1 Year

1 year, 365 days.

Last year at this time we sat cuddling Riley on our couch feeding her pedialyte and water through a syringe.  Little did we know that the doctor who we saw in the ER that morning had missed the obvious signs that Riley had Bacterial Meningitis.  We rushed her back to the ER early in the AM on the 27th and the rest is... well is what it is.

We spent the first few days not knowing what the future had in store for Riley.  Quite honestly, we prepared to say goodbye.

This has been the toughest year of our life.  The toughest thing we have ever had to face.

Through it all one little girl has shown us that she is braver then anyone we know and is a fighter.  Riley is our hero.

Thank you for being along for the ride.  It's not over and has only just begun.  This is Riley's story and we are here to help her write it.

The video we're posting covers the last year of our lives.  It's long but, how do you cram 1 year in to 20 minutes???  Each song is a song that has helped us to get to today.  Whether we listened to them in times of deep sorrow or times of happiness they are songs that have helped us get to today.  As have each of you.

Thank you for your amazing support.  We look forward to seeing what the next 365 days bring for Miss Riley and our family.  And as always we Fight On!

Love,
Dave, Megan, Logan, Mason and Courageous Riley
