To my Goosey's medical team

I received a call yesterday from the office of one of Goose's infectious disease doctors and their message from the doctor brought me to tears. Tears of joy, gratitude, love. Those tears have been rare, but it was a welcome relief. It caused me to pause and really think about Goose's team, and as many know, she had quite a large and diverse one! All of my anger has all been directed at God and for a specific reason. I wholeheartedly believe her doctors, every last one of them, did everything they could. I don't doubt that. Ever. Maybe every parent feels like this going through what we did, but I felt like she was special. Not just to us, but to them too. She wasn't just her room number or her patient ID, she was Lucy. And my gratitude to these doctors will remain steadfast. Dr. Williams, Dr. Goyal, Dr. Cheah, Dr. Molitor, Dr. Smith, Dr. Egan, Dr. McBride, Dr. Campos, Dr. Young and so many more- Thank you.

Feels like a lifetime ago, but still one of the most touching photos I have from this summer.
