On June 10th, we received the unfortunate news that Abby's bone marrow isn't producing red blood cells, white blood cells or platelets. Basically, it's producing plasma and our time with her is very limited. Needless to say, this news was heartbreaking for me and AC. AC always refers to Abby as her sister and as for me, well, Abby is my constant companion and her sweet face looking up at me has lifted my spirits on numerous occasions.
Luckily, we are blessed with sweet friends that understood the impact this news would have on us, and when I mentioned Mud Mania Madness to them, they were immediately on board. The event is sponsored by the city of Scottsdale and is basically a huge obstacle course for children with the main purpose being to get as covered with mud as one possibly can.

| That's AC in the middle, she's completely submerged. |
 |
| Looking like a bronze statue. |
 |
| I think the smile says it all. |
 |
| Kyle is super funny. |
 |
| I had my fingers crossed that the slip-n-slide would remove some mud |
And I have to add that I love that little AC didn't think twice about jumping into a 3 foot deep mud puddle. I hope she always embraces life with such vigor.
