Please honor our toxo babies...

Zelda and Creed will be turning 2 years old this week. They are thriving! But for the rest of their lives, they will have to deal with being born with congenital toxoplasmosis...and so does Fin. He's their friend that they met in Chicago through the Toxoplasmosis study. He was born with the evil parasite, too. His mother also unknowingly contracted the infection while pregnant. It really, really sucks! As parents, we want only the best for our kids, and if that means learning to live in Holland (see a few posts back) - by god, we'll do it!

Please honor our babies and go to Fin's website. His dad will be running the Chicago Marathon with 2 others to raise money for the Toxoplasmosis Study Group to help all of the babies born with this ridiculously strident infection.

Happy Birthday Toxotwins! And love to Fin and his parents! Please donate - pay it forward...www.thefinster.com
