Gabriel John Little: October 2007

About Gabriel

He was the baby that doctors said we would never be able to have on our own.

From the moment I was told that I was pregnant, my husband and I knew we had a special little miracle that would steal our hearts forever. Afterall, our first 2 children (which are also special "little" boys) were born by invitro-fertilization. What a wonderful surprise for our family. A third little "Little" and a perfect name for him "Gabriel".

Our family has always felt so blessed and as strange as one may think, we still feel this way. But it was that one day in May 2004 when our whole life was turned upside down and the phrase "Ignorance is Bliss" could have been our motto.

Gabriel, was diagnosed with Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy just days before his 3rd birthday. We will never forget this day. It changed the way we feel each day, the way we will live the rest of our lives, the way we breathe every minute, and the way we appreciate even the simplest of things every second.

We are constantly pursuing many avenues in search of a cure for this horrible disease. Although a cure has still gone undiscovered, we have put our faith in God, and are dedicated to and active in the support of organizations to find the cure.

This website is a dedication to the life of Gabriel, and in recognition of our friends and family, and how much they mean to us.

Please take time to send us your thoughts and prayers. It is these words of encouragement that help keep us going strong.
