccer mom too.
