<p class=MsoNormal><span style='font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Corbel","sans-serif"'>Carmen,
I have been following your story and I wanted to tell you how inspiring it has
been for me as a fellow foster mom and a basset slave to a little girl who was
so frail thin when I first adopted her that you could see her ribs expand under
her skin when she took in a breath. (Now she’s a little round
butterball and spoiled like you’d never believe! Ha ha) I am
touched every time I read about what you did for that little boy and how lucky
and blessed he is that you came into his life. I know sometimes it feels
like there are so very many that it becomes overwhelming and you feel so sad
that you can’t do more, but I try to remember what someone said once, (probably
on the drool…but I don’t remember), that you may only be able to
save just one, but to that little one that you saved, it means the whole wide
world. You will have a friend for life with him, I know it. He won’t
forget what you did, and now he gets to show you for the rest of his happy days
just how grateful he is! Snooters to you and Kelvin, and thank you for sharing
your inspiring story with all of us.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
