Whatever I bring to life through my mommy, my daddy, and through you.

Don't forget to share my story by following & forwarding my blog, following me on 
Twitter  (AveryBucketList) and Like Me on Facebook (Averys Bucket List)!  The more people who are aware of SMA, the less likely future children will be born with SMA, and the more likely there will be a cure for my friends who already have SMA!

  3. Dearest Baby Avery, I cannot come all the way to Texas to see the movie. I live SO far away in Seattle, WA. But I am so inspired by you and your mommy and daddy. I gave $200 to fight SMA and when I have more money I will give more so you can reach your goal of kicking SMA's tail. I was gonna say SMA's something else but I didn't want to say bad words so your mommy and daddy wouldn't ground us both even though I am all grown up and your all the way up in heaven. I just wanted to make sure and be on the safe side. Millions of people love you SO much Avery.

  4. So good to hear from you Avery:) I check your blog every morning for something new and it always makes me smile when i see a new entry. Your mommy and daddy are doing a great job at keeping your message alive. I'm sure you're very proud. My daughter Reagan is 3 and is super excited to go see the screening of Brave. It's a bonus that we'll be able to help you reach your goal.

    Love from Houston:)

  8. Your story has truly inspired me to be a better mother and person. In the information for the movie it said to wear your Avery T-shirt. Just wondering if t-shirts were available and where?
    God Bless!

  13. Thank you for sharing your beautiful Avery with the world. Thank you for bringing a heightened awareness to this TERRIBLE disease, SMA. I have shared this information with everyone I know, as knowledge is power, especially with SMA. I have two children and had never heard of it before I was linked to your blog via facebook. I truly admire the courage Mike, Laura, Avery and your whole family shows in the face of such a trajedy. Avery will be forever in my heart, as she will in many, many others. Because of your blog, I decided to pursue carrier testing... I figure, it's my body, why shouldn't I know?? I contacted my health insurance company first (BCBS), the person I spoke with had (of course) never heard of SMA or carrier testing. "Why are you being tested? Do you have a family history? Are either of your kids showing signs of this disease?" When I explained that (based on the information I have read, thanks to you) usually there is not a family history of SMA until someone gets it and that approximately 1 in 40 people are carriers, I was then asked for the CPT codes. I then contacted the nurse at my OB/GYN's office. She had also never heard of SMA. She also asked if there was a family history of SMA (reason to show cause for concern). After I explained, she put me on hold and got the codes. I then called my insurance company back and the carrier test is covered (minus any applicable deductible, of course). 45 minutes of time well spent in my eyes. I will have the testing done and take it from there.
    Thank you again for raising awareness regarding SMA. Mike, Laura and family, I wish you peace and happiness for the future.
