About Hemophilia...

Hemophilia is a rare genetic bleeding disorder in which the blood does not clot normally. Persons with hemophilia are missing or have a low level of a protein needed for normal blood clotting. About 18,000 people in the United States are known to have hemophilia. Hemophilia usually only occurs in males, except for rare exceptions. A person with severe hemophilia means that they have less than one percent clotting factor in their system.

This autumn we put Sandy to sleep after sixteen years of companionship and loyalty to our family. Sandy's entrance into our lives came at a crucial time for us when Dwight was having a major knee bleed that surgery didn't help. In fact it was Sandy and God that helped Dwight escape another knee surgery. Sandy from the start was always Dwight's dog.



Dwight also helped get the workshop roof covered after it was hit by lightning one hot summer weekend when Randy came up from Nashville to help along with Scotty, our next door neighbor.

Once again Dwight has been allowed to be with Case. What fun Case has playing with "his Dwight"...


on the floor...


and reading story books together.



Lots of love and hugs between Dwight and Case.
