Even though I know your little angel is in a better place, it still saddens me that such a beautiful innocent bundle of happiness like Avery is gone. You guys are by far the best parents in the world.

Laura, I am sure that this was not the Mother's Day you had expected or hoped for, but I hope you felt Avery with you today. That you are Avery's mother - and the very best mother she could have ever hoped for - is something that nothing can change and no one can take from you. You, your husband and all of Avery's family are in my thoughts and prayers each day, and even more so today.Christinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10940136991667921857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9188356437468688857.post-22697982119991962682012-05-12T21:30:59.310-07:002012-05-12T21:30:59.310-07:00Thank you Avery, for being part of this world and ...Thank you Avery, for being part of this world and sharing your couragous story!!!, and Happy 6 month Birthday!!!.Your story really moved me and I'm glad I was able to read it, I cried tears of joy, saddness,Your a beautiful little Angel you touched my heart and millions of others around the world!!!, Thank you Avery for that gift..I hope to help keep your dream alive of fightning this terrible disease SMA, by sharing spreading the word and donating and any other means..To Mom and Dad your daughter's courage and your own courage is truly amazing and a gift from God, cause you choose to let Avery live to the fulliest in short time and that is really inspiring, words can't describe how I feel about you guys and of course little Avery..God Bless you Both and you you as well Avery..I will never forget you and all of you will be in my prayers, my thoughts and heart..Chris Poulin Kelowna BC, Canadachris poulinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02556447163167397555noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9188356437468688857.post-10048095567679233152012-05-11T17:31:31.084-07:002012-05-11T17:31:31.084-07:00Little Avery, We all loved you.

Mike, I watched you go through 2 long ,painful, tough journeys with your father then your mother, which was hard for me and can only imagine how hard it was for you, Jen, and Kristy. I love all of you and am honored to call you my friends/cousins. We have so many wonderful memories together and unfortunantly tragities as well. I struggle with how much one beautiful family can have to go through, but am quickly reminded that you all can take what should be the worst moment and turn it into an inspiration to all. I am so proud of you for Insure the Cure and now the amazing awareness you developed through your beautiful daughter for SMA. Keep your head up and your faith strong and know we all love you and your family.<br /><br />With Love Always and Forever,<br />Kathryn Tennyson-EdmondsKit-Kathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17727229713522120628noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9188356437468688857.post-33731901789549965632012-05-11T07:37:57.068-07:002012-05-11T07:37:57.068-07:00Hello Avery,

As strange as this sounds, you have helped me heal from losing my Bella to SMA more than all the shrinks in the world! I no longer feel that Bella was just another forgotten face in this terrible battle. Thru Avery you have given all of us parents that have lost a child to SMA a face. Bella n Avery can play together now and talk about how silly we were with the ridiculous bows (i did it to her too!!). THANK YOU FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY HEART N BELLAS MEMORY WILL LIVE ON THRU AVERY'S COURAGE!!!!!!

I tell everyone I know about it, I share every post you make on facebook, retweet on twitter and just recently created a pin on pinterest trying to help. I have already gotten 3 likes and 2 repins and I just made it yesterday :) I used the picture of Mike and Avery in the hospital bed after her g-tube procedure. I love that they have their arms raised in victory.
