This weekend, Mitch and I had a great time playing with a little girl named Jenna. She's a cute, blonde pixie of a girl with a contagious laugh, and glowing smile, and the ability to charm everyone around her. She had Mitch chasing her, me swimming with her, and both of us playing hide and go seek until we ran out of places to hide.
You'd never know it, but Jenna's very sick. She has a genetic disease called PKD, which basically means her liver, kidneys and spleen are enlarged. In most cases like hers, infants don't live more than a few hours, but she'll be five in October and is doing very well. You can read her story here.
