Francine

In the last 3 years, my family has been through alot with my sons injury. We have faced 2 surgeries and many shedded tears. Like so many other families we have experienced the ups and downs. Through it all though we found a shining star. When my son was 2 months old, my husband found this web site and Francines web site. Through these sites we found Texas Children's hospital and because of that my son has done so well. I just want to thank Francine for everything she does. She inspires me with her strength and understanding, her willingness to help others even when she herself is facing difficult times. She has reached out to us and been our support through all the touch times. She takes the time to talk to us and give us the knowledge we need to understand this injury our children have.
This is my testimony to her, my thank you for all that she has done for my family.
Francine, From the bottom of my heart I want to thank you and tell you how much you mean to my family. You are our angel. You have helped us when we didn't know what to do. You gave us direction when we had non. You have a heart that is bigger then this whole world, thank you for sharing that heart with us. We love you so very much.
Love,
Kelly, Bernie, Jamie and Matthew

I have to totally agree with everyone. I remember 2 years ago I found Francine's wonderful websit which gave me the understanding and knowledge that I so needed. I have never heard of this injury and i felt so alone. Her knowlede, understanding, strength and compasionate makes it easier for us. You are a true inspiration to the BPI world. A big THANK YOU!!!!!

ditto ditto ditto!! without Francine and her knowledge, emotional support, extra efforts, encouragement, and positive outlook so many people would feel so alone, so many kids would not get the help they need, so many doctors would still be careless.
of course thanks to little Maia too for being such an inspiration.
and thanks to so many more of you out there, Nancy, Louise, Kari, Rachel, Deanna, etc.... too many too name, but family in our cyber hearts.

I, too, would like to thank Francine for all she's done for me. Thank you Francine for your wisdom, wealth of knowledge and information, and for staying up way late at the hospital just chatting. I am grateful to be a part of this community.

I too can't thank Francine enough for the wisdom, friendship, and graciousness she has given to my family. She has truly changed our lives forever, yet remains so humble. She is an amazing woman who has found her purpose on this earth. She is helping thousands of families. She has been there for me like no other friend I have ever had. She listens without judgement, shares worries while omitting a sense of peace. I am thankful for Francine. Without her help, I cant even imagine where we would be, nor do I want to. So Sista' Keep on doin what you are doin'.
Love Ya,
Allison

I think Allison may have put it best. Francine has helped so many of us and continues to do so everyday. I don't know how she finds the time to do it all, but she does. She has never met most of us, but she continues to help the faceless names she sees on the board. So lets give a round of applause to thank this wonderful woman!
