Goodbye 2010


Just a quick update: Dad has gone four weeks in a row without needing a blood transfusion! This is so incredible and we know it's thanks to this new medicine as well as his daily fight, his faith and the faith and support of all his loved ones. Thank you!

When I came home a few weeks ago for Grandma's funeral I was able to spend some real quality time with Dad. (I left the kids home with Conway so I had no distractions or responsibilities). He seemed stronger than he was when I left him a few weeks before and even more determined to continue fighting and be with us for a long, long time.

2010 has been a rough and rocky year for the Roses. But we've learned a lot, grown a lot and become even more united as a family. We hope that 2011 will bring us health and happiness.

Happy New Year.

  1. AMEN! Happy New Year. Although 2010 was rough, I know that in some aspect you have grown as individuals and as a family. You can stand tall and be proud. You all are so awesome and such a joy and inspiration.
    It is indeed an honor to have the oppotunity to call you friends. We keep you all in our thoughts and in our prayers. I am so elated to hear of Kuya Earl's progress.
    As the door to 2010 closes, may 2011 bring you all great joy and peace. May the sincere desires of your heart come to pass.
    Kuya Earl, YOU ROCK! Hugs and love to you and Ate Susan. You are an inspiration.
    God Speed and God Bless.
    Love,
    Rossana & Family
