A Sanfilippo Story by Grammy L…

Jen shares her thoughts and a picture with Oliver.

A year ago, Oliver had his first dance recital. [Aunt Jess owns a dance studio.] He wore a white button-down shirt with a light blue suit. As he got dressed, his back was towards me, and I pictured him as a high school teenager getting ready for prom.

Just as he did on recital day, my hope is that he is able to dance at his prom, to charm the whole room with his ear to ear smile, to wave to all the familiar faces of those who love him. I want him here, healthy and happy, with the same overflowing joy we felt this day.
