I think our daughter has a lot to do with the choices we make and the positive and hopeful attitude we try to bring to this situation. George reminds me often that our role is to give Sophie balloons, not anchors. We like to believe that getting up and living every day, making our lives as normal as possible, having routines in the house, boldly staring down the dragons, and getting on with the business of making life as good as we can gives her balloons, not anchors.”
